beatmania IIDX 16 EMPRESS (AC) (Japan)

>_> And Cleopatra was a Phaoroah...And Marie Antoinette was a Queen Consort...the title was loose. It's about women of power in the role of leadership. It's to attract females into playing the game. I think the woman who's beauty launched a thousand ships is more of a person to have a song then the woman who got beheaded for saying "Let them eat cake." XD I am French and I am saying that. My mother is going to kill me when I see her. Diana was the most popular princess of the British Royalty.

I'm going to have to say no to this.

>_> Yoshitaka named IIDX16 because of female DJs starting to come up in Japan as well as a movie he saw and I believe he did a song for. And he stated he wanted to introduce the game to women.

Despite that HIMIKO is unlocked in EMPRESS, KONAMI is still removing videos of it from Youtube, regardless of what music game it's played on. They took my Stepmania video down last night, and my audio isn't even clean (loud keytapping and not a direct feed.) How long are they possibly going to wait before allowing videos of the song? They couldn't possibly keep taking the videos down after the OST comes out. That's my guess as to what they're waiting for. But seriously? The song's unlocked. Why are they still removing videos of it?

GOLD is for now my favorite mix, so I disagree with this statement. Of course, when TROOPERS comes out and I can finally play the damn songs on it, I'm sure GOLD will be my 2nd. But still.
And I think EMRPESS is pretty good too. One bad OMES does not make the whole mix suck. I also give it some credit for all the slake revivals.

3y3s was awesome. Noone can deny that.

If you ask me, IIDX is just going to keep getting worse (artists like Yoshitaka lured people in with good music and now are just composing crap). If this is what EMPRESS is like, I'm afraid of how 17th style will be.

"Marie Antoinette" is really French sounding ^__^ ! That's sort of music we have during the 18th era. More info on Wikipedia (english)

Also, Sota impressed me with "Arabian Night Rave" ! The arabic and electro sounds watch very very well =) !

VERY well.

True, although as a Frenchman you should be more aware than anyone that a) she didn't actually say it (It was said by the Spanish princess Maria Theresa) b) the actual translation is "qu'ils mangent de la brioche" a.k.a "Let them eat brioche"

And Diana was not only the most popular princess of British royalty, she is the ONLY member of royalty to EVER have been popular

Personally, I really like Himiko, and although I can see why Konami would want to remove every video of it being played, they're locking the stable door after the horse has bolted. They're also being rather inconsiderate to us Brits, who are probably never going to have an arcade machine to play it on anyway.

Also, Diana wouldn't be Baroque Core. It'd be ELTON JOHN CORE.

>_> Funny enough I do know that. I can't use it for my argument if you kick my feet out from under me. And to make it all better. Marie Antoinette wasn't french at all. She was actually Austrian, and he name was Maria Antonia. "S’ils n’ont plus de pain, qu’ils mangent de la brioche" There is a version of Brioche that is a cake. Brioche des Rois.

But still I don't feel comfortable with only 3 EMPRESS PLACE Extra Stages and Then The One More Extra Stage That Soon. Cause none of the charts for these are really that hard. I mean they were really hard in DJ Troopers but they at least challenged you.

Military Splash effect.

Himiko being played (fails halfway)

Bump: and Arabian Rave Night

Both have pretty nice videos/animations.

Himiko is really stupid, as expected.

Indeed.

Ha

I lol'ed. Yoshitaka fail XD

Soon as i saw that i took a picture with my camera phone immediately. Perfect timing too considering how average empress is, and how bad he's made it.
