Woah, I guess RO is the new Mad Cats. But dude, not even Mad Cats would do that. Hey, we can add this to the archive of things that proove that RO sucks. At least Mad Cats sells cheap stuff for the prices it deserves, RO sells cheap stuff for way too much.

At least they're recycling. That's why their products are so overpriced - they go out of their way to be environmentally conscious.

This is fuxx'd up. They're selling $200 metal pads made with RUSTY METAL. Its like one of those cheap plastic toys they have at doller stores. Only it costs more then one mighty fine dollar.

redoctane is the devil. Seriousely, now their all about making money. Back in the 1.0 and 2.0 ignition days, they were about making a QUALITY PRODUCT! then they decided to make the 3.0 cheaply and sell it for the same price with about as much quality as a $30 ebay ignition. Everything about Redoctane sucks besides ITG, which is good but no DDR.

Ever since they became more commercial and started making games, everything went downhill.

Lets be lil patriots and boycott to buy anything from those redoctane bastards! Redoctane is the british! We will not let the dance pad market fall under redoctanes rule! REBEL!!!

hey, and then we can go and dump all the cheaply made dance pads off the coast of california! MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Red Octane used to be a company that took pride in its work. It's quite depressing what they have become.

At best buy, the most commonly returned item is the Red Octane Ignition pad. Its funny how crappy they really are.

and I was seriously considering buying one of these... thats really funny in a way, cuz on the out side they look so nice but on the inside they must be crappy. does any one know that if it is surface rust or full rust?

mad catz pads are more useful as toilet paper than a dance pad. They bunch up and slide sooooo much, i would rather play with a controller. Less frustration.

almost all dance pad companies suck. No one cares about quality, just about making it as cheaply as possible.. And cobalt fluxes are terribly overpriced. You can make a metal pad of that quality for around...$150. If it was $200 that would be reasonable, but its not.

You know, doesn't our country have an illegal immigrant problem? Why doesn't Cobalt Flux hire the mexicans to do it for pennies, and pass the savings onto us?
