Paranoia Eternal...

My memory fails. Is that the stupid jackhammer one?

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

er...it has a CRAPLOAD of incredibly awkward crossovers at 200 BPM...has a couple jacks, not really very significant though.

My PA is fine on it, I just always get CB's because of the crossover spam.

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

It's pretty cool to read through your progress.
LOL, from not being able to pass 7 footers to almost AA'ing Max 300.
Quite a transformation.

It's a shame you don't have an ITG machiene anywhere around you. You'd be able to progress to the next level.
Anyways, congrats Shash.

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

I am actually REALLY surprised that Shashakiro isn't very good at the arcade styles. I mean he's good, but I guess in my mind, I thought he'd be doing at least 11's on ITG. Congrats on that AA on Max 300, err, close to it. Next time you attempt it, try it on your last stage. I remember the first time I got an extra stage, it was with Max 300. I was ecstatic that I didn't do it with some simple one like Love Shine or something. I hope to hear that you AA it soon man.

Cheers.

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

Well I've been playing basically 7 months with no access to an ITG machine, so it'd be kinda hard to do ITG 11's, considering that I have no way of playing them >< Plus I played the piano for like 8 years before starting FFR, so my fingers were already coordinated and stuff...probably why I got good at it pretty fast.

And I get Extra stage all the time, lol (off of 9's mostly, Waka Laka a couple times too but that's the only 8 I play anymore and I consider it a 9 anyway)...my new practice is to ALWAYS pick Sakura for the extra, it's WAY more fun as an extra than anything else I've tried.

Getting in the 20's for a bunch of 9's...23 HVAM, 27 Orion .78, 20 So Deep, couple others. PA is definitely improving.

EDIT: GAFLBLA WHY CAN'T I AA PARANOIA ETERNAL...I can't even FC it, I ALWAYS get 1 miss somewhere =(

EDIT2: Nevermind, AA'd it =D Only Captain Jack left now...if only this game had a 2.5x speed mod, it'd be so easy =(

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

oh yeah I should speedmod on ddr

wow I really should

holy ****

anyway AA captain jack already it's really easy I could do dat **** like two years ago

the 5th mix steps for paranoia eternal were so gay lmao, the extreme steps are mostly just crossovers and stuff, right? don't really remember

next time I get back in shape I'll see what I can do on max300

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

I totally understand that. Well, if you're ever in Hawaii, I'll take you to the best spot on Hawaii to play ITG.
Are you very far from the nearest machine?

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

Do you ever take a break from DDR? Holy **** you progress fast.

You should go buy ITG and try some 11-13 footers. With your DDR skills, you should be able to easily pass some songs

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

Edit: I am about the same level as you!


By the way, if you have a PlayStation 2, you can get a home version and a pad! Start out at the Ignition pad because you are pretty good, and DDR SuperNova for 130 bucks total, and once you can do 10 footers buy the Colbalt Flux (Similar to those you see in arcades) for I think $200.
Great deal once you have to do pretty fast songs I use that one!

Hey, who said DDR was going to be cheap and non-costly?

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

Dammit Shash, why are you so good at crap with arrows? You know what, I am gonna start playing DDR religiously again just so i can be better than you.

[astroman129]

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

Once you can, buy DDR SuperNova and try Fascination Eternal Love Mix on challenge mode. It is Uber hard once you get to REALLY quick jumps

Re: I played DDR for the first time ever today

Woo, 16 on Matsuri Japan...best yet greatcount on a 9-footer.

My 20 on So Deep is still better, though...haven't been able to do nearly that well since.
