with things like DLC and online, they will atleast both be on the next version, because next year, we got the PS3

*cheer*
that has an EXTREMLY high cance of having a build in hard drive
hard drive=DLC
and considering thats they are selling ps2s with the network adapter (the online thingy) they will probably have that build in to,
so if those dont make it this round, they will next time almost 4 sure

Konamix used a 'beatmania' category, so it's not as unlikely as you'd think. In any case, there have been one or two US arcade versions of beatmania under the name 'HipHop Mania' or somesuch; they were ports of the Japanese Beatmania Complete Mix 1(?) and 2(I know this exists) with all the licensed songs removed.

Oh, and Mobo*Moga was a DMX song, not Mambo a Go Go. The only songs in the Mambo a Go Go category are Gamelan de Couple and La Bamba.

I'd predict a grouping like this, if group sort is in at all:

Dance Dance Revolution
DDR USA
DDR KONAMIX
DDR MAX
DDR MAX2
DDR EXTREME
beatmania
(possibly other bemani games)

"Dance Dance Revolution" would be the songs that were in 1. the USA PSX release and 2. the first US arcade mix (which is NOT DDR USA). DDR USA would be for the USA Arcade first appearance songs (i.e. Love This Feelin', if it repeated, or Trip Machine LuvMix, or Butterfly I think).

Ummm, yeah, I was sorta hoping that Konami would actually impress me with something that would actually compete with the japanese games, but it looks like they won't. Konami had some serious ground to cover after Max2US and its repeat frenzy (it was fun, but had way too many repeats and was pretty easy). If konami doesn;t do over a 100 songs, I'll stick with Stepmania (the best mix ever

) and Extreme Arcade.

I'd like this mix to be as american as possible, I'm quite fond of the home version us songs.

As far as extreme goes for PS2, I really hope they have some good songs that I really like to just play around on in Extreme period... LIke Heaven is a 57, Higher (Next Morning Mix) and My Summer Love... Those may sound like lame requests for songs in a DDR mix outside of the arcades, and in the US.. Konami has been lazy at least in my opinion and not releasing those songs in the US, or on *ANY* version of DDR in the US... I also like the 80s songs they did for Extreme, MAX2, and MAX.. Like Ordinary World, The Reflex, We Are the Champions, We will Rock You, etc. I would get extreme either way.

About the character unlock feature, just a personal opinion I hope Baby-Lon makes a return I really like the way they did his animation in MAX2, compared to 5th Mix, which wasnt too bad as well.

Now lets see what I found on gamespot oO

in the trailer, they have the roulette being spun through, and it shows songs...oh, also the whole trailer is to mikenko rock

so lets start out with these songs as more then likely being on the game

mikenko rock
Vanity Angel
crash
I do I do I do
speed over beethoven
memories
hyper eurobeat
tears
hold on me
paranoia survivor/ survivor max
let the beat hit em

thats all I could make out from the video so I guess we will have to wait and see...but if those are on the us version most of those are awesome...guess we will have to wait and see...it's a start though...

75% of this thread is useless. Wish lists, arguments, wild assumptions and misinformation interest few who would read these threads looking for relevant news on the new game... if they weren't so full of hot air. KoA could have done a better job on Max and completely boned Max2. Maybe they'll do Extreme right. Maybe they won't. What the thread needs right now is a little more intelligence and a little less ineffectual wanking.

But then, if anyone ever listened to me, I'd get to play this.

okay one thing straight: that i have been seeing in the past home version: i have seen like a theme to each of them...

why you ask? take for example konamix: the songlist was everything konami originals, and most of them being eurobeat, 140-155 bpm songs... MAX was themed with fast songs, ranging from 180-300 bpm mainly MAX300, and the two best paranoias in the series, then in Max 2, were all trance tracks, and licensed tracks, ranging from 125-160 bpm... if i stand correctly.. the theme in DDREX would be speed songs, mainly because the four song that have been announced two of them are fast songs (170bpm) but if that's not the case... well then let's just hope thay don't put any repeats on it... and another thing someone said that in the mix song selection they wouldn't be and disney mix songs... nor para para... there maybe some hope that there going to put Night of Fire, either the Niko version or the Dream version, because the Niko version was in disney mix. but hey anyone can Dream?

well anyway my pickl for the song remain the same especially Dive ~Into Your Heat~ and Dive into the Night hee hee... well anyways i hope this mix is any better than the other two... and one ¿?: is it 100 or 200 + minutes of musik.. really im confused...

ONe thing that always happens, for every unlock, crappy songs are awarded. So i bet this game will probably have sorry unlocks.
We need to get more Challange steps songs, Ecstasy and sexy planet, wtf was those Kakumei challange steps!?!
BAG better be in there! i say that even though it SHOULD be in there cause its extreme, but we thought CANDY <3 was supposed to be on MAX2.

BAG
Brilliant 2 u K.o.g.g 3 mix
Captain jack (Grandale Mix)
MAX. Period
Paranoia Respect
BOOM BOOM DOLLAR!!! K.o.g.g 3 mix

Yay, now we get about 9 months of this:

Maybe it'll have Butterfly.
It won't have Butterfly.
Maybe it'll have Bye Bye Baby Balloon.
It won't have Bye Bye Baby Balloon.
Maybe it'll have Petit Love.
It won't have Petit Love.
OH MY GOD KOA IS IDIOTS
You are an idiot.
But they wouldn't be if it has Butterfly.
Kill me.

But that would effectively kill all people who own metal pads such as the CF. I hope they find some other way IF they even include online play.

Well, it seems there is a new game about 7 months away, right? I look forward to the wishes, the eventual songlist, and the disputes. (lots of them this time...) I'm not sure if this has been addressed but i will go on record saying that I do not think any Karaoke Revolution songs will be on the game; why would anyone think that?

Next, i would like to say that it goes without saying that we can expect the Extra Stage to be Legend of Maxx to no surprise (yes, it's been discussed already, just stating my position). And, i think we can definetly count on some more horrible steps in these new exclusive licenses...whatever they may be, hahaha. My wishes (as always): More than i needed to know, It's Raining Men, So Fabulous So Fierce, and now...Cartoon Heroes along with Paranoia ~Respect~ which i doubt will appear since we have Paranoia Survivor and psM to deal with....alas...it will be another year before seeing that in the States. Sooo, that's where i stand, right now...let's continue...
