EZ2DJ is not dead?

Hello, I’m back.

Some insanety news has been come from Korea.

RETRO GAMES (Developer) making EZ2DJ online. (Say also, “EZ2ON”.)

But, I posted “EZ2DJ sued Konami. Konami win,EZ2DJ is end”. However, only the “arcade version” was an object in this lawsuit.

Online has been PC, It seems to be expected that it will not correspond.

Interface,system,mode is very simler “DJMAX”. (DJMAX is quited EZ2DJ staffs became a center and it made it. )

Close beta test gone “December”.

There is a possibility of sending a detailed report when I can experience.

Souce from=4gamer,Some bemani blog site,YouTube.

dj TAKA’s milestone album review by Kanna

I firstly want to remember you can there is also a BLOG COMMUNITY here where you, as user, can start your own blog here on beatmaniaiidx.com! If you’re interrested please check http://blogs.beatmaniaiidx.com/

Dj Taka 1st MilestoneThis article is from Kanna’s blog. Find the original article here.

That’s right, a complete review from me. Enjoy. I swear I will update more.

But for all of you people who don’t want to read it and my opinion for disc one:

tl;dr version: Kanna gives disc 1 over all 9/10. :D

Quickening - 7/10
I liked this track, simply because I liked the original Quickening and Taka seems to have expanded the ideas in this track very well. Though the samples were a bit… over done at times, I still found that track very enjoyable. (Though the crash cymbals and the end just kinda… uh. Yeah. xD)

Tomorrow Perfume (Vocal Version) - 7.5/10
It’s Tomorrow Perfume… I can hear it, but there’s just something different on how it was rearranged to fit AiMEE’s vocals. I loved the beginning. AiMEE vocalizing at the beginning sent shivers down my spine! It just fit very very well. Though I have to say, it was a bit drawn out - but I think it works in the sense that if it were shorter, the build up wouldn’t have worked as well. I was waiting for the vocals so it was a surprise when it seemed like Tomorrow Perfume changed into another song to accommodate the vocals! I felt like there should have been more AiMEE though.

My First Experience with a beatmania IIDX Machine

Hello, sorry for disappearing for a bit. This is Kanna, have you forgot me already? Hopefully not. All I’ve been doing recently is playing IIDX (I can nearly pass CONTRACT [n], same with the rest of the Cardinal Gate save for Nageki no Ki), doing my school work and of course, sleep and eat.

But I come back to the main page of beatmaniaiidx.com with my first experience with a beatmania IIDX GOLD machine that I had. I actually remember it better than my first sexual experience; whether that’s good or bad I’ll leave you to decide.

Groove Motion DDR



This summer in Tokyo KONAMI showed a “game” called Groove Motion DDR.

It consists of the exercise program itself, a dance pad and a motion sensor belt. A person can choose what kind of movements he wants to do for example yoga or martial arts. After the selection the person just follows the “notes” on the screen and performs the predefined moves (at the right time). The belt calculates the score and calories burned so the game keeps you post it on your calories burned and if you are the best at this kind of exercise. Could be fun don’t you think?

ATTN: Writers for Tokyopop’s RSoM Contest!

Hey. It’s Tsugaru, asking for a favor from the members of beatmaniaiidx.com! If anyone is really good at writing, I was wondering if someone would like to work on a 573/eurobeat inspired manga for the contest. If interested, details are written in my personal blog.

Enjoy~

Belated introduction!

Hello, this is AJmix. I was made a staff member of the main blog about three days ago, and the other staff members were doing it, so I might as well do an introduction.

I was a supporter of music games since a long time ago, and by a long time ago, I meant about six years ago. I started on DDR, and then I eventually got into every other part of the Bemani series. My favorite out of all of them? Pop’n Music. IIDX is awesome too, though.

I’m glad to be a part of the “573 fun”. Thank you.

Hello~ :D

Tsuga-tanHi~ I’m Tsugaru and I’m new to the main blog updating crew! I’m 16, and I love MAYA and GOLI’s artwork very much! I live in Dayton, Ohio in the USA, and I’ve been playing BEMANI games for about 5 years. My friends and I, after learning about the Cardinal Gate set of songs have an art studio in honor of the set (and influence by Fushigi Yuugi).

I’m not sure what I’ll upload in the main blog, but I’ll try really hard not to waste any space!

Thanks so much for accepting me!
