The fact that it was at TGS doesn't matter in this case. Even if it wasn't at TGS at all it still would've been a huge announcement. What people mean is that it's a BIG DEAL and a BIG SURPRISE. Hence calling it a "big announcement." |
Except I AM talking about TGS. And the first post in this thread specifically refers to TGS. So it does matter in this case.

Your knowledge of Konami's business practices is astounding. Where is your source for this information, O wise one?
Seriously, though, to say that a company has tons of people sitting idle that they can put on random projects just because the company is large makes no sense. |
Konami website = corporate data = source of information.
Also, by calling GF/DMV a random project, you are belittling it way more than I am. Unless you want to go and call it a major announcement, in which case it would make sense to put people onto making a real demo. Go on, tell me how this is wrong now please, I need to hear more random whiney rubbish. |

What makes this a big announcment wasn't that it was HUGE WITH CONFETTI AND LIVE BANDS AND REAL ROCKING OUT, it was the fact that holy poopy, they're actually to put GF/DM back on PS2 after how many years.
And it's quite possible that they decided to release GF V DM V for PS2 not too soon before TGS and therefore didn't have time to put together a demo. It's like rmz said - they might be a big, huge company, but their resources aren't limitless. They have people working on stuff for TGA, other people working on the real thing, people working on stuff we don't know about... I very much doubt that they have a whole lot of people sitting around waiting for something to do. |

Hey smart guy, you know what was Konami's actual big announcement?
Hint: MGS4.
Where did their staff focus most of their main energies on?
Probably MGS4.
Could anyone blame them?
Hell no.
Except maybe you.
For some of US that cares, it's just as big of an announcement as MGS4, because we've been waiting for something like this.
Again, how about you just stay out of this topic? You seem to think you know everything about Konami's business practices, so take your abrasiveness and elitism to somewhere like GameFAQs or someplace where people might believe you.

OH MY GOD! I was trying to say that it wasn't a big announcement and you have just proven it for me. How am I being elitist, by being right? Uhh, okay. I don't think I know everything about Konami's business practices, I know how to access their website. *THE INTERNET IS AN EXCELLENT RESOURCE!* Also, for someone that preaches about the use of the English language, I suggest working on your own grammar =)

And tell me to stay out of a topic when you own this forum, or become a moderator or something, till then you're just a less informed person than me, with a very appropriate nickname. *WAVES* |

And uh, yeah try reading the rest of my post. I have squintier Asian eyes than you I'm sure, and I still can read one entire post. Perhaps your attention span is that of a goldfish? Then for that, I recommend Concentra.

This coming from the guy that claims that Konami is a big company, enough that they should be able to spare programmers to make a GFMDV CS demo. Again, maybe you should watch what you say, because you sure contradict yourself a whole lot.

Learn context. I wasn't preaching grammar, smart guy. Try re-reading my post (as you've had quite a problem with that), because I was referring that your "context usage" (you know, something you learned in 4th grade) really sucks. As in, you don't understand how to use words to imply in the correct context. But judging from your subsequent replies, your lack of knowledge and common sense comes out quite openly.

I wasn't acting "like a moderator," I was asking if you're so adamant about being a dickhole to people here and the game, how about leaving this dicussion as common courtesy to the people who care? Maybe you need a bigger clue dropped on that big head of yours.

Ooh someone who has to use my username as if it means something against me. Because we all know that my username reflects the kind of person I am.
Let's keep throwing sand around the playground, shall we?
You're sure giving me a run for my money.

oh man, yes, I will so be all over this when it comes out
flazh, nobody really cares what it looked like at TGS. I know you want to impress people by acting like you know what Konami thinks about the announcement, but it's a big deal to people who like GF&DM. You can look at it as objectively as you want but it makes you look dense as hell if you try to wrap your brain around how literal the hype is. To give you a relevant and recent example that you could maybe understand, everybody spazzed the hell out after Paula Terry said she recorded a new song for a new ddr, and it's not like anyone was like WTF I DOINT GET IT PAULA TERY JUST SAID LIEK 2 SETNECNES ON HER WEBPAEG THATS NOT A BIG DEAL ATALL YOU GUYS AARE FGGITZ. Because if somebody said that, it would make them look like an idiot.
In terms of GF&DM, this announcement is big, period. |

Flazh, just because you don't like the game doesn't mean you need to preach on why its not a big announcement even this game has not seen a console release for a long time now.
And wow, a ps2 with an arcade adapter? How do you know how the game even runs? Have you opened up the machine to look inside or inspected the disc?
That's like saying I could run an arcade DDR on my ps1 because all the arcade machines except Dancing Stage Fusion run on ps1 hardware.

Unless it has the boot up screen with swirls and cubes, it's not 100% there. Just because it uses playstation 2 hardware doesn't mean it's geared for a ps2.

Okay, well your sarcasm is welcome humor... except its correct. You can get one of the arcade DDRs to begin booting on a PS2 though it obviously requires a modchip and is not playable. But it works nontheless.
Also, take a hop over to HERE to see how the internet can be a plethora of information.
Also, I have my DM V and GF V cards in my wallet and play at the arcades regularly, so don't tell me what games I like and don't. Also, for the last friggin time... IT WASN'T A BIG ANNOUNCEMENT AT TGS! THATS WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING! Christ you guys must be blind or something... |

Yes they do. Thats what this thread is about, unless I severly misread the first post (Go read it) that said "AT TGS THIS IS BIG NEWS", not "this is big news for Bemani fans". I would have agreed if it said this.

You do? Well thats news to me. Also WTF? You changed the topic half way through your sentence. For your info, I don't pretend to know what Konami thinks of it (though I expect that they think it will be a success considering that they are making it... you don't really make things that you think will be faliures) and I'm also aware of how big a deal it is to GM/DM fanboys. I never even mentioned either of these things...

That just doesn't really make sense and is a very abstract and bad example. Stop blindly supporting your fellow fanboys, read the post and you will realise that its not something to be contested, it was no big deal AT TGS.
(Look, I didn't write its not a big deal, read the last part of that last sentence till you realise I am talking in context about the topic of this thread.) |

Notice that link to Konami's website thrown in there as a source. TGS doesn't even have anything to do with "Gitadora to return to Japanese consoles!" at all, besides the unrelated fact that it was simply announced there. If anything, the mention of TGS could be considered as nothing more than an "afterthought"  |

Ooops, I went back and read the first post one more time and I skipped over this part:
| Cutriss wrote: | | Konami's BIGGEST ANNOUNCEMENT EVER was at TGS!!! Guitar Freaks V and Drummania V for the Japanese Playstation 2 was UNLEASHED for everybody attending TGS, set up in its own awesome booth that had so many rockin features it would make John Madden blush! Many attendees were hospitalized because they couldn't handle how HUGE and IN YOUR FACE the announcement was! Nobody really cared that it was GF&DM V, instead it was the awesome display of amazing lights and features and playable demos that left everybody IN AWE |
never mind, I stand corrected. I'll learn to read closer next time  |

 How does it work, you mean the laser touching the cd?
And also, I see why you were saying it's not a big announcement...but I don't understand the dissapointment? You're not happy it's coming our way?

There's a very big difference between a DDR machine running on System 573, which is similar to a PSX, and GFV/DMV, which, when you open it up, has nearly an honest-to-god PS2 inside. No, it's not System 246 or anything like that - it's even inside a PS2 chassis.

This is a pretty dumb arguement.
What Flazh is saying is that at TGS, no one really cared about GFDMV, people may have been interested in it but there was no real great hype over it, and it may be related to how it was an unplayable demo.
I'm sure there are plenty of people that didn't go to TGS that are very excited about the game. I just hope it does well and the series can continue on for PS2. I'm gonna preorder this baby the second I can with the ASC, then test it out. I'll be all liek "oh poopy Onihime ext open" and see just how good the guitar is!

| Personally, I think guitar/drummania would go great with the new Revolution. You could use the main converter part for the buttons, then flick the anolog stick(for the guitar). And then you could use the sensor thing for a drummania. They already might have a drum simulation game set up for the Nintendo Revolution. |

cuttres yoru link has popups with teh spyware on it (according to my filters)
also flash do stop trying you arnt making nay headway and you seem to think that an announcement has to be covered with flash and shit to be a major anoucnement this announcement would be just as big with either a huge hotle party with it or just a little old man waling on stage announceing it and then walking off
also MGS 4 is going to suk liek the rest of hte series they screwed up the metal gear series when we didnt get the real number 2 and never got it back on track
