E3: DDR Max 2 and Ultramix

[Hero]

Woo! Konami makes me happy - we have TNMT, Gradius V, and new DDR games. How much more could you ask for?

First stop is DDR Max 2 for PS2. If you played the first Max, or ever touched a dancing game in your life, or played the ever-popular Simon you know the drill. Step to the arrows, follow the beats, and listen to an assortment of deliciously trashy Euro house and poppy Japanese dance anthems. Konami is also aiming to draw in a larger audience by promising more US songs for this release. There were only four songs playable and it plays like any other DDR.

What really suprised me was DDR Ultramix for the XBox, the fabled 'online' DDR. Fable turns to fact real quick when a Konami reps says, plain as day, that Ultramix will offer Xbox Live online play, downloadable songs, and possible voice communication. Now get all the fun of playing against a friend...minus the otaku sweat.

Both are set for a fall release date, so keep your eyes open.

Unique simile. I like it.

I'm no DDR freak. I think that some of the things people do on these machines are amazing, but I am not one of them.

But when you play online, it'll be about points, not style. Therefore, I'll be able to hang a little. Maybe...
