As the news hit's I'll be updating this with the latest word from Konami. I'll also be shooting to try and get a preview done on the title for the site so that you guys can get a firsthand look at the working of it. ^^
Here's the initial info from KOA hq. ----------------------------------- DDRMAX2 Dance Dance Revolution™ Release date: Fall 2003 Genre: Music Platform: Sony PlayStation® 2 Get your dancing shoes on and pump up the volume! Konami’s dancing revolution rolls on with the release of DDRMAX2™ for Sony PlayStation® 2. Now offering players a whole new library of unforgettable licensed and exclusive songs for the U.S., DDRMAX2 includes all-new high-energy play modes and an enhanced interface. Players will still have to stay on their toes as all of the standard game modes and the ever-challenging Workout Mode return! ------------------------------------ Yeah that's right Fall 2003 for the US version and the Japanese version is set for this spring. >_< Either way it's almost too little too late for both versions as MAX2 will be almost a year old at that point and EX2 will be just on the horizon. Who knows what features konami has up their sleeve though.  -------------------  | |

As I see it....Konami's Bemaniseries is so far on track since bringing DDR here. Max2 is being released exactly one year from Max1s first arrival.

So much for getting a first look in sometime. Konami PR refered me to ddrfreak if I want anymore ddr info or screenshots. ¬_¬ wow that's some effort at spreading the word about the title and anything that it may offer.
April 23rd is the popular date right now. Hopefully KOJ will stay on course with that date so we can get a preview of it's offerings. ------------------- | |

I hope they stick to the tracks, but as far as USA release I'm already seeing them blotch up the songlist as they did for MaxUSA, not saying the list was bad or anything I just hoped for an entire port of Max.

Mmmm...so what exactly does the original article mean by 'new game modes'?
We already have 'Oni'.....will we see an 'Endless' Mode? The return of the 'Nonstop' mode? Something else that can provide even *more* replay value???? *Wintermute is getting quite excited!!* I personally can't wait for all the new Oni's. (Even though some of the first ones still give me trouble, LOL...) ------------------- Winter has returned to Neo. 8/2007. | |

Yup, yup. I probably should've helped keep the thread updated in VegitaX's absence...but I slacked. *Sigh*
This will be the first in a trio of US DDR releases. DDRMAX2 will have upwards of 75 songs (eclipsing DDRMAX), and sadly, will *not* feature an ONI mode. DDRMAX2 will include the old standby modes (Arcade, Workout, Edit, etc.) and also showcase the return of Nonstop Mode (each Nonstop with 2 difficulties, and varying from 4-8 songs), and Endless Mode (each song, all the way through the game). A demo disk has already been released that features: ...I feel D2R Still in my heart Tsugaru Ultramix for X-box releases in November, with the promise of downloadable song packs, and Live 4-player action. All of this is precursor to what has been revealed to be the next big DDR for PS2.....DDR Extreme. Features are still scarce, but Konami is showcasing the game will have 100 + songs crammed onto the disk. Everybody ready? ;-) ------------------- Winter has returned to Neo. 8/2007. | |
