A satisfying DDR strategy . . .

[baka_na_haha]

When I first got DDR Extreme, I went through and did all the songs I could pass easily. Then I went back to the songs I could not pass and tried to improve on them using Training Mode. To my dismay, I found that DDR Extreme's Training Mode is sadistic and only allows you to practice songs faster than the actual song, not slower. If someone needs training,I cannot see that speeding the song up is going to help. Anyway, since Training Mode was totally un-useful for me, I put DDR Extreme away and didn't touch it for several months.

Today, I decided to pull out DDR Extreme and try some of those songs I couldn't pass before - What fun! I actually have improved enough so that I could easily pass many of the songs I failed dismally last time - many with a B! What a boost to the spirits! I think I'll routinely hide one of my games - then when I re-visit it, I'll get a boost of "sudden" improvement.

Paris and I are doing "Only You" (Heavy) for the Walker Family talent show -- from DDR Extreme! So take a look at it -- it's not too hard, just the same pattern with different notes. And a part in the middle that says,

"Party with your mama -- throw your hands up!"

which cracks us up for obvious reasons.

(Maybe doing V (standard), too)

I don't think that strategy works unless you have a similar copy of the game to practice on.

All you need is to have 2 or more different DDR games (and who could have just one - they are like potato chips!) Then you could hide one game and play the other. The skills transfer to various songs. I wonder when they will come out with a new game? (I'm not hooked, am I?)

Hahahaha! You're not hooked! That's a good one.
