I passed a 5-foot song in DDR last night!!!

Song difficulty in DDR is measured in feet, and I'm still pretty new at DDR...3, to low 4s are normal for me, and 5s are a big turning point in one's DDR skills, 'cause that's when they start using all the tricky steps...

Happey!

I'da posted this last night, but I went right to bed. Very tired.

I tried DDR. Once.

Maybe if I could practice somewhere that people won't watch me, I would get used to the foot placement, but I can't do it at home. The people in the apartment below wouldn't much care for that, I think.

Anyway, kicking butt at that game takes alot of skill. Congrats on the improvement.

I believe in the existance of magic, not because I have seen proof of its existance, but because I refuse to live in a world where it does not exist.

You can get DDR (I suggest the original for beginners, more 1 and 2 foot songs, though once you get good at 3s, get Konamix) for the Playstation...

You can get cheap pads, but I HIGHLY suggest getting Ignition foam pads. Very sensitive, you can feel the buttons with your feet, they don't slip...We just got them yesterday, and I LOVE them! They do cost a bit, though.

It's a neat kind of game. You got these pads on the floor, with arrows and stuff. On the screen, the arrows fall from the top of the screen, and when they hit the middle, you need to step on the part of the pad that corresponds.

Not quite...

More like, uh... the left arrow appears on the top of the screen, when it hits the middle, gotta step on left pad, or you get a 'miss'. Miss too many times, and it's game over.

Same thing, though.

Left arrow appears on the screen, step on the left pad when the arrow hits the center.

Or if you see the 'left and right' arrows on the screen, gotta step on both.

Stuff like that.

Another fun one is that um-jammer lammy game for PS2. It looks pretty kiddy, but it's HARD.

It looks like soo much fun...I'd have to move my PS2 downstairs so I don't shake the whole damn house :P

Played it once last year....I did Ok...and I think it was a 2-3 foot song

Oh, it's excercise alright.

Jumping around on the buttons, stomping your feet on just the right pad at the right time, you work up a sweat.
