Why do YOU play DDR? It is fun. What else can I say. I really shouldn't work out since I am about 5' 10" and I weigh like 110 pounds. I play it for fun and it is practically a hobby.

-having fun
-listening to music
-something to do on those rainy days

Same damn question. Same damn answer. Look back a few and you'll see my point.

I actually had a girl hit on me after playing DDR. Albeit, she didn't seem to be the brightest burned-out bulb, and I'm pretty sure she was making up that crap about getting a record contract soon. Plus, I was also wearing a nice suit after having interviewed for some programming jobs, and I'm married.

You single guys that play in regular clothes are screwed.

I play DDR because that's what my friend bought. If he had bought Driver and a wheel controller, I would play driving games.

Besides, it gets the chicks.

DDR is the only video game I've seen that prompts people to ask this question over and over again. I never see people on Tekken 5 or Marvel Vs. Capcom boards asking why people play those games. Hmm...

For fun; Plus--- It made me a local celebrity. You see my picture on the wall behind the machine. I am this month's player of the month in my arcade. (Meaning I play it most often and was voted best.) So anyone that comes in, noobie or pro, recognizes me as a great player.

ddr only gets like annoying 13-14 year old chicks which is nothing to be bragging about. I once had a 20 year old girl who works at the place which i play grab my butt while playing even though she claims she kicked me............. But to stay on topic i play for fun, the music, meeting cool people at the arcade, PA, and for some of the challenge that it has.

thats because the novely for fighting games isn't as interesting as DDR since in DDR your actually moving physically and it requires balance coordination, reflexes, speed, stamina, and eye coordination. DDR just has more publicity and is much more interesting to watch rather then someone just standing and pressing buttons and toggling a joystick. Maybe konami should make FFR (fight fight revolution). laugh.gif wait a sec i think the thread is now off topic. blink.gif

Not to mention they have already done that. Okay it's not called FFR but it's the same thing.
