This one is a little nostalgic, but there are much better DDR cabinets around these days.
My favorite DDR game. My fav selection of music with some booty jams. Saber wing will always be a challenge no matter what age I try it at.
It feels extremely empty. I don't know how else to describe it. The story mode feels really bare minimum. The arrow charts are also really random, barely even go to the song playing.
why is the announcer a cholo
This is honestly one of the worst DDR, extremely barebone, buggy, full of meh songs and a style I'm not really digging.
In my journey of playing all the home console versions of DDR on the PS1 & PS2, DDR X was always an enigma to me. I missed out on its release and I hardly knew anything about it other than some of the tracks that popped on YouTube. After testing it out and reading some more about the fan reception, it's embarrassing to know this was the hyped 10th anniversary game to move the series forward. With such an underdeveloped interface, an insufferable new announcer voice, an arcade machine that lagged and cut manufacturing corners...no wonder this thing failed. It failed so hard that the US wouldn't see a new DDR until DDR A. I really tried find some good in this but the entire experience kept getting on my nerves. I didn't care for the song selection (aside from notable JP crossovers). The focus on ""urban"" aesthetic and culture has aged for the worse. The Street Master main campaign would be bearable if it wasn't this basic visual novel escapade. DDR X's only strength is that it's playable and has a few good song picks, but that's really it for me.
