If you're playing at the arcade I think you're playing at, I hope you actually use your own drumsticks...

The songs I'd recommend playing are ATOMS and Mannequin. They have pretty fun charts.

Lolz why are you referring to me?

@The Major

Anyhow he's right.

There are currently two places where you can play GFDM V5 (in G4 and in Megamall). If you try it though, you should play Mannequin and Going My Way

You from Philippines as well? Or you just visit here recently?

I visited some relatives last August and had the fortune of passing by both Ayala Center and SM Megamall Cebu. The former irked me quite a bit with their rubber sticks - those are, like, the worst sticks I've ever played with, bar none; they drained my energy twice as fast and didn't register too well on the drumset to begin with. The best part is that I couldn't find a retailer for drumsticks at Ayala, but I could find them at the SM, which I ended up staying at for a while, so I ended up having to use one of those Internet cafés in order to print out codes for Hi-Speed and Real for the SM's PF 1st.

tl;dr Ayala Center needs a shop to stock drumsticks and SM needs to upgrade their kit. They have, like, I dunno, seven years before my parents drag me over there again or something

Oh so you went to Cebu then. I see I see.

In that case, I think they have GFDM V3 by now if I remember right. Still quite good but yeah, most of their default drum sticks are those metal ones that are damn heavy. You may have to bring your own sticks or ask for them in the counter (some locations let your rent or borrow sticks).

P.S.
In any case, do pass my Metro Manila if you get the chance on your next visit. We (as of April 19, 2009) have two sets of GFDM V5 units:

1) Glorietta 4 @ Ayala Center, Makati
Brand new GFDM V5 Asian version cabinets

2) SM Megamall
Upgraded GFDM V5 Japanese version software.

Hope you do get to pass by there on your next visit.

this question may be outdated

i've stopped playing DM since V2, and i heard about getting Gold-lettered A.DOGMA on V5. i'm curious to know how to get the Gold-lettered A.DOGMA??

also, how does a player reach Infinity stage??? For The Final only comes after the infinity stage(Rock To Infinity) right??

I'll try to answer this one:
The V5 machine that you are playing must have e-amusement (or if it is fully unlocked), otherwise, you cannot access this. Anyways, I can't recall much exactly but you need to reach extra stage and you must clear your extra stage by getting AT LEAST a result of 'S' and have I think 96% perfect.

If you satisfy those conditions, then that's the only time you can get Rock to Infinity (via that method). If you clear that, then you get bonus ending stage (For The Final)

I think
