Whatever happened to...

DDRGuyRazor · Posted: Thu Sep 25, 2003 9:44 am Post subject: Whatever happened to...

Max 300, Sakura, Xenon, blah, blah, blah...

They're all good songs, but whatever happened to all the older ones that (almost) everyone loved? I'm talking about the days when beating Paranoia on (what now would be called Light mode) was an accomplishment in itself? Or what about Afronova? Even Gentle Stress had more recognition back then.

Oh well, I'll always love Boom Boom Dollar.

I know! Really! (Although I really like all DDR songs, the older ones were just a hell of a lot more catchy)

...

(Although if you listen to BBD KOG and Rhythm and Police, you'll realize that KOG G3 mix is just an excuse to play "Go! Go! Go! Go!" over and over in the background.

)

Yeah, well those "Boring, tired, and cliche" songs paved the way for the "better" one in the most recent DDR's, so show a little respect.

Perhaps because those songs would be considered easy to alot of people now.

Edit: It's like how I just AA'ed Paranoia KCET clean mix (heavy, 7 greats) on my shiny new MAX2USA disc today. ::smile:: A year and a half ago I would not have even imagined passing it.

Yeah, good point. I used to think that "Drop Out" would be the hardest song ever, and it would NEVER be beaten. Konami sure likes to prove me wrong.

The problem with good DDR songs is that everybody discovers that they are good, and then everybody plays them. In turn they get overplayed. Sakura is a great song, but it got seriously overplayed in a short amount of time.

Or it could be that every single Paranoia was the same except for the base and people found out and got tired of them. (All 2,397 of them)
