Request Mode... request

Yep.

Ultramix 2 had you enter a Knami Code variant during the credits.

Ultramix 4 had you hover over a long list of menu items on the main menu in sequence.

I got bored of trying to figure out what was going on in Konami's head when they programmed this game, so I just did it the easy way. =/

EDIT: Also, there's absolutely no sign of a 5th image. These four are together on the same texture, along with things like the "Complete!" message. If there was a fifth, there would most likely be some indication of it on here.

And now,

our feature presentation.

It's all downhill from here on out

No flipping clue how you did it, but THANK YOU... again, even though you're a different person than the last person I thanked
but ah, this has to be really frustrating, so everyone who tried to get these is cool.

the thread is going downhill isn't it
must not ruin by fangirling

Um. I guess one last greedy thing, before the thread dies... I already have the final group picture, but if it isn't a headache to get, could you find it in its original quality?

---

I see that the grid lines are part of the picture itself. lol
I'm not sure why this picture wasn't available until now, but thanks anyway. At least we now know what the entire picture looks like.
Now if only someone were able to unlock the pictures legally . . .

Apologies for the huge necrobump, but this one is well-deserved, I promise.

Because, now that I have access to this game again with 1000+ arcade MFCs under my belt, I decided to take a crack at beating this challenge once and for all. I'm not sure if I'm the first person ever to accomplish this legitimately, but regardless, I finally did it.



Also, as a bonus, here's gameplay footage of the FREE MISSION MODE that unlocks as a result.

There's MORE?????

This is not stated on RemyWiki you can write it up now!

I don't know what's more nuts, the fact that they hid more unlockable content behind such an ludicrously difficult goal, or that said content is such a plain, poorly thought through reward that should have just been the game's standard mission mode, much like the one in Extreme CS.

Eh, I'd hardly call the secret mode new content if it's only purpose is to make it more convenient to access all the missions. No extra missions or anything else significant. It's even more useless now if you've already cleared all of them in the first place. I agree that it should've been unlocked after clearing the final mission (the roppongi EVOLVED train).

---

It should of been the game to begin with instead of rolling a dice..

---

I don't have a RemyWiki account (and I'm not interested in creating one either), but just to clarify, it should be just "clear all missions in Dice Master Mode." Nothing to do with Request Mode, sorry if I wasn't clear enough.

---

Now it makes me wonder if X2 was ever ripped to look for cut content since that game is so bad.

---

Wait, if Free Mission Mode can be unlocked without Request Mode, then what does Request Mode unlock? Do both Dice Mission Mode and Request Mode independently unlock Free Mission Mode?

After clearing the last DMM mission, there is a notification that confirms FMM is unlocked (nothing to do with Request Mode). After unlocking the last square in Request Mode, the "COMPLETE!" graphic that was speculated/mined earlier in the thread appears, but otherwise . . . nothing (disappointing, I know).

On the same topic of "stupid hard stuff in X2 PS2 that no one probably bothered to clear", I don't think anyone's ever cleared or even seriously attempted to get to the last Encore Extra Stage.

This is because according to footage ([1], [2], [3]), the game uses Supernova 2's Extra Stage system, where the five bosses get placed in a queue and the first not-yet-unlocked song becomes the special Final Stage, the second becomes the Extra Stage, and the third becomes the Encore Extra Stage.

This means that in order to even see the last Encore Extra Stage (roppongi Evolved)...you must first AA Dead End Groove Radar Special under Extra Stage conditions. The arcades wouldn't even get a mandatory 18 as an Extra Stage until six years later.

That is correct. I own that game and remember how stupid that was.
Dance Dance Revolution is the final stage, then DEGRS, then Roppongi.
Before those are unlocked it's Kimono Princess and Pluto the First.

I thought the order was Dance Dance Revolution -> Pluto the First -> Kimono Princess -> DEGRS -> roppongi Evolved.

In the footage, the first video shows Kimono Princess as an Encore Extra Stage at some point. Then the second and third videos show that unlocking everything gives you Kimono Princess as Final Stage and DEGRS as Extra Stage.

I remembered wrong and got confused on what the footage was supposed to be showing off. You're right, the final 5 songs on the song wheel are ordered by when they are unlocked and played as final / extra / encore extra.
