How To PlayHow Not To PlayED's own RedMachineD playing DDR. Complex Stepcharts & Extremist EditsDDR and unplayable stepcharts go hand-in-hand. One of the key aspects of Dance Dance Revolution is the stepchart, charts of 'notes' that one steps to during gameplay. Dance Dance Revolution is widely known to have insane stepcharts, especially for many of their most challenging songs. Some players even create edits of stepcharts, making even relatively easy songs impossible to realistically play. On rare occasions they may supercede Konami's original creations, but most of these edits are just completely stupid.

BeatmaniaNo words can describe the sheer complexity of this game. StepmaniaAn open-source Dance Dance Revolution clone that you can play while sitting in your mom's basement. It is played using the arrow keys on your keyboard, and unlike DDR, offers little health benefit other than the development of extremely nimble fingers.
In The Groove15 STEP DIFFICULTY In The Groove was a clone game developed by Roxor Games, employing the exact same physics of DDR. Although similar, it was far superior to its Konami counterpart because it posessed a songlist that didn't consist entirely of Japanese techno, the dance pads had better sensors and actually worked like they were supposed to, and you were able to create custom songs with stepcharts; note that custom songs could only be up to two minutes in length however. Eventually, Konami sued Roxor for stealing their original idea, and they went out of business. See AlsoExternal Links
