The newest mix is already testing in Japan, and looks to the most hardcore in terms of difficulty yet. And with such a varied songlist, there's likely to be little room for complaint.

Hopefully enough to tide us over until the media starts flowing in, or better yet, the version arrives on our side of the planet.

That last post was me, but it was acting up. lol

Same as any other beatmania mix thus far, I imagine. Immensely hardcore and a must play for music fans. Especially since you get to experience much of the Bemani music left out of DDR; by the artists famous in the same game.
Not to mention the background animations which're nothing short of artistic.

Instead of buying a modded PS2, 11 Beatmania games and a controller... why not buy a piano or a keyboard and sound/look cooler, more interested and maybe other people in your house can enjoy it more than the clunk of you hitting a plastic keyboard that doesn't make any remotely good sounds. Seriously, get a piano, learn some classical stuff that's really good.

Beatmania/Keyboard Mania = waste of time. Learn to REALLY play a keyboard instrument.

It's a game, you play it to have fun. I love playing Drummania, but I have absolutely no interest in learning to play the drums, ever. I love IIDX in a totally different way than I love playing the piano. I love DDR and PPP, but I cannot dance in public. Deal with it.

And in terms of playing the piano, I've never liked playing classical music very much. Game music and ragtime is my bag. I'd play some romantic-period stuff, as well, if it weren't for the fact that it's far above my level. Damn you, Liszt.
