Everyone was wondering if KONAMI comes up with conversion kits for DDRX. And well the good news is that they will be released on 28th January 09. Cool isn’t it?

The special site was open on 10th of December and everyone awaits the release of the Japanese DDRX arcade machine.
Wonder how it looks like when new cabinets are being made?

We got a new TV, which is pretty nice Samsung HDTV. So I tried playing some DJ Troopers on it. The problem was that I was getting all goods with few greats (40). So I wanted to compare AC data vs PS2 data on the TV.

I found out this…
Happy Sky AC

-huge video lag (if played according to the rhythm the notes disappear on the targets, not the case of plasma TVs)
-no audio problem (can sync to audio thus^_^)
-clear image (looks so nice)

Happy Sky CS

-huge video lag (bleeee)
-some kind of weird audio problem (ehm IT’S OFFFFFFFF, can’t sync with it at all)
-pretty blurry image (does not look nice at all-_-)
-desaturated colors (I would be fine with this playing gold^_^ maybe it would render it playable)
-ghost notes at higher speed (erm…sucks)
-actually the fact that HS CS has such a f*cked up timing made it almost playable on this setup o_O

note: as you can see AC data is on P1 and PS2 on P2.

Happy New Year from Czech DDR!

Credit goes to Molik who got this very cool idea

this was painful…

note: I don’t know if it’s just me but the video seems to a bit faster than the sound…I noticed this at frontal impact and now this video seems off as well…hm. But well I will probably continue uploading here till I find a place I can store the video in its original (processed) form.

It’s been long time since I wanted to dance this routine…so here goes my today’s attempt

I had this song stuck in my head for months so I decided to take a video of that routine. I did not have the original video as a reference so sometimes it’s a bit messed up.

Also found out that I should be wearing something darker^_~

I just felt like doing a video of me doing Para Para, but I had to choose something not from Avex Trax and I tried to play it from something legal^_~. Anyway here’s the outcome. I might shoot more…(Hold on me and Fantasy comes to my mind)

I can’t take this anymore…what the title says is what is happening. Well, Pentavision in KONAMI’s view infringes their patents by producing DJ MAX series games. (you can see the similarities with Beatmania/IIDX games)

Do something like this on 24/12/08 is quite alarming.

I think it says it all! DJ Troopers CS is out. So make sure to buy a copy if you like the game.
(I will treasure mine^_^)
