I played ddr a few years back and was totally addicted. My friends and I would play to the point where we'd see arrows if we closed our eyes. I'm gonna get back into it either this summer or in the fall. That's when I'll have my cobalt flux with me in college. It really is a kick ass pad. Back in my prime, I could do some nine footers. I could never do the hard ones like So Deep, but I've been able to pull off Burning Heat and Xenon a few times. On another note, I know it's not Bemani, but anyone else looking forward to the game coming out called Rock Band? It looks like it has potential.
