Dance Factory (PS2 Game Review)

Hey everyone, over the next few days I'll probably be reviewing quite a few DDR type games, and if you read one of my reviews a few weeks ago, you'll know why.

Here's an overview. So in these type of games, you follow on screen and step to the music and follow the arrows. For this game Dance Factory, the difference is that you can use your own CDs to dance too, but there are 5 default tracks that you can dance to.

The down sides to this game is that the arrows are so spaced out in solo mode, making it harder to see the steps, also the flashing arrows and backgrounds can be a problem, making it hard to see what steps to take. Also I find normal mode very hard, in fact easy is around normal in the usual DDR.

I can't say much about this game but I'd give it a 7/10. I like how you can use your own music, but it'd be cool if it could save tracks because you need to keep swapping discs and load the songs.

Dancing Stage MegaMix (PS2 Game Review)

My cousin got me back into the game again, DDR.... What is DDR??  Dance Dance Revolution, a series produced by Konami. Dancing Stage MegaMix is part of the series. All you do in the game is follow the arrows on screen (Up, Down, Left, Right) and you have a dance pad where you press those keys on, so you"dance" by pressing on the keys.

This particular game has quite a few tracks which have taken my particular liking, and the game can get pretty addictive. I've played on hours on end before. I'm quite eager to play right now but the problem has to do with the mats. They don't quite last long enough. There are metal ones to buy but they are more expensive and at the moment, you can only find them online I think, though PS2 has already become obsolete so everything is becoming harder to find.

My rating is 8/10, these DDR games are so much fun, and with 2 players, it can be pretty fun, especially for parties. Practice does make perfect as you start off from beginner, and work your way up to Ultra Hard mode! Try it out some time!! Until then... Bye!
