Worst of the series
This version is plain annoying. It introduces some interesting features, but it takes far too much time to load and has no way to quick retry a level other than waiting for it to end, seeing your score, the load screen again, the main screen, and then selecting it again (and once again the load screen). Game could be fun, but it's way too frustrating. You're supposed to be spending your time DANCING not sitting in load screens. Also, they did away with the very useful tutorial mode that taught you step combinations, which was very helpful for improving your step skill. Why even bother making a game if it isn't at least going to be as well designed and polished as its predecessors. I wouldn't inflict this game on anyone.
Dance Dance Disappointment
I have been a big fan of this series mainly on the Playstation 2, but I decided it was time for a upgrade, so I bought the ddr3 bundle pack. SUPER disappointment, the songs minus 2 or 3(at best) are from bands who are either completely unheard of, or have absolutely no talent, musical capabilities. They might as well have gotten some of the songs from American Idol participants.
Since I'm pretty good/experienced with this type of game, I started right off from the start trying songs on the difficult setting, I was making B's and C's, but couldn't figure out how in the heck I was missing some of the steps. Sure enough my dance pad was a complete *DEFECT*, the back and left arrows have a complete mind of their own, sometimes they respond and sometimes they don't. It took like 5 tries to beat one of the npc's on quest mode, not because the song was hard, but because it was a slow song(with maybe 25 steps at most) and my back and left arrows stopped working about every 2nd step.
As a professional programmer, I can also add that someone did a terrible job writing the code for this, I can run to the bathroom and back before the load screen finishes, which would generally be o.k. in the event that the graphics were so amazing they would blow your mind, but they aren't and the music is terrible, so no excuse for horrible load times.
Bottom line?
If I could get my money back on this purchase, I would!
Meh, it's ok.
I haven't played too many of the "Dance Dance Revolution" games, nor their Marxist alternative, "Dance Dance Counter-Revolution". This particular version reminds me, at least somewhat, why I haven't played too many of them.
First, let's start with the dance mat that comes with the game. It isn't bad or anything, but it's actually a little too big for me (I tend to miss the back button a lot), and it tends to slide across the carpet pretty easily. After each dance session, I have to readjust it. I'm not sure what can be done to resolve that issue, though.
Second, the songs. As you've probably heard by now, several of the ones mentioned on the box ("Tainted Love" and "Sweet Dreams" for example), are missing. I emailed Konami customer service and they were quite good about it and sent me a nice box of DDR swag to make up for the error. So that was good, but the songs being missing is not good. Admittedly this is isolated to this particular version of DDR, but even the songs that are included with the game aren't very good, memorable or popular.
Third, the difficulty. I've found the other DDR games to be somewhat challenging, but this one is a little beyond that. Even on the most basic setting, I have a tough time merely completing the songs, much less scoring well. I still haven't gotten better than a "B" grade.
The graphics and such for this game are decent and about what you'd expect, though the load times are very annoying, and in quest mode there's not an option to repeat a song you messed up on; you just have to go back out of the screen, go through the menu, and start again.
This would've probably been a good first effort, but the thing is this is NOT a first effort and Konami could, and should, have done much better.
