new to DDR.....

[antoniov218]

Hey guys whats up? I was just wondering how fast some of you got good at this game, I have the xbox version and a modded soft pad and i can do quite a few of the songs on standard (paranioa, absolute, ect.) and only one heavy song (ready, steady,go). I first played DDR at a friends b-day party on his ps2 and got hooked, that was also only a few days ago. Its seems to come pretty easy to me due to my heavy percussion background. I just wanted to know if i am progressing halfway decently or whatever. I also want to try to go to the arcade and try it out for real...

a couple things.

1 - Percussion is where it's at.

2 - You won't get any better at Dance Dance unless you play at the arcade.

That is all.

is it just the playing surface that makes the biggest difference or what? Oh, are the songs that are on the xbox version gonna be in the arcade?? Sorry for the stupid questions EDIT: i think my local arcade has ddrmax2?? unshure tho

Xbox me no likey.. but that's beside the point...

The arcade is an entirely different experience than the home version. Soft mats are the devil incarnate and should be burned upon a stake

You seem to be progessing fine, just don't jump too far ahead of yourself. There's techniques to be learned in Light and Standard modes. I can't figure out how you're passing Ready Steady Go, though...I've played it a few times and still can't A that song, and I'm fine with 9-footers...it's all those off-beats I guess.
