Rhythm Game of Choice

[Zero-Bee]

If you have been on any robotics team for some amount of time, you find quickly that teams are made partly of...

Well, completely made of nerds.

And where there are nerds, there are video games! ITT, we choose which rhythm based music video games are our personal favorites! Dance Dance Revolution, Beatmania, Guitar Hero, and anything else I missed.

I really love Guitar Hero. It's more than I am a huge fan of rock-n-roll, and I am uncoordinated with my feet in every way, but the fact that games excellently executed auditory reward system really encourages the player to practice the advanced techniques for the harder songs.

Frequency, for the PS2, It is just amazing.

The good thing about DDR: If you're bad with your feet...

There's always a controller.

That's the only one I've played, so I don't know about which is best.

GUITAR HERO!!!!!!!

I love Guitar Hero!

Amplitude is pretty awesome as well, though.

I can't wait for Guitar Hero 2 to come out. The setlist makes me drool.

... or your feet are a bit larger than the ones DDR was designed around. However, I tried and enjoyed* one of the keyboard versions, Stepmainia, at my cousin's house

*Enjoyed != good at. Especially trying to do U Can't Touch This.

Amplitude does rock, and we can't forget about Flashflash revolution!
(even if it is just a clone...)

I've been playing the demo alot. But it only makes it want it more!

Guitar Hero is awsome. I can't wait for the GH2

Donkey Konga was a pretty good one. My only complaint is the choice of music...

[Donut]

DDR by far, though I quite enjoy Stepmania and DDR's American cousin, In The Groove.

Other than a small song list Donkey Konga was a good game.

I like to fake shred every now and then, so of course I'm going with Guitar Hero.
Guitar Hero 2 looks to be even better. Among some of the killer licks on the sequel will be "War Pigs" by Black Sabbath, "Sweet Child O' Mine" by G&R, "Free Bird" by Lynyrd Skynyrd, and of course "Thunderhorse" by DETHKLOK!

Can't forget "Carry on Wayward Son" by Kansas.

That song has always been a perfect Guitar Hero song.

I enjoy DDR more than Guitar Hero, but both are tons of fun. Guitar Hero isn't as fun of a party game... there's more laughing with DDR

PS: You can never have too big of feet for DDR... I hammer out the difficult songs with my size 15 feet.

Elite Beat Agents. It's the most addictive game for the DS ever.
