I don't understand it. I saw some guy playing it and he was using his hands and stuff. When do you know when to use your hands?
Pump It Up, being a very breakdance-ish orientated game, has lotsandlots of songs where there are three or four arrows at once. Obviously, people only have two feet, so you have to use your hand to hit the other one(s).

no... this guy is talking about this machine (i know what he means) where you dance on 4 i think (not sure I don't play this one) and move your hands ABOVE the pad above these 2 orbs.
That's ez2dancer, my personal favourite dance game. There are light sensors above and below the 'orbs', and there are three floor arrows. When a blue circle comes up the screen on the left side, you wave your hand over the left sensor, etc. If you're playing on 'real' mode, then you get green circles too, which mean you wave your hand under the sensor.


The funniest thing is when clueless people come along to try and play the game, and don't realise that the hand sensors are.. well.. sensors. First they can't figure out how to start the game (you press the 'down' arrow to select things, there's no 'start' button), and then they claim that the machine keeps changing difficulty/song by itself.. (as the left/right sensors change song).

What's even funnier is when people get past that stage and realise they're sensors, but instead of waving their hands over the sensors, they slap them like bongos. It never fails to amuse me!
