GD-Man:
It looks like your rite, but i wouldnt jump to conclusions just yet. In DDRMAXUSA R&P used parts of the FMV from telephone operator. So you can toss the background idea in the back(

corny). But as for the steps...
(looks at stepchart)
Cannot conferm it yet.

They dont have a stepchart. One sec...
(plays DWI)
YES! those are the steps. but why are we wasting our time on guessing while we could just ask the mods that went to e3.
How about it guys?

ok,

I looked at the trailer, i looked at the screenshots, im just wondering one thing. I hope they have the oni remixes on ddrmax2-usa. The interface looking at the trailer is alright, a remake of the DDRMAX GUI (thats graphical user interface for you non-geek people) and the songlist is kinda ok from what i'm looking at right now.

Now i think DDRUltramix is a leap of faith for KOA to expand there horizons for the DDR and Benami franchise (if they have a Benami franchise in the US). i like the old skool interface (really nostalgic, reminds me of the pre 5thMIX days) and the songlist so far looks like its going to have some U.S. exclusive tracks for DDR. (yeah we said that for DDRMAX USA and DDR KONAMIX and they end up on the next arcade version)

anyway i'm kinda dissapointed beause i neither own a ps2 or a xbox and been feeling gulity playin stepmania for the past 3 years, and not supporting konami. anyway i'll wait until the x-mas rush to get a new console and ddr game i want.

and looking to the future, what there going to call the next US ddr game ? DDREXTREME:DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION ????

God, can't wait for the MAX2 version. We're finally getting Still In My Heart, all we need now is Do Me.

On the X-Box version nothing seems too too good. Although What is Love? by Tomosuke is awesome

.

Hope we got a Create Oni Mode, YAY Beginner, now I can teach all my friends how to play, and play Beginner when I get tired.

Just wanted to toss my 1/2 cent in..

1) Do It Right was the credit-scroll music for 5th Mix home... of course it was also an unlockable song in that same mix, much like Candy(Star) was in DDRMAX as previously mentioned about 2 pages ago.

2) The exercising rabbit being used in any US MAX2 videos means nothing, mainly because it was used in other songs in Extreme [which lacks TWS, IIRC], and was used in the song BG for Cotton-Eye Joe in one of the Euromixes, I think.

That being said, I'm sure that the JP MAX2 home-"Exclusive"* stuff is probably gonna be in US MAX2.

*Well, you can't really call anything "exclusive" anymore in regards to Konami originals...

It would be a mistake in my opinion to put Paranoia Survivor on the U.S. Max 2 for 1 main reason: The FMV background, since it shows the DDR Extreme arcade cabinet in pieces, and we American ddr players really weren't supposed to know about that game, yet. And parts of that background have flashbacks of that stopwatch backround used in the old ddr games. But, even if they change the background FMV, I think it's still best to wait for the American version of DDR Ex to put the song in, because of the name of the song.

I wouldn't mind the other exclusives from the Jap. Max 2 in our game, in fact they should be in our game.

I know this is sorta of topic, but for Ultra Mix that is to come out for XBox, does that mean that we all have to get new pads for the XBox or is Konami going to make a PS2 to XBox converter like they did when Phantasy Star Online came out to convert from USB to XBox Format?
Does this mean new pads?

I have a picture I took of the X-Box DDR pads at E3 but I don't have anywhere to post it, if you wanna see them I can e-mail it to yah. They look pretty snazzy but aren't that great, about as effective as the old madcat $10 pad.

Kinda on topic Madcat was showing off a pretty cool foam pad at E3 as well, I might have a picture somewhere.
