About DDRMAX Dance Dance Revolution

DDRMAX Dance Dance Revolution (PlayStation 2, 2002) is the first PS2 version of the Dance Dance Revolution series to hit North America. Featuring Oni/Challenge Mode from the arcade version of DDRMAX2 and the all new freeze arrows, this game redefined the world of DDR not only in the arcade market but in the home market as well.

Although the game shares the same name as its arcade counterpart, the songlists are quite different as they were catered to a North American market. However, most of the game remains unchanged from the arcade version.

Game Modes

Game Mode

This mode simulates arcade gameplay with memory card capabilities on. It follows the traditional route of choosing a style (single, double, versus), difficulty, and song.

Workout Mode

This mode is similar to Game Mode but tones down the gameplay for a more aerobic workout, and allows tracking of personal fitness goals in a diary.

Lesson Mode

This mode allows new players to learn the basics of DDR one step at a time (pun intended).

Edit Mode

Selecting this will bring up the step editor, allowing you to create new stepcharts for songs in the game. Edits can be transferred to a separate file on your memory card which can be transferred to your friend's memory card if you wish to share it with him, or to previous/future DDR games with common songs. (eg. Jam & Marmalade in both this game and DDRMAX2)

Options

Allows for editing game, graphic, controller, and memory options.

Records

Selecting this mode will view a table of your grades according to song, style, and difficulty level. Upon selecting a specific score, you can then see the numeric score and max combo. You may also choose to erase the record.

Information

After doing specific things in-game, the Information mode will open up more information on songs, artists, game modes, as well as tips on improving your skills at the game.
