According to Meriam Webster, a video game is 'An electronic game played by means of images on a video screen and often emphasizing fast action'. It says no where in it that only first person shooters and RPG's are video games. I'd say that DDR is electronic, has images on a screen, and does have fast action. You can tell them that. E13.gif

??? DDR is a video game, it came out for game stations so therefore it must be a video game.

video games are in arcades and i see DDR in the arcades so therefore it must be a video game

this thread is kinda pointless but infact DDR IS A VIDEO GAME

I say "No, your right. Specifically, it's an arcade game." and they're just like "Yeah, whatever."

....It is a video game. Not in the traditional sense, of course. I just tell them that.

I was informed that DDR was a specially filmed "IMAX 3D Movie" featuring the wonders of the deep off of the southern california coastline.

However, it has recently come to my attention that DDR falls short of these original promises, and that this description better explains the documentary "Into the Deep(1994)".

Steadfast and headstrong though, I stand by the original claim that DDR is in fact, the best IMAX film ever made, even if it is only for the fact that I saw it first.

That said, I still don't understand why the polarized 3d glasses refuse to work properly.

They should make DDR a Olympic sport then, I'm sure this forum has some potential gold medalist material around hehe E4.gif

Anyways, DDR is a video game. It may look like your dancing if your FS or even PA on Heavy sometimes, but overall, its still a game imo.

You are quite new, arent you? There are only four people in the world that would compete for the Olympic DDR metal, if there were such one... And I think they would win in this Order:

1) JSB - Last time I saw him was at CBN in So Cali, and he black flagged stoic first round...
2&3) DJ Ness or Gyleno (sorry for the SP if you read this Gyleno). Just becuase they are that damn good
4) Yazu, or whatever that guy's name is that was the first to AAA Max300.

Oh, and ATeam pwnz you all for Freestyle... Damn Koreans >.O;;;

It's hard enough to get people to believe that DDR is a sport, but trying to convince people it's worthy of being Olympic material is just ridiculous. It's a video game; Olympic officials aren't going to give people medals for spending all their time smashing plastic arrows.

since were saying ddr is an arcade game, it being in the olympics would encourage people to say that tekken is a sport and it should be in the olympics

I really hope this thread does *NOT* become a "SHOULD DIDDER BEIN OLYPECS" Thread....

Honestly, if someone says its not a video game, you should slap them or mame them.

I don't understand why you would get mad. If I'm drinking orange juice and someone says, "Hey that's not orange juice!" I'm gonna say, "Crap...it tastes citrusy and everything. Shit."
