just wondering. does anyone here play DDR?

[Honis]

I do! But I can't play atm because I work for 10 hours standing and running around. You can imagine, flailing my feet about on a pad isn't something to look forward to after such a shift.

[Haruha Raharu]

Me not, but the girlfriend of a friend plays it.....and be careful, she knows HOW to play......

[Amy]

YES, I do all the time! I even have stepmania downloaded onto my computer. (stepmania is a free dance game like DDR, except you can download your own songs). I've got some FLCL songs on my stepmania, I've got BoA, Asian Kung-Fu Generation, the theme from hare + Guu, some Naruto themes, some FMA themes, and LOTS more. I'm so glad I found stepmania, it's a DDR player's paradise. And it's 100% FREE.

As for DDR, sometimes I go to the mall just to play it. But I haven't been doing that lately, because I found stepmania, and it's so much better because you can pick and choose which songs are on it.

Coolio. il check it out ^_^

[FLCLimax]

Yep, I love ddr. But I can't dance without arrows, eheh...


I usually play at home, but on occasion I'll play at the mall arcade.

[something amazing]

Guitar hero is sooooo much better. DDR is just a way to humiliate myself in front of friends who know how to play it. At least I don't look a complete idiot if I do bad at guitar hero.

yeah, guitar hero IS so much better.........if you're overweight.

The only people who are against DDR are fat people, 'cause they can't play it. I believe that one of the reasons for me staying in shape is playing DDR. It's amazing the excersise you get when playing it!

As for guitar hero....it's okay, my friend has it and it's pretty fun, but it just doesn't compaire to DDR. They're two TOTALLY different games that you can't compaire side by side. With DDR you're moving your legs and getting excersise, and with guitar hero you're just moving your fingers.

lol.yup yup. your damn right ^_^

I, I'm not fat! Pretty much every vidio game doesn't require much movement at all, but does that make all gamers fat? And in that respect, guitar hero makes you move around a lot more than all of those. Guitar hero was given a much higher score in game informer than any DDR game, and I have a lot better time with it than DDR. As for DDR as an exersice routine.... I doubt it has anywhere near the potential healthwise to be as good for you as actually exersicing. I mean, if you think about it it's really just a weird form of jogging in place.

As a subscriber to GI your are right about Guitar Hero getting a high score. but remember that DDR is known worldwide. Its in every mall, arcade and even adventure landing. DDR is way more succcessful than any other move-to-the-beat games. There's DDR soundtracks, t-shirts, and even ddr championships. DDR is certainly better ^_^

whoa whoa whoa! since when has it been that because something is more popular does it mean it is better? And as far as the music itself goes, from what I've heard, the music in DDR is really generic. And bad. On the other hand Guitar Hero uses lots of real rock and punk peices from the 90's to today. I acctually don't own Guitar Hero or DDR, but I've played a lot with both and I had more fun with Guitar Hero.

Try telling that to the DDR fans. Most DDR fans are so hooked to ddr that they probally dont want to experience how "fun" guitar hero really is. Then again, its a matter of opinion. Some people love to dance, some people like to work their fingers.^_^ either that or your just lazy.

[FLCLimax]

well said, thought out arguement. I completely agree with the sorrow.

However, Im not in the greatess fitness of my life either. In-fact, im kinda fat, but for somereason, ddr keeps me going. I can play for hours, and I have played for hours. I absolutely love it. Though soon Im ganna need a new one, since I cleared everything(cept RevengE's songs) with a triple A on ddr ultramix 3. :/ kinda pathetic really. even still, you cant deny ddr's greatness.

You see, most people dont end up liking ddr because when they try it themeselves they see it's not as easy as it looks. It takes practice. Often times, for the first while you play it, you'll do horrible, and not know how to react to it. but the people who just give up, are quiters. DDR rules, and as far as I'm conserned, guitar hero is kinda lame.

[Envy]

I like DDR but I can't get a copy for my GC and I hate playing at the mall because I look like a retard on crack but DDR is preety fun when playing bye myself I give it a 4/5. Sorry had to do that.
