Dance Dance Revolution

A couple of weeks ago, I was introduced to the wonder of Flash Flash Revolution. It has since infested the office, draining away ‘valuable’ work time as we try hard to master the LEFT-UP-DOWN-RIGHT arrow combination in all sorts of iterations.

Today, I stopped at Best Buy on my lunch break and two employees there had a DDR PlayStation2 game set up for people to try, complete with the mats. I avoided it, to save myself the embarrassment, but it is funny that I suddenly can’t get away from the thing.

The FFR game recently had an upgrade. The new version is a little more tedious to menu through, but the additional songs are well worth it. There are some great challenging tunes on there now. Still, I don’t try anything harder than the ))))) level. It’s much easier to play on a full-size keyboard, too. Laptops are not recommended with FFR.

    You know, you weren’t that bad at DDR. You should give yourself a little bit of credit. I’ve seen people do much worse their first time.

    As for the mats they have for the Playstation 2, in my experience, they don’t work very well. It all depends on the surface and what level song you are playing.

    And, you know, the guys around work here are surprised enough by the fact that I’ve EVER played the game that they want us all to go up to Dave and Busters sometime, just to watch me play. UGH

    Of course, none of them want that drive, since they all live south of Morristown. Losers. ;-)

    But, thanks. I miss that monkey level, even if it is the DDR rip-off version.

    I don’t think I’ve touched a DDR machine now in about 8 or 10 months.
