OK, wait up.

You Don't Wanna Runup is one of my least favorite songs in PIU, but its Double steps are right now my favorite steps in ANY mode. It's just downright fun.

And Prex 2 is excellent not because of new songs. It's great because it has the best and most well-rounded song list from any mix so far (we still have to see about Exceed).

So, uh... there. That's my two cents.

Ive never heard about this "Exceed" (I havent been to Xtreme.net in awhile.) Anyone care to explain why Exceed will be so great? Hopefully, they'll make a full fledged update which is what IVe been waiting for.

I made a thread with the song list for PIU: Exceed. You might wanna check it. It's another one I put in this forum. It's a new mix. It deserves a new thread.

Agreed. True, true.

Prex 2 > Prex > Premiere 2 > Premiere 3 IMO.

Pre3 was the worst out of the Premieres... lol It's unbelievable someone would praise it...

Heck AM even changed some of the steps for the songs from Pre3 in PREX3... probably because the old steps were too easy or made no sense... lol

The Pump is far better than any one I've played before, even Prex 3. Graphical interface is nice too, with loads of new cel shaded backgrounds.
New K-Pop and Banya stuff is mainly hip hop or techno. The thing is, after you pick a song you get to choose what mode you want ie...

Normal
Crazy
Freestyle (Doubles mode)
Step Battle -Displays combo of each player to decide the winner with the highest count

You can play songs in any variation for example a doubles song, single, then expert song.
If you get three A grades you get a bonus 4th stage

There seem to be unlockable modes such as Extra Expert, Maniac and Half Double which appeared towards the end of yesterday.

Andamiro should seriously consider bringing back the old battle mode where you could actually attack your opponent with vanish and other annoyances... they should also bring back Divisions which supplied a solution to playing different modes on seperate sides.

how do you change diffuculty on a Prex machine?

*just the original Prex*

Tsuri · Posted: Fri Mar 05, 2004 9:33 pm Post subject:

You can't, what you select your stuck in -

Mixes where you can :

Extra

PREX2

PREX3

Rebirth (only normal/hard/crazy if you select Divisions, Doubles, or Half Double your stuck)

Premiere 2 (only normal/hard/crazy if you select Divisions, Doubles, or Half Double your stuck)

Exceed

oddly PREX came out after Extra and features an inferior interface.... lol

pump is just a wannabe ddr game

Why are you even bothering to post in here if you have nothing to add to the conversation? And do you even know WHY its a wanna-be DDR? Of course not.

As to STG: Hmm, try some low level Crazy stuff...you could probably pull those off too. Loner is mainly good for trying out jumps and that last spin run. And Run To You...well, its just fun. haha. But stick with it, as the game becomes more fun once you hit crazy mode.

Basically what Tsuri said...didnt want to type all of that because Ive done it enough times already (though the hardware issue is news to me).

And honestly, even if it WERE a knockoff, which is isnt, why cant there be more than one dance game? Im personally glad that there is more than one. Pump did things that DDR would never do...mainly the pad formation, which Im happy for.
