Yes, there are DDR games for X-box if that is what you are asking. I think there are 3 or 4 games for X-box.

No, but DDR Ultramix 2 on Xbox is the exact same as DDR Extreme 2 on PS2, just the different title.

Extreme 2 and Ultramix 2 have different songlists

 

I think Cobalt Flux is the next best thing to having an arcade pad or machine in your house. Yeah the arcade pad is better but there is only 1 pad that's just as good, the official Konamistyle Arcade Style DDR pad, only 1000 made and it cost around $2000!, pictures and info here:

I tried for a while to buy an arcade machine but they are way out of my price range so I settled on a Japanese PS2 and a Cobalt Flux combination (because I hated how all my favorite songs from the arcade mixes were constantly being left out of the US games and it gave me a chance to try other music games from Konami like Pop N Music, Guitar Freaks, Keyboardmania etc. which Konami refuses to release here). I used to be really obsessed with DDR (have 23 games including 3 versions for Gameboy Color with a dance pad for the Gameboy Color that fits over the system for your fingers), but I lost interest in the series since Konami stopped releasing arcade versions of the game.

I played Extreme 2 on the mall tour Konami did and it seemd good however Stepmania with a good pad owns any councle DDR game

The Cobalt Flux isn't even the best widely available home pad anymore.

 

It has been overtaken by the Blueshark pad, which has the same sensors and recessed arrows as the arcade(although this pad hasn't been time proven like the cobalt, the oldest ones are only 7 months into play).

 

But yes the Cobalt was the best pad in the home market and still has the absolute most solid construction possible for a widely-marketed home pad, but there is no way in crap it lays a finger on the Arcade. Arcade pads can still work after 5 years of constant everyday play by teenagers with sweat, dust, dirt, spilled drinks, and other objects being grinded into the pads. Not to mention the occasional player who stomps at level so that his steps can be heard 70 feet away in a noisy arcade. Plus the fact that with recessed arrows you can find your place much easier.

 

BTW, yes I am a DDRfreak. I've played this game for 2 years and 3 months now and have AA'd Max 300 at the arcade with 37 greats.

OK I have never heard of Blueshark because I just got back into DDR after a year sooo...Ya that does look like a pretty nice pad

 

Man I have to get the PC adapter off lik-sang.com because I almost have all the DDR mixes with I think about 10,000 songs and then I have the Step, N Music addon and boy I really am liking Pop N Music. People should try it out. Its fun.

The thing that concerns me about the Blue Shark is that it's a MyMyBox pad. I know their older metal pads were horrible. It looks interesting and I hope it does last for years like the Cobalt Flux does.

[trustkill22]

Ya, but it looks like it has some potential. So thats a plus.

 

Oh ya and were there old ones the ones that the arrows used to break very easily and always used to be sold on ebay.

[Nemmy]

Wow. That Blueshark looks EXACTLY like an Afterburner. Here's a comparison:

My girlfriend got me into DDR, I usually play on Light but I'm starting to move up to Standard for some of the easier songs. I'm a little ways into Area C on Dance Master mode.
