Both DDR Extreme and my RedOctane pad arrived at about the same time, it seems. I went to the arcade before I went home today, though, and DDR Extreme was finished being installed and turned on about the time that I got there. Despite two scary (unintended) freezes in the middle of two songs, it works well and is a GREAT mix. It’s got a lot of really cool options, including the ability to practice Oni steps in Normal mode, and the new “MARVELOUS!” rating in Oni courses. James<\/a> full-combo’d his first 9-foot song (ha, I beat him with Matsuri Japan), and Chris<\/a> completed the Naoki Neo-Standard Oni course with a friend. Very good times. We even ordered some pizza at the arcade since I was there so late (huh, great food to eat while playing DDR).<\/p>\n

Then it was off to Jew school as it is every Tuesday, carpoolin’ with Hannah<\/a>. She seemed excited about the new “Beginner” difficulty that DDR Extreme has, but I assured her that she’s better than that. I also told her that she was not the reason that most of her steps at home weren’t being registered – her crappy crappy crappy MadCatz pad was the reason. I’m still beating myself up over buying that for her. Well, it’s better than nothing… I think.<\/p>\n

Speaking about crappy crappy crappy… or perhaps the opposite… as mentioned before, I got my RedOctane Ignition 2.0 pad. It took it out, and it looked exactly like the two that I got over the summer, plus Konamix, all for $70, but what came with it was definitely worth it. The pad, which is said to have superior wiring, and has a much better texture than my previous pads, comes with an inch-thick dense padding to stick inside it, along with a CARRYING CASE! Wow, wow, wow. I will certainly have fun with this pad. I would recommend it, even with its steep price.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
