Dance Dance Revolution X AC (All Regions; JP and US release)

[al2k4]

Are you talking about Poseidon and them comparing it to some mecha anime theme song? It sounds similar, that's all I understand from that. XD

And Xepher came from the same person that did Blind Justice's video: MAYA.

Well, also the B4U/D2R mascot is some kind of mecha.

And some kind of mecha dog is the BRILLIANT 2U/1998 mascot.

Really, anything from Trance Paradise or 姫トラ would be FABULOUS. Those compilations bring back a lot of memories.

You know when the announcer says "you're a dancing MACHINE"?
That's what he's referring to.

That's the problem. Everytime something like that has that kind of video, so many people make threads asking what game or anime it's from. Seriously, I recall going through almost 6 threads about PD&C the 1st month EX2 came out w/ people asking where it was from. Xepher, maybe 2 or 3. DoLL, I think once. Baby's Tears, again, about 4-ish times.

Just wait, when Time Hollow & maybe Trust comes to PS2 on DDR:X, people are gonna be wondering what anime they're from despite Time Hollow's a Japanese DS game. PLEASE have this stuff in the Info section, Konami.

Another location test will be taking place in Osaka from July 25th to July 31st.

Hope they added some new songs or something, but I doubt it :P.

Why isn't KONAMI adding this? I mean, it's been sitting there from the CS bench just waiting it's turn to be called to the arcade arena.

KONAMI, please, for the love of God, instead of making Dead End some crazy sh!++y groove radar whatever, just copy Max. and place it on the arcades, IMO Max.'s charts are easier compared to Faxx or FELM, hell easier than PRO of course.

I think now is the time KONAMI, now is the time....

MAX. is fun.

QFT if they can have crazy shit like Pluto Relinquish ONI and have it only be an 18 I think MAX. isn't too much of a stretch now.

yeah, the expert of Max. can be a 16 considering that speed part at the end, gimmicky but still hard, but if DDR will put a C200 C400 type of mod on DDR X then Max. should be just 15...

they should just add this because it is a decent chart compared to the insane ones like PRO, considering KONAMI is now starting to bombard us with crazy stepcharts combined with fast songs that just stops in the middle then making a nonsense mega rush at the end, you know, the generic formula they also used to create PR.

The Hidden and Sudden both seem to be straight from SN2. I didn't use them myself, but I saw others using them, and they seemed like SN2.

Speaking of which, there is a very interesting glitch on the DDR X location test version (WHICH MIND YOU, THE KONAMI REP HAS ALREADY INFORMED US THAT THEY KNOW ABOUT IT AND IT WILL BE FIXED BEFORE RELEASE), but if you're playing Double Play and you choose hidden or sudden (stealth even), it only affects the left side. Therefore, only the left side will be on hidden/sudden/stealth. Interesting to note, but it bears no effect on the final version.

Also in troopers, konami issued a new monitor (Type B) which was an LCD monitor and had special settings for it in the operator menu. So konami has addressed the issue with the timing and from people that i have talked to that has played at the location test of X, timing was not an issue.

PS X has a really nice full combo splash too =X

That's wonderful, but this isn't IIDX, it's DDR. I don't doubt that Konami will release some sort of sync'ing for the monitor, but there is no official word on whether or not Konami will ever even do this, more or less how well it will work. I'm reporting on information that is 100% factual, not speculative information that has good reason to believe to be true. And...the fact of the matter is there the monitor has a delay, and it causes serious timing issues. You don't have to take my word for it, I mean, I got 2 greats on MaxX Unlimited 2 days ago on SuperNova 2 (you posted your scores for credibility...so I should be able to as well), yet on DDR X I get about 30 greats on every song (and ocassionally goods because of how off the monitor is).

But again, you don't have to take my word for it. My friend Landon (Kaizoku here on BemaniStyle) was at the location test with me yesterday as well, and he can vouch for the monitor delays.

Again, I honestly don't doubt that Konami will release a patch, but that's speculation. Fact is, monitor has delay, and there are timing issues.

[EMAGDNIM]

Wow...by that account, the monitor is wayyyy off...I would think that they would have a final fix for it since it's still in LOC tests.
