Thank you to whomever made the post about Dance Dance Revolution!!!

[jazyjewel]

I just wanted to thank you for turning me on to that. I would grudgingly get up to do my WATP, but I got up this morning, put in DDR and danced for almost an hour!!!! Now, it wasn't real fast dancing, but enough to get my heart pumped up. I am the least coordinated person in the worl, but when I can get through castles in the sky with only 9 boos, I think that is doing great!!!! Anyway, thanks again, I really love this!

Okay... Can you tell me about this DDR?? What do I need to purchase?? I know it hooks into a Play Station.. which I do not have... is it worth it to purchase this just for DDR?? ?

Thanks!

I'm thinking about getting the game also. We have Xbox and I just found out they released a version for it!! I guess I'm going to have to go shopping. I will have to go check the little video store we buy from and see if they have it. I don't remember seeing it around Christmas when we were buying games, but then again that wasn't a game we were looking for. All the reviews say it is really fun.

disney ddr is very fun - great disney toons (you can try it at innovations in Epcot ) also the jungle book ddr is fun. My dd likes the britney's dance beat, but I rather dance with the mouse !

There are versions (some under different names) for almost every game console and also for PCs. You need the game, something to play it on and a dance pad, which is a big game controller/mat that sits on the floor. We have PS2 - DDR Max and also Disney DDR and we all love it! That and The Wiggles is where I get most of my excercise, outside of chasing my girls around. On a side note - for Christmas I got Karaoke Revolution - it has a headset and you sing songs. You are scored on your pitch and timing, and it is also a blast. We dance like pop star idiots and make it twice as fun!

DDR is absolutely wonderful. Some of the songs on the ultra mix I could do without, but it is fun, and they even have a workout mode on it. I danced for 30 minutes on workout mode and it burned over 200 calories. But, I didn't stop there, I went to training mode and tried to pick up the pace a little. I did about another 30 minutes then. I have it on the xbox. If you are buying a game console to use it with, you can always get a used PS1 and it will save you money. As for the Disney DDR, I can't find one anywhere except Ebay, and I can't see spending $60+ for it. If anyone knows where I can get one for xbox or PS1 cheaper, please let me know!!! Thanks!
