Thanks Mur =]. When you say "not good" at GF, what do you mean? :O you can only play 50's?

What other Guitar Freak boxes are there in the montreal/south shore area? I know 2000 has the GF8thDM7th box, but I haven't seen any anywhere else.

And.. there isn't an IIDX/Pop'N box anywhere in quebec is there?

Means I didn't play much yet and can barely pass 40s but don't tell anyone

For any questions you may have about arcades whereabouts, this thread will be useful ----> Canada Bemani Machine Locations (UPDATED Sept 18 2007)

I only know 3 or 4 of them. There's a GF11DM10 at Carrefour Angrignon in Lasalle. There's a GF9DM8 in Amusement Atlas Les Galleries de Granby and there's a GF8DM8 (weird) at Amusement 222 in Chateauguay.

There's some 5 keys Beatmania in Quebec (like that complete mix something in Chateauguay) but I've been told there's no IIDX nor Pop'n Music arcade in the whole province.

There's the Orbit in Toronto which has some nice Bemani arcade. We need a place like that here

Where will that place be?

I had so much fun at orbit's unlimited night. I would play any bemani game that no one was on and played the whole night.

AMC Forum is just off china town right ?

Sunday's i'm usually working until 5, but if you're willing to go towards 6-7'ish, i'd be down for sure.

Mur, you're about as good as me as GF then =], we'll jam one day. But the left guitar at 2000+.... it's sketch. Red button jams, green jams, broken wail.

AMC as in near Atwater?

If I'm not wrong, there's already an arcade in there.

Btw I also play 40's in Guitar Freaks. Hardest I can pass would be Magic Music Magic or something in Advanced mode I think its a 51. I do fail any other 47's and higher. The Difficulty isnt very accurate imo.

I guess I'll just stick to In The Groove 2 and Guitar Freaks since they're at the arcade :P
Playstation 2 ........... 99$
Modchip w/ installation ........... 125$
Beatmania US w/ controller ........... 60$
Hours of fun : Priceless.

Of course, that is if you don't mind playing jap mixes on copied DVDs...

You're absolutely right about songs being rated innaccurately. That's why Konami decided to rerate a lot of songs in V3. You can see the new rating for Guitar Freaks here:

http://www.konami.jp/bemani/gfdm/gfd...clevel/gf.html

matduke, 125$ for a mod chip and installation seems really high. A good option would be to buy a magic key chip and install it yourself. ( Yeah I know ReDDeE, we're gonna do that option too one day ) Then again, 125$ is nearly the price I paid for my modchip ALONE 3 years ago LOL

As for my GF ''talents'', this week, I was finally able to pass Die Zauber Flote basic which is a 47 and I already passed Reaching For The Stars advance which is a 48. On a PS2 controller though. At the arcade, the hardest I pass was probably Jet Coaster Girl basic which has been rerated 50 in V3 ( was it a 40 before? I don't remember) Would be nice to jam with people on the same level as me instead of having my ass kicked by ReDDeE

So you're a bit ahead of me. I'm still stuttering a bit on get ready advanced(35?), i've been at a standstill ever since I began to try strumming it up/down alternating instead of just downstrumming, but it's not going very well.
