All of them are way harder than any song you'll ever find on DDR.

You might pass ! with an awful score if you can do PSMO with a high B. If you only know DDR forget like half of the 11s and everything above them.

Well, you won't like the answers, but I will try to do what you say.

I'll start with Pandy, it is the easiest.
Take LoM. Now make it 2 minutes long. Now make a fair amount of the jumps led in by 8ths. Now make a 127 note 8th stream in the middle as opposed to a 33 note one. That's Pandemonium for you.

Vertex

Take Max. Slow it down to 250 for most of the song and have a fairly constant stream 0f 8ths...fortunately, less jumpy than Max. Now gradually speed up from 250 to 306 (Don't worry, 306 is slower than Unlimited and such) Now make it scroll at 612 for no apparent reason. Yeah, similar to Max. Oh yeah, there are a few 16ths at 250.

Go60Go

Hard comparison believe it or not. I guess you can say it is 2 minutes of the non-deathrun section of PSMO. It's not that bad...but MUCH more tiring than anything you'll encounter in DDR.

!

Uncomparable. THis chart is just so weird. Sorry man, oh yeah, better learn how to hit 4 arrows at once.

Tell

Take MaxX Unlimited. Now speed it up 6BPM. Now make every jump in MaxX have 2 8ths preceding it. Now make it 2 minutes long. Now insert mines. Now have two lengthy runs that START in a jump. Good luck.

Delirium

Take the mega long run at the end of Max. Multiply it's length by 2. THe rest of the song is pretty easy and show by no real problem for a high tier DDR player, but that last run is I believe 259 notes.

Determinator

Um, let's put it this way. THere is a longass run in the middle of the song that is more than 10% faster than the 8ths in Fascination MaxX. This is all I'm going to say. You won't pass it. SOrry


I know you didn't want to hear that, but I told the truth. You just mentioned some of the most evil ITG songs......they really don't compare to DDR at all

Basically, the speed 10s in DDR can relate to most 11s in ITG. For example, The legend of MAX's step count - song length ratio is equivalent to that of Xuxa. In other words, if 500/1:30=x/2:00, then x=667; therefore, The legend of MAX stretched to 2:00 long would have about as many steps as Xuxa. And besides, each song have one long fast stream as well as nearly no crossovers.

If you can score well on PSMO, then you could probably do decent on Delirium, Tell, VerTex, !, and Go 60 Go. Decent. If you have slight trouble with 10s on DDR, then there's a very small chance you'll be able to pass any of the songs listed.

You'll fail Determinator and Pandemonium. If all the experience you have is from DDR, there's no chance that you'll pass either of these two.

Edit: Hands R' Us, step count is not the same as difficulty.

And of course, this includes VerTex² and Bloodrush. If you don't know how to execute hands, dodge mines, or survive crossover streams at ridiculous speeds, then you will need to learn these techniques and gain A LOT of ITG experience to pass these songs.

There's no way you'll pass VerTex first try if all you have is experience with DDR. The first mine section will kill first-time players 99% of the time.

I wasn't thinking very thoroughly when I made my previous post.

With only DDR experience, you'd most likely fail VerTex and Delirium as well, since VerTex is loaded with mines, making it hard to read, and since Delirium is loaded with hands for all of the beginning, as well as the death run at the end.

Yeah, after I understood how to dodge mines, I passed VerTex really quickly....like try number 3 after picking up ITG after being well-versed in DDR.

If you can pass PSMO and you get a feel for mines.....and you can read Max......you basically WILL pass VerTex. It just isn't that hard.

Apparently at the top of that list of qualifiers was text in size 1 font saying something along the lines of "these aren't the real qualifiers". Lol phew, thanks anyways
