Full PM-box? Change here!

Never tried drunk.
A friend of mine corrupted me once at an arcade (we work in a cinema so its actually in our work area) and got me hooked.
He now has it at home and we play very often.
I can do almost all standard and some heavy, but I started only a few months ago.

Got spare money?

It's funny to see how popular Dance Dance Revolution is in China, where most people (young and old alike) seem to be missing the gene that controls dancing. Most Chinese pople can't dance to save themselves - many can't even pick out the beat of a song, not even in dance music with blasting, pounding beats!

At our school's Christmas party last year, we were treated to the spectacle of about 100 of our students attempting to cut the rug. A British teacher said it reminded him of a similar party when he taught at a school for children with mental disabilities.

Maybe we need more Dance Dance Revolution machines over here!

White people saying that other races don't have rythm(sp). It boggles the mind.

My lovely wife gave me $20 worth of tokens to the local arcade for fathers day, which is when I discovered that boxing game. I went yesterday to play some more... and the damned thing was broken.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Koreans love DDR.

And no, they can't dance. But they can flail very enthusiatically.

All my (girl) students play it.

Oh, come on. Nobody can do it on their first try. Myself, I stood there and complained about how it couldn't be humanly possible.

Um... that's not "awesome".
I'm about as good as you are, but really- consider that there are those who can combo the entirety of, say, an 8-foot song. With the arrows turned off.
On the other hand, maybe that's just pathetic.

Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

ddr? i've seen far more pump-it-up machines in korea than ddr machines...

btw... ddr has a version specifically for the korean market: it's called the korean mix, or some such, and features korean artists, kinda like pump-it-up.

the only real difference between ddr and piu is that ddr has up-down-left-right, while piu is up-right, up-left, center, down-right, down-left.

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

The arcade has others, it's just that DDR was the first Google hit when I typed up "arcade dancing games".
