DDR - Any other players out there?

I'm currently not playing for the next 4-6 weeks. The bio explains it all.


(If you don't know what DDR is, then SHAME ON YOU!)

DDR is the Deutsche Demokratische Republic, former Eastern Germany. :)

That could be one thing jstkdn. Actually i believe the one jojo is referring to is, Dance Dance Revolution.

I've seen plenty of the machines in arcades but I never play. I'd be too embarassed is someone I knew saw me. Plus im not a good dancer so Id embarass myself anyways. If it was closing time and i was the only one at the arcade then I MIGHT try it but i wouldnt go all crazy like i see others do. Or if I bought my own personal machine for at home well sure I'll play.

They make PS2 and Xbox versions for the home. You can purchase the soft mats, which don't work as well, or the metal mats for your ps2 or xbox.


No, jstkdn, I am not talking about former Eastern Germany.

Oh, no! You injured yourself? Ouch. That's what you get for freestylin'. I assume you've been playing for over a couple years then?

*been playing DDR for the past year and a half*

I can pretty much do any song, except those nasty tens (and Waka Laka; not used to its step pattern of step-step-jump-step-step-jump). I don't have enough endurance for the Max series. Although, I was surprised someone had their own Max song created on FFR. Interesting. :D

Go ahead, the machines are only $3000 each. :D But I believe Konami's going to stop making machines because their popularity's gone down in Japan. They're going to make more home versions, though, I hear.

I am sadly obsessed with DDr simply because its friggen awesome! Plus Im not so bad at it, if I do say so myself...

I suck at dancing when in public, rock when in confinement. I love DDR.

When I was in the US, I glanced at it. I was actually with detective smartass, and Faeryshan. I did look around, if I could do it, without anyone looking. And decided against it. So I put it away with the excuse "I am too old, I just had a whiskey straight up...I could injure myself."
