Go to the first picture gallery on www.orangeloungeradio.com for a bunch of pictures, and like 3 of my ass while playing Queen of Light.

Interface change, eh?

Well, I'd like to voice my opinion that the "old interface" screenshots look a lot better than the "new interface" screenshots, and that's not even taking the unfinished look of the new interface into account. In the old interface, everything is round. In the new interface, since things are half round, half angular, it just looks dumb. Also, I think the silver stands out quite nicely, while things get sort of muddy when everything, including borders, are just red.

I agree with Brother Mojo (also known as Rancidfish) about the half-angular-half-round, I don't like it.

The arrow decals look amazing though. And the idea of the Red Button (and especially Plaguefox's explanation of it replacing red and green with emoticions) is ingenious.

That's not true.
Changes are still being made. The game for all we know it is not feature frozen or anything.

a little too much red on the grade screen, way to many bugs, whats up[ with the graphic missing thing?

unimpressed so far...

and wow, is it just me, or does every step make way too much noise on the pads?

So this red button - will it be a component of your upgrade it for folks that already have DD...erm...other dancing games?

Oh yeah, and is there any special upgrade info/pricing for folks upgrading from ITG1?

-Other ideas for the red button-

Take a screenshot of arrows moving and such during gameplay! Or take photos of the high scores as well during attract mode for the especially ego-concious. Heck, it could also be used to see the top ten for a particular song/course/difficulty, since it doesn't seem to pop up anytime other than when someone else knocks you off...

I dunno about the whole chording thing though (hold down the red button and press green to sort) - won't that lead to the same accidental selection problems as pressing down left/right/start? How about make red a toggle to sort change difficulty (tap once to enter menu, tap again to leave) - or maybe some sort of user-selectable option between hold/toggle that stays on the USB card? (For more on this issue, try to make a Codec call on the Gamecube version of MGS: The Twin Snakes.)

Hey, you've got UDLR on the console now...how about hand-and-foot-doubles? Or Quad mode?

So, yeah, I know that feature suggestions are the last thing you guys want right now, but think of it as 'just a thought' things for ITG 3 or somesuch.

No, C-mods aren't the same as changing mods. Personally, all the C mods are too fast for me. If they had a C150/C200, I'd be happy. If they had a 2x for the slower part and 1.5 for the faster part *coughtoughenoughcough*, I'd be happier.
