DanceDanceRevolution (PS3 & Xbox 360) (International)

Curious question: if octo-mode uses two pads will the relevant steps be put into Doubles charts and the PS2 (or possibly Wii) charts be used for standard mode? I ask this because it's likely the PS2 version will feature it's own set of Doubles charts which could be different from the 360/PS3 octo-mode ones so I guess my questions is which would be used over the other?

My understanding is that octomode normally only uses one pad. Trying to make an octomode singles chart a standard doubles chart would just be begging for a terrible chart in one playmode. They might make octomode doubles though, 8 arrows on each pad, 16 total. They've already shown they're not shy about using tiny arrows with the Wii 4-player mode, so I don't see any reason why they couldn't handle octo doubles or octo versus the same way.
If I had say, $10K saved up, I'd probably get a PS3 and the PS3 version to try out octomode, and see how they handle it.

I'm still debating about which verison to get. I might wait a day after it comes out to decide between PS3/360. With the 360 verison, I already have pads from the Universe games. I can also get Microsoft point deals more frequently than PSN point cards, which is good for the 150+ dlc songs they have coming.

This is the reason I bought a PS3 those many years ago.

I think I'll pass on the PS2 verision though, mainly due to the lack of DLC feature, plus the PS2 mixes tend to not run well on LCD HDTVs, same with the Wii versions. I'm hoping the 360/PS3 versions have timing features for HDTV support.

I might get the stepmania version
