Meh, 5th is a'ight, but no way in hell is it better than Extreme.
The place I play has a 5th, 6th, and Extreme and the only one I don't play is the 5th.
Yeah, there are some good old songs on it, but there are so many more on Extreme. The songs on 5th are, for the most part, played out. Forget Hot Limit, Furhata's Theme, BB$, Wonda, all the E-Rotic songs etc. They had their day, and now it has passed.
I hate 1x speed (I can do it, but I don't like it). I hate the characters too. I hope they get rid of it at my arcade.
Maybe I like So Deep too much ( I'd defently take a machine that just had that song on it over a regular 5th), but 5th is a relic that needs to be forgotten IMO.
Btw, 4th Plus pwnz 5th. My Fire is the shiz.
My 2 cents. _________________

Wow i didn't know how lucky i was to have the 5th mix near me.And probaably i would rather play that then the Extreeme thats just as close 4 times out of 5. I have to agree that the songs to me on 5th are just more fun to play. When I watch people play Extreeme it gets boring. I try to play more of the fun songs one of my favortie being Saint goes marching. Most people here who are defending EX seem to keep going back to the point of how it has tons more songs. But who cares if you don't play even a third of them. _________________

I hope this is relevant to the topic, BUT I did have a strong love for 5th mix, HERO was one of my FAVORITE songs on the track, I could play it four or more times and not get bored with it, and recently it was taken out and replaced for pump it up..*grumbles* |

Gonna say 5th mix had the best freestylable songs on it's songlist. And most importantly LONG VERSIONS KICKS BOOTAY! Hot Limit anyone? Plus 5th Mix had evil frickin Moonlight Shadow heavy doubles. That was sick.
Oh and 4+ Solo: 2 minutes away; Extreme: 10 minutes away; 5th Mix 30 minutes away; Max 2: 1 hour. I am content with what I have. _________________

sounds like the arcade i go to only we're missing the 4th+ .. i'd LOVE to have that machine there...
as for extreme over 5th mix.. i agree with endangered species.. i don't like the interface very much.. but 5th has wicked fun songs! extreme is like chock full of .. 'hard songs' while 5th still stays true to the freestylers.
but uuumm. max 2 for life! _________________

Our 5th mix is under constant threat of being upgraded Which irritates me because 5th is an excellent mix that has many great songs not found on Extreme.
Although in the end, I think if Konami had just put some actual thought into the old songs they brought up into Extreme, I wouldn't care about the 5th.
And God of Romance? wha? Now that's not a song I would have thought to be anyone's favorite. That's interesting. |

First of all, let me say that my local arcade's combination of 5th and Extreme is great. Of course, I've seen Extremes at 50c for 3 songs and 5ths for 75c for 4 songs, but we still have both (it's just more expensive).
Extreme could have shamed every other mix easily if Konami had revived the following:
-Characters
-Long Versions
-The other announcer (Give it your best shot!")
-The whole friggin' 5th mix songlist.
But especially those long versions. With those gone, Hot Limit may stand a chance at being shortened, but B4U Glorious Style will never appear in another mix again. If you don't give a crap about that, go to the nearest 5th mix and play B4U Glorious Style Maniac. Not only is it one of the best songs ever, but the steps are fun to do and you can draw Hugh-Jass crowds. Anyway, all the long versions were good except the techno remix of Oops I Did It Again.
Then there's the announcer. His voice is kind of scratchy, he has this obnoxious accent that I can't identify, and the things he says are the worst. Ever. I mean, the last guy was awesome (if not, inadvertently hilarious)
And just look at how many great songs went by the wayside after 5th Mix:
-Dancing All Alone
-Dancing Pompokolin
-Seventeen
-All the E-ROTIC stuff
-God of Romance
-Movin' On (Ok, I don't like it but a lot of people do)
-Neverending Story
-Hot Limit
-Pink Dinosaur
-Furuhata's Theme
-Those 2Unlimited songs
-Cafe
-Petit Love
-Do Me!
-Lupin the 3rd
-Theme from Enter the Dragon
-Sky High
-B4U Glorious Style
I could name more, but you get the picture.
While a lot of those songs may be liscensed, so were Butterfly and Dam Dariram and a bunch of other recurring songs.
So basically, if they were to put all this into the next mix with their usual upgrades and all the new stuff as well, it would be so great this discussion would be over. _________________

Last summer in Ocean City, NJ we had a Max and a 3rd Mix Korean 2, both which are very uncommon now.
This year, the Max got upgraded to Max 2, the 3rd Mix Korean 2 got upgraded to an Extreme and the 1st arcade also added a 2nd Max 2. But then they downgraded the 2nd Max 2 to a 5th Mix. After playing a 5th Mix machine for the first time, I didn't play Max 2 once the rest of the night. I would take 5th Mix over Max 2 and Extreme any day. |

I don't miss the 5th very much cause of it's lack of songs, no speed mods, etc. I play alot of EX cause of the songs and I 0wN at Doubles. _________________

5th Mix is awesome. 4th+ is awesome. MAX 2 sucks. Extreme is awesome. Just keep in mind: MAX 2 sucks! |

5th mix > Extreme
Any #mix other than 1st > Extreme (for the most part)
I think once max came out everything went downhill for freestyling and good songs. And tech went up.
Quote: | Nobody who seriously gives Extreme a chance doesn't like Extreme. Once you have been hacking away at the song list for a long time you realize how much good music is contained within Extreme. |
I've been playing extreme for about 4 months now, and I hate it. I really really do hate it. Dont get me wrong, I wanted them to upgrade it from max2 to ex very badly, and I loved it for the first couple months. But now when I go to select a song, I just sit there for ever and then usually tell a friend to pick a song cuz i don't really give a damn anymore. Sure it has challenging songs, but once you can beat those songs it gets old fast. Unless you are one of those obsessive types that wont stop until they AAA bag 1x and paranoia survivor max oni.
I meen really, and what does it matter about graphics, it's really all about the dancing. If the songs arent fun to dance to, why even play? Poor 5th mix. If I was rich I would buy each mix and keep them in the best condition possible and then invite everyone over who enjoyed quality mixes to play. |
