Okay, I'll start.

In the arcades where I live, it's one of those "filler" games, a la Pump It Up or Beachhead 2000. I.e. quite a few players, and some who are incredibly good, but not all that hot.


You think PIU is a filler? You, sir, are a major douche. DrumMania, PIU... they arn't fillers, those are the games rhythm gamers crave. I know plenty of people that go to arcades just for PIU and DrumMania. Dedicated fanbase and plenty to freestylers out there. It's big, and only getting bigger. DrumMania is bringing out V4, and anything that has that many mixes (12+) can only mean something more. Anything with a fanbase are not fillers. Sorry... but you are right about Beachhead 2000.

-that's flaming
-he posted that over 4 years ago
-"where I live" means that where he lives that's how it's treated. The rest of his post was pretty positive about the game.

Whoops, sorry about that. I didn't read the rules when I should have, but when he said fillers a la. "A la" meaning examples. Used examples like PIU just makes me a little mad, when was explaining what fillers were... A LA PIU?

Excuse my noobiness. Just wanted to defend PIU, even though it was years ago E19.gif

New mod on V4. Dark HALF. It'll only make the background where you play dark, & not the color thing at the top/bottom & the "that's when you hit the note!" line. Here's the examples:

Interesting mods. Half seems just right for me, but I still want to see the gauge bar in Dark mode. E2.gif

Well, I think this song is THE easiest GF song of all time. Why? It's a 28 ON EXTREME, OPEN PICK! 27 on Normal!!

BTW, site was updated w/ the Grand Prix stuff.

Why do people keep on getting the impression Kozo did Guilty Gear's BGM's even though he clearly never did?

Am I the only person in the world who thinks that a brand-new AC GFdm mix is incomplete without a brand-new Mutsuhiko Izumi song, the same way DDR without NAOKI and IIDX without dj. TAKA?

Nope. Seriously, Izumi has contributed to EVERY GF/DM. We just don't know it cuz the singer gets the credit. Really. Like you said, this is GF/DM's main artist, like Naoki is to DDR & DJ Taka is to IIDX. Heck, he even did "double thrash" on Happy Sky (along w/ Des-ROW), made his solo debut in Gold (Half Moon. I've been hearing alot of "when are we getting Model HM2?!" jokes for IIDX 15), & even did a song for Keyboardmania 3rd Mix!! (That was Mr. Moon, which is also on GF/DM 5th/4th)

I'm betting sometime next week we'll get the last song online.

Is it just me or is anyone else having this same vibe: Should Konami decide to bring GitaDora to the US, they'd use V4's interface? I can't be alone thinking that V4's got that Guitar Hero-ish look to it, making it easier to introduce the series stateside.

I'd expect a name change, cuz I can see people going "V4?! WTF?!". But yeah, w/ all the US music in it, it seems more likely...

Wow, there's preview a new L.E.D vs. Guhroovy song that was put on the site the 25th. It sound meh-ish, but it's just a preview. I'm surprised that we haven't gotten a new long song yet...

Well, there's V, V2, V3 coming out in October, Masterpiece Silver, & Masterpiece Gold. I'm not gonna go into the old 4th/3rd mix & 3rd/2nd. I only have the Masterpieces, but I'm hoping to get V3 for Xmas & maybe get V somehow.

I started w/ Silver I'd suggest that), but the unlocking part is sorta hell. See, after arcade (2 stages minimum, or you don't get it), you get little shapes to help uncover a 4x4 pic that'll unlock a song, interface (each mix had a different theme/interface), or background. Problem was in Silver, the shapes could go over the panels that you already flipped over, so it's annoying when you have one panel left. THANKFULLY, they fixed that in Gold & made it so the shapes don't go over the already flipped panel, making the unlocking process MUCH easier & shorter.

Silver's songlist

Gold's songlist

Yeah, Silver's unlock system sounds confusing when ya hear it, but it makes TONS more sense when you actually see it. The guides also have more info on stuff, like unlocks & all that. It also explains the unlock system better.

Now, back to what I came here for. So I'm checkin' V4's site, & on the side, it says that one of the top 5 songs is murmur twins (guitar pop ver.) (which was on Pop'n Music 10, original from IIDX 8th Style. So this SORTA has now been on IIDX, GF/DM, DDR, & Pop'n Music, all 4 of Bemani's games (ONGOING)) & 太陽~T・A・I・Y・O~(ANOTHER SENSE EDITION) (original being on IIDX RED).....But I can't find them ANYWHERE on the songlist....So I'm thinkin' "Oh, it's an E-Amusement song", so I'm checking that, & nothing....

So now I'm thinkin' "Maybe it's a Battle-only song", so I check there....& still nothing. So I check GDA Mania & their songlist says they're secret songs.....That's great, but HOW do I get them....Maybe later, it'll be on the official site.

& still no new song info from Mutsuhiko Izumi....
