Well, let me start by saying this, I'm totally new to this site and I probably sound like an f'ing noob but eh thats just too bad

.
I use to play DDR for PS2 all the time till my PS2 totally broke down, so I haven't played in about 3 years or so. I recently started playing Stepmania for about 4 months now, and I hear dance mats work perfectly if it has a USB connector. I was thinking of getting a PS2 Controller to USB converter since I still have my mat, or to just buy a new one. I currently have something extremely similar to the RedOctane Ignition 3.0, The only thing thats different is its probably older and looks different, or should I go buy one of those metal mats. And if I buy a metal mat where should I buy it? Cause I'm on a really really tight budget and I don't want to spend over 200 dollars for a metal mat :P. Anyways thanks!
