DDR PS3 Compatibility Issues.

Resonance|ESK · 11-21-2006, 10:41 PM

I was over at IGN and noticed a article about Sony updating their site with a compat. issue search engine thing-ie. So I went and searched in IIDX and it didn't find the game so I searched in DDR and it says that all the PS2 DDRs work with "No major problems for this title."

This could be news it could be... not.

Like to the search thing-ie is here.

That's a good thing, a good thing! ^^

well we expected this to happen. there's always a glitch in the new systems, but at least DDR wasn't affected.

I think the bigger concern should be towards the Japanese versions.

True but it doesn't list any Japanese games. I tried "BeatMania IIDX" and "Pop'n Music" and nothing came up.

So, it will play Japanese games then? Without a flip-top or anything?

You're not going to get Japanese games on an American site obviously.

I haven't seen any mods floating around yet, but I'm guessing you're going to have to either stick with your modded/jp PS2 or buy a Japanese PS3 =\

it's region free like the PSP, but only with PS3 titles

Into the USB ports, via the PS2-PS3 controller converter that Gamestop is selling. Since it hasn't been released yet though, we've got no idea if lag is going to be an issue with music games. My money is on yes.

Apparently 6th mix has some BG/Memory card issues.

darkamdusias · 11-25-2006, 03:06 AM

6th Mix JP or US?

JP.

Also, none of your old music controllers will work, fullstop period.

Not even with converters?

Will rhythm music games even start being released for the ps3? They don't need the additional processing power, at least not yet.

Plus PS3's price is too high for me at the moment...

Na they won't stop making rhythm games for PS3, it makes a lot of money too. So Konami is probably making another DDR Arcade version soon or a PS3 one too. Just cuz XBOX 360 has the first "next-gen" DDR game doesn't mean the PS3 won't have a better one.
