I fucking love this version of the song, it's better than the original AND the 2003 remix. Here's hoping that it gets into Empress CS as a revival :>

The extended version of e-motion 2003 sounds like it can be played at a party.

Anyway, How is BMIII's graphics? Is it comparable to IIDX because i have never seen one in my country.

Nope, it wasn't comparable to IIDX graphics-wise. It was more of a slight upgrade from the 5-key games (and BMIII is basically a 5-key game lol, with an addition of a pedal).

Better see this vid of the BMIII demo loop: YouTube - beatmania III - Opening & Demo loop

uhhh BMIII's graphics were way better than IIDX at the time

IIDX was still running on PSX-based hardware back then (with a video CD player for the movies) whereas BMIII had much more powerful hardware. Other than the videos BMIII kicked IIDX's ass in terms of graphics

For comparison, here's IIDX 3rd Style, which was released about the same time as BMIII:
YouTube - IIDX Sessions #04: 3rd Style

And here's a complete round of BMIII for a better comparison:
YouTube - beatmania III - Game Playing & Ending

And here's BM 5th Mix, the Beatmania I equivalent of BMIII to show it's more than just "a slight upgrade" (I even used a video of the AC version which has better graphics than the CS version):
YouTube - Beatmania 5th Mix

EDIT: More comparison:
YouTube - beatmania THE FINAL - Opening & Demo loop
YouTube - beatmania IIDX 7th style - ????????(2)
YouTube - beatmaniaIII THE FINAL - Game Playing & Ending

Wow, 2DX 7th made BM The Final look better. what if Konami finally went insane and made BM GOLD. It's basically 2DX GOLD with some changes and all songs are 5-key charts and GOLD RUSH's lyrics were changed for this.

Nowadays, I do play more of IIDX compared to any 5-key (even though there are more 5-key machines in the public compared to IIDX machines where I'm from). Personally for me, there were three things that were most memorable about 5-key:
1) Old school that's cool
2) Free Scratch ftw (it would be cool if BMIIDX could apply this in the future hehe)
3) Pink Dream (seriously, the best Pink Pong trance song ever!!!)

5-key is amazing.... and holds some of my fondest, earliest memories of beatmania. When I was in Japan I bought a J-PSX and every BM game, so I fire it up every once in a while and have a good time.

I STILL can't fully unlock BM 5th Mix....I have no idea why, as I've cleared every course...every song...and EVERYTHING you could imagine...anyone have any ideas? I just cant get the bonus edit songs to open up in the REAL game ..I know its possible...

5 key is still awesome to play, and its great that Konami is putting most of their songs from III, 7th mix, and THE FINAL into IIDX (and Pop'n!) games, but still it would have been great if they could have finished the CS lineup.

There are a few bmIII 7th mixes around here (and no IIDX whatsoever) so it is definitely still fun to play.
