"Konami's DDR lineup this fall will complement the publisher's return to the rock genre with Rock Revolution. Bearing more than a passing resemblance to MTV Games' Rock Band and Activision's Guitar Hero IV, the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 editions of Rock Revolution offers guitars, drums, vocals, and song downloads."

Just when I was ready to call Activision cheaters by coming out with a "Guitar Hero" Band game, here comes Konami with their own game. Granted, GH4 might be better than Rock Band and so might this game (although the chances are slimmer), but I can't help but feel that Rock Band created a new genre: the BAND game.

I'm already sold for GH4 due to the Create-a-Song feature.

"I predicted DDR X over 5 years ago! When DDR Extreme came out, I said once the 10th DDR game was released in arcades, it would be called DDR X."

Wow...do you want a cookie or something?

wait... i just realized... how come they are taking one out for the ps2 and not ps3????.... by the way... they better fix all the bugs and such in hottest party -_-'

I hate how they keep putting out American music on DDR, I thought it was all about Japanese techno and cutesy dance beats, what happened to that?

I own the last two DDR's on 360 and gotta say I have no intention of grabbing this one.

The games are more and more identical.

Better to have good songs to DDR

Man, I really need to get rid of this set of spare tires around my waist. Maybe it's time to invest in DDR again...

I would like to be pleased about this news, I really would. But theres one thing that has really been bugging me about DDR, and thats that Konami have NOT but a dance dance revolution game into PAL format. I know that there is dancing stage and all that, but those games have only a few good songs and the rest are just licensed crap. Even the other DDR game on the 360 was regional locked. WHY!!! BLOODY HELLS SAKE WHY!!!!

I predicted DDR X over 5 years ago! When DDR Extreme came out, I said once the 10th DDR game was released in arcades, it would be called DDR X. Well it's coming, just that the X means the 10th anniversary rather than game. But still.

I only have one question.

Will the PS2 one have only Aerosmith Songs

DDR just needs to "tap out". It jumped the shark when the "freeze" step was introduced.

dude, you cant even play the ps2 ddr on the ps3, the mats controls are all mixed up. i tried but failed. they need to make it for the ps3.

Rexco, I realize that it is cheaper, but how am I soppossed to play DDR on the ps3 if I can't connect my metal DDR mat, konami should at least make a few mats for ps3....

To all those wondering "why not the PS3"...
It'd cost less just to do a PS2 game that appeals to a much wider audience (including PS3 owners) than port a game from 360 to PS3 or vice versa. Yes, you might be ticking off a select few who want DDR in high def... but I do mean a select few. But it's good to see DDR's back and ready for more; it'll be interesting to see how they do.

DDR kicks ass, and the song selection has always been cool. but I am surprised that there isn't one coming for the PS3 (yet)

I have been stomping my tokens away at the arcade 90% of the time to this game series alone. Its rare when someone sees me on another machine and is surprised I am good in other games as well xP

PS3 needs some DDR love

But at least I can still get X or HP2 (if they're good anyway)

Where is DDR for the PS3?

I remember being in the military 10 years ago seeing this game in the japanese arcades and thinking " This is the gayest $hit ever, no way this will ever make it to the US...." Now I see I was truly wrong! Congrats Konami keep gamers sweating to the da music.

Dance Dance Revolution....10 years and counting!

I'm not sure what to think. I'm a big fan of DDR, but the most recent DDR games have been very lacking in song quality. The last time I really enjoyed a DDR songlist was DDR Extreme 2.

Hopefully DDRU3 is good. I'll get it if it gets at least 7.5.

Just throw a load of crazy Japanese songs and/or intense techno into Universe 3 and i'll be a happy buyer. Well, i'll be a buyer in any case.

Why the PS2 and not the PS3? - concerned 360 owner

360 gets 3 DDRs, nice for its casual linup!
PS3 with a fat 0 for DDR games

If Konamis cheap dance mats that come with the game didn't crap out so quick, I'd be playing more of these. But I've gone through 2 1st party pads, and I can't exactly afford a metal dance pad.
