    I played Pump It Up today

    I went to see 300 today, and the theater had a Pump It Up machine, and I had some spare money on me so I figured "Why not?"

    I failed all four of the songs I played, but it was a really good experience, I was actually getting some combos in. I'm really good at getting combos of misses, rofl.

    It was way different than playing on a keyboard. My legs are tired and stuff, but it's a good feeling. Maybe I'll go play it again sometime.

    I wanna play DDR now. It'll probably be easier, rofl.

    Yeah DDR is way much easier then PIU. I play all types of music games, so I cant say PIU is better then DDR, but I play ITG and PIU the most. Its was good that you tried something new, unlike other DDR players who don't even play PIU and clain that its gay. But I enjoy PIU a lot! We have Pump It Up NX at UC Davis in California. And don't worry. If you play Pump It Up more often. DDR will be very easy to you, because ITG and PIU clain to have a better stamina builder unlike DDR.

    BTW. Which PIU version was it anyways?

      About the only problem I have with PIU is that the center pad often throws me off. Another thing I dislike about it is that the pads seem further apart than DDR or ITG.

      I believe that the first time that I actually did decent at it was when Keith and Devon (Devon is a girl) were playing, when Devon just fell off. I was being a gentleman, and hopped on and finished for her.

        Anyone ever play Dance Maniax 2nd Mix? They have it at an arcade down here in Casselberry called Rocky's Replay. It's pretty fun and easy to learn. YouTube search Dance Maniax, you'll see what I'm talking about. Some really good players use their legs, elbows, knees, and dance while playing. o_O Insane.

          You mean the game where they move their hands over and under horizontally-placed sensors?

          I have a video of some guy named Saikonip (or something of that nature) freestyling to Dynamite Rave. That's about the only good video I have.

              A lot of people have been saying that, and I didn't even start the "LOL, [subject]" trend. I feel like a plagiarist >_<.

                  I find the timing window too large for some reason.
                  I played PUI at the mall, and I AAA'd (or PUI equivalent) all 3 songs.
                  It was on easy, because I suck at that game.

                        Canon-D is an awesome song. Freaking hard though. I can only C it on crazy.

                          Yeah. I've play Dance Freaks (Korean version of Dance Maniax) over at my arcade a while ago, and Dance Maniax 2 at my nickle arcade (which is now gone ). They are pretty neat games. I enjoy the arm movement.

                            Ok. It was pump It Up Exceed 2 then. We use to have it here in Sacramento, but they got rid of it, so there is no more PIU in Sacramento anymore.

                            I have to play over in Davis California, which isn't to far away. They currently have Pump It Up NX over there, so I play there. Not really thst great of a game though. I love the Zero interface a whole lot better.
