I - Introduction
Dance Dance Revolution is a game that originated in japan in 1998. Origionally
an arcade game, this game has spread to consoles and over the ocean to the USA.
However, this game is extremely different from the japanese version (as far as
song choice goes), thus I call this version MAX 2 USA. A variety of pads are
used to recreate the arcade experience, ranging in price from $10 to $300.
Some of the better options are Red Octane pads with the protection cover, or
for a stronger (but more expensive) pad, the Red Octane Ignition pads are the
top of the line for soft pads. The metal pads are even better, but yet again,
more pricy. The catch is metal ones tend to bend or bow, so it's a good idea
to renforce the pad by modifying it if you know how. Please don't ask me on
information on modding pads.

III - How To Play
You can see a video of this by waiting at the title screen. The way it works
is there is a set of arrows which scroll up the screen. When these arrows line
up with the fixed arrows at the top, step on the appropriate arrow (or press
the appropriate button on the controller) Using a dance pad is the best way to
play, but a controller is also usable. The steps will usually fall on a beat,
or in higher difficulties, follow the melody or an instrument in the background
of the song.
IV - Game Modes
From the menu, you can pick Game Mode, Lesson Mode, Training Mode, Workout
mode, and Endless Mode.
Lesson Mode - this mode include step by step "how to play" song clips to
learn how to play
Training Mode - this mode will allow you to perform a song with any settings
you like without the risk of failing. Will also show you where
you miss so you can learn the songs better
Workout Mode - Records your calories burned as you play (based on your weight)
you cannot fail, and the game will alert you when you reach
your workout goal (either number of songs, time, or calories)
Endless Mode - plays all the songs in a continuous (random) sequence for the
ultimate dance challange. Must be unlocked. Versus mode not
available
Game Mode - This takes you to the main mode. From here you choose Single,
Versus, or Double
Single - a single dancer on a single pad
Versus - two dancers on two pads
Double - a single dancer using two pads
From here you can enter the normal game mode by choosing a difficulty, or
enter nonstop mode by pressing right 3 times.
Nonstop Mode - Choose a sequence of songs to perform without a break
between songs

VIII - Other Stuff
- When playing, I strongly recommend taping down your pads. I find packing
tape to be the be the best as it holds but doesn't leave residue.
- Edit steps can be transfered to and from DDRMAX and Konamix via edit mode.
- Access extra stage by getting a AA on final stage on heavy mode. This will
allow you to play MAXX UNLIMITED (even if you haven't unlocked it).
Modifiers will be Dark, x1.5, and Reverse on heavy mode. Furthermore, you
will start with a full dance meter, but it does not increase during the song
after you've lost some.
- By getting a AA on an extra stage, you will access one more stage. This will
be KAKUMEI, x3, Dark, Reverse. Also, if you get a good or worse, or miss a
freeze arrow, you will fail automatically. It uses Challange Steps.
- Hold X or O when you choose the song to set modifiers.
- Go to www.ddrfreak.com too find an arcade machine near you
