To anyone with the Ignition or Metal Pad...

I just wanna know how good they are. How close is gameplay on either one of these mats compared to the machine ones?

Ignitions are a big improvement over normal soft pads. They don't move nearly as much and are more sensitive. The only downside is that they're still soft pads, just with a piece of styrofoam in the middle. They still move (not as much, but still) and they still can break just as easily. The only "metal" one I've tried is Cobalt Flux because I got sick of replacing soft pads and ignition soft pads. The Cobalt Flux platforms are very costly but definitely worth the price if you're seriously into DDR.

I use a RedOctane IgnitionPad 2.0 at home and I also play in the arcade. The transition between the two is smooth, the only exception to that rule being the difference between dancing in socks (home) and shoes (arcade).
