So in other words:

By the time I get my tax money I will be able to buy a cool game!!

I'm really looking forward to this. If anything can help my high-speed reading skillz this game will. For example, I find it nearly impossible to DDR or CCR consistently 300BPM 8ths. Perhaps with 7 key I'll be able to process more eventually and boom baby! I could actually ccr and eventually ddr the 9's and 10's in ddr.

unless their shipping limitations have changed over the past few years, you have to buy through a third party company like rinkya.com to actually get your items if you live outside of japan. thats what i had to do several years ago to get my konami ASC when they were brand new and not available through american distributors. its a big pain in the ass and there are more fees than you can shake a stick at.

Hate to break your conversation, but does anyone know where I an find Beatmania videos? I've read that Last Message has a infamous 3-second scene that causes people to break their combo.

Bemanistyle used to (might still do) host a flood of IIDX videos. You might still find them over there. I guess you could also bug people on VJarmy but I bet they won't be as friendly.

New logo and new dj, obviously. So, who's the new dj?

In addition, should I expect GFdm originals (like in Happy Sky)? In relation, any confirmed songs?

Update: Stupid me, I forgot to point out I'm talking about the IIDX 13 poster!

If you're talking about Beatmania US for PS2 58 songs are on the demo (if only most are grayed out) and I figure it doesn't guarantee that all of them are on the finished game but anyway...

Check the last couple pages of the PS2 Beatmania Redated thread for that list.

If not, you can ignore my post!

Quick question: What's the hardest song in all of Beatmania-ism? (Like PSMO is for DDR)

Wermo · Trick Member Joined: 24 Jun 2005 Location: Hamilton ON

I'm sure the hardest Beatmania song won't be on our first mix although I understand from posts here and elsewhere that V Another is tough and so is Ska a go go or whatever it's called. Apparently PSMO is easier on Beatmania than V by far.

PSM on IIDX is SNORE

The hardest song (other than what DistorteD has that I havn't seen yet) to normal clear is either One More Lovely or Sasoribi. Hardest to Hard Clear is Mei. Mei is the only song on Single that hasn't been AAAed.

That's just on single; double still has songs that havn't been passed yet.

Very very noobish q's:

normal clear vs hard clear?

It Beatmania all about score? Can you fail midsong?

Normal clear=You need 80% at the end of the song. If you lose all your gauge, you can still bring it back up for a clear.

Hard clear=You need to finish with any % over 0. Life falls much faster, and if you hit 0 you fail instantly.

Ah, that's a nice poster.

Anyway, I wanna import 10th Style but I don't wanna get a fliptop...I'm clumsy as it is, and it looks way too much of a hassle.

Does the Slide Key thinger work alright?
