They obviously made a mistake with that list. It's obvious because ITG isn't on it.

1.Why is parappa not number 1?
2. Where is ITG?
3. The person who made that list obviously has difficulty moving his legs up and down to the rhythm of music.

I think DDR or ITG never made it onto the list because most of the time he only likes it because of the music. Whenever I play DDR I hear the music, but I don't really think about it much.

Only trust GameFAQs for FAQs. That's why it's called GameFAQs.

At least they have one dance game in there, but then again, I hate Pump It Up. Those idiots. How do they prefer garbage like Bust a Groove over DDR and ITG?

They also don't have beatmania, although that game seems to have been a huge flop in the US due to negative reviews.

I didn't know that dedorkifying a plagiarized video game idea constituted as a good enough qualification to earn #2. But to each his/her own!

Top 10 lists are written by one person, and that person has an opinion. S/he doesn't like DDR or ITG as much as 10 other music games. What's wrong with that?

EDIT:

Well, I personally think Top 10's should at least PARTIALLY based on mass appeal.

DDR is mad popular.

Sure, I like ITG better, but no DDR up here REALLY surprises me.

Right. God forbid there's an offsite opinion that we disagree with.

Guitar Hero. Does not. Beat any rhythm game. It is horrible compared to Guitar Freaks. And all those (except maybe PIU, depending on the person who are talking to) suck horribly compared to DDR/ITG.

My top ten list.
1.) DDR
2.) Pump it up
3.) Beatmania
4.) Guitar Freaks
5.) Drummania
6.) Keyboardmania
7.) ITG
8.) Pop'n Music
9.) Flow
10.) Para Para Paradise

Most of you will disagree with the placement of ITG on /my/ list, but its better than not on there at all <.<. I hate GameFAGs

You really shouldn't form an opinion about a whole community based on one person.

Why don't we all just make our own!

My list
1. Beatmania/IIDX - Not seperating the two, they're close enough. And because it's been going for MANY years and was basically the start of real music games

2. DDR - Despite not have a good ARC release in many years, people STILL play it, STILL run large tournaments for it, and it is STILL fun, though to many not as fun as ITG or PIU. It still gives competition though despite age.

3/4. PIU/ITG - Difficult stepping games going where DDR hadn't gone. Hitting different genres of music, and higher difficulties and various styles of play made these surpass DDR in many ways. Too bad they didn't have as big of an impact as DDR (though both have hosted nation/worldwide tournaments for their fans, bless their souls).

5. Bust-A-Groove/Move - It has brought many good times for me. Something as simple as tapping in a few arrows and a key after that just makes me smile. And I still love the music. Sad thing it's rare now and I gave away my copy as a BIRTHDAY GIFT (I'm too nice

)

6. Guitar Freaks - Nothing like playing what seems simple and making it into an extrodinarily hard game. Most people, now, look at it, will call it a copy, or will think it's easier than Guitar Hero, then watch them foil in the ageless goodness. Music is good, and game play puts out in difficulty.

7. Gitaroo Man - Hitting many different genres of guitar accompanied music made this cute game rawksome. Decent length for a music adventure game and gives you multiple modes of play plus a decent, but could be better multiplayer (if both players are on even skill level).

8. Ouendan - Holy crap, my DS screen got f@$&ed up from this game. All the songs are good, hitting in the J-rock/pop zone while you get your male cheer squad to dance(?) to the various stabs, pulls and spins you make at your DS while you save someone from their fate-worse-than-death problems.

Four difficulties, but can be easily mastered.

9. PaRappa the Rapper 2 - "I gotta believe". Who expected a onion to rap? No one til this game (well the first one. came out. Even people knew these rediculous rhymes just from the commercials alone. They were catchy and simple, along with the gameplay (and rather 'epic' plotline). I personally think 2 prevails over one because of the music, it wasn't as simple, and it had more variety to the sounds. R&B likeness, Regge, Old-School Hip-Hop, even 8-Bit reminx-ish of all the songs. Win.

10. Amplitude - It's like IIDX but on mutliple parts! Doesn't stop it from being hard as hell

Making all the different instruments to (usually) pretty good songs was well creative and as it said on GameFaqs, took Frequency and kicked it up by ten.

I'm bored

I dunno, O2jam shoulda been on there, but I guess it's only console games.

Anywho, I think it was all fairly accurate. I think what they said about PIU was about right. I like their music better, too. DDR and ITG are good, but I think he was trying to keep from sounding really generic.

I think the Bust A Groove/Move series was awesome. That series got me into music games in the first place..sorry Parrappa just didn't do it for me. I still play all three games to this day. To bad that SquareEnix will most likely never make another one.

EDIT: Also I would like to add that after reading the first paragraph of the FAQ..the person was listing music games besides the all too well known DDR series. I mean...pretty much everybody knows what DDR is now. The only reason I bought DDR on a whim during it's first american release was due to the fact that I thought it would be like Bust A Groove.
