Binky: Do it =p Watching someone toddle around on a pad padded(yum, alliteration) can be pretty cute
Ace: Lol, something you have to come to terms with as a dance gamer. All of it looks retarded. Either you're holding a bar and moving your legs around a ton, or standing centered over four arrows and essentially hopping up and down to the beat, maybe turning a little here and there. The exception to this is freestyle which has fallen to the wayside long ago(and lol, freestyles were almost universally performed on light or standard mode). Thing is, if you play hard shit(or easier stuff even, to the common person), people generally recognize the difficulty and disregard how awkward the player looks.
Anyways, as to my playing stuff. I play ITG more than didder but I enjoy both quite a bit ^.^ I admit I stopped playing konami games for quite a while after Supernova got released, big disappointment after Max2 and EX. Also, lol Fascination Max and FELM.
I've played since I was 16 and enjoyed every bit of it though ^.^ 23 AAAs back on Extreme and a ton of ***s on 9s with ITG so far. One *** on a 10(remember december). Songs that still elude my passing are Vertex^2, FELM/FAXX on extra stage for SN, and anything from SN2 on since I haven't touched 'em =/
I'm back to playing didder now since our dedicab for ITG2 needs a new video card and lags like crazy. Still use it to play custom songs, but serious practice gets done on a decent SN2 machine we have. I still haven't touched extra stage on there though since I refuse to play Unreal. Terrible chart.
Edit: Reread and I sounded like an ass, sorry =/
