PS Blog has an article up about the game.
.....the very first paragraph says "Start exercising your fingers to get ready for some intense rhythm action game some call the "Dark Souls of rhythm games."
Nothing new, really, aside from some new "English" clips of a few songs. Wonder if they'll charge $60 or if we'll get lucky & have it be $50 or lower.

Maybe try to get people here - although not particularly active as of late we have a great and helpful bunch of posters here.
It has been a few months since the Clazziquai DLC - think we will get info on the next pack soon?

I'll try to message a mod to move this thread then.
They seem to be busy with western release. I want that portable 3 DLC now :(
Should definitely stick with this thread. We're dead enough as it is!
Well worth the wait! I've played on both Virgoo and Dao controllers and like the Virgoo in sturdiness, but the Dao in overall build and detailed design. Still no word yet on the Partner Program, but hoping something is said next week.
And it's here! Order number was 745, and the Max Edition came with the goodies as advertised on the product page. Didn't bother taking pictures of the bag and poster that were also included.
After playing a dozen of songs, it feels pretty good to play on. Reminds me of the ol' fight stick configurations, though the build quality isn't as bulky as my current stick, but not a big deal to me. Definitely not feeling the cramps with my fingers that I get with the Dualshock. Jumping from the buttons to the turntables is kind of awkward for me, but I imagine I'll get used to this eventually. My only issue is the left and right input buttons, as they don't register if you press them both simultaneously (which is an issue with the console in general). If none of the charts have this input combo, then I suppose the complaint is moot. Any ideas if this is the case? Haven't played all the songs yet, so I'm not really sure. Also loud as hell, but that's expected. The lights are a nice-touch, feels super fancy.
Pretty expensive, but all in all, totally worth.
For sure, totally digging it.

To quote from another thread:
Not sure if I'll get the GG one considering it doesn't have the songs that I know/like. Gimme stuff from Xrd like what Superbeat Xonic got, or were they perhaps not allowed since that game got those songs?
Was kind of hoping for $40, but also figured that would've been too low. Glad I can use the extra $10 I had loaded onto my account towards one of the DLC packs.

I imported the game physically and went through the trouble of getting some Singaporean PSN credit with the intention of buying DLC, but have managed to never unseal the game case. Should I be looking at starting with the NA version despite already having a physical copy I've never played?
Did they ever confirm all DLC will be released world wide on the same day? They might prioritize asia release first.
Or even those DLC that is already available might not make it day 1 for EU/US release.
Just gonna quickly quote myself from the hype check thread...
If you like rhythm games at all, please don't pass this up!

Okay, so I'm *kinda* a veteran of Pop'n Music from way back in the PS2 days. Even went so far as to buy a Pop'n Mini controller for it. However I never progressed past 5-button (7-button was removed fairly early on so I never got to try that and 9-button was just too much for me). I enjoy the Project Diva games since they're the closest thing on consoles to the old Pop'n experience, but this looks even closer to that. Would that be an accurate statement? I'd really like to finally find something that recaptures that old Pop'n magic (even if I was never really that good at it).
I think it's pretty accurate to say this is a great deal if you want something like that. It's not exactly the same as Pop'n Music, but I can't think of anything closer on current consoles. Although playing it on a DS4 is obviously going to be quite different then playing pop'n music on its controller.
I'll be fine. I played just as much with the DS2 as I did with the Pop'n controller. Also spent some time playing the PSP Pop'n games so yeah, I'm fine there. Thanks for the info!
Don't sell yourself short! pop'n is pretty intuitive and 9 button works so well. Modern entries in the series have gotten rid of 5 button entirely, so at this point there's no choice in the matter, but it's just as well since sticking with 5 button for too long makes 9 button harder to learn...
I've only played DJMax Portable. It had this weird "assist feature" where your inputs would count even if you pressed the wrong button, which kind of put me off the game, since there was no way to turn it off. Does Respect also do that?
I remember Black Square had that (plus lag!) but I don't remember the first game having it.
It's been a while for me too, so I'm tempted to get this. Usually get the Korean LEs for this series but just left this on the wayside.
Note correction was a mistake, it's nothing but trash.
Hoping more EU peeps pick this up when it releases in the US, I see so few of them on the keaderboards.

I'm sure a lot of them are just using their Japanese, Korean, or Chinese accounts, so they're stuck with the flags for those regions. Sort of wish I could change it, though, unless there's a hidden option somewhere.
Anyone have any insight in regards to getting something like a Dao FP7 or SVSE5 working on a PS4? I'm guessing it would need a USB->PS4 converter of some kind... and I'm also not sure how the analog parts of those controllers would map (if they would map to anything at all). I know that the game is designed to be played on a controller, but I think it would be amusing to play the game like that. :x
I just think you're not going to see very many people import it because it's a fairly rare practice, even for the most niche games.
You should be able to play from any PSN account as long as the account the game was purchased on set the console you installed it on as your primary console.

This is what I do, but yeah Jiraiza is probably right in that a lot of people play through the Asian account they bought it from, I never thought of that.
I need to get back on this train, haven't even installed the latest patch yet :X
There was a period of time this was a feature in every DJMAX new release. The fact that the newest games ditched it and it was patched out of Trilogy (or made an option?) gives rise to a headcanon theory that it was meant to get around some patent trolling or another and eventually some kind of agreement was reached.
Destructoid posted their review today. Thus far, it's the only review I've been able to find for the western release.

Trying out the demo and as a complete newcomer, I'm not sure I've had a more noticeable "game clicked" moment than just a minute ago. Started on 5-button (due to old Pop'n Music experience) and did Rock Or Die. Failed repeatedly within the first 20 seconds numerous times, and then suddenly it all clicked and I cleared it. No in-between. Just straight from failing in 20 seconds to clearing the song. Wow.
EDIT: Also, old Pop'n Music muscle memory taking over despite the fact that I haven't played it in nearly 10 years is certainly surprising, haha. I guess you never really lose it.

Ahhhhh, I can't seem to completely get rid of that involuntary mix-up between the middle two white notes, and the blue notes in 6B or 8B. Driving me nuts. I wish someone could debug my nerves and give me a log of why my brain thinks it should be pressing the blue note instead of the white one. I'm definitely better than when I first started with 6B, but still not fully in control of my fingers yet, it seems.
And the scratch note ruins my max combos every time.

They imported it. No codes at all have gone out for the North American/European release.
3rd party controllers aside they're not going to make charts you can't play with a DS4 :p
it might be added sometime in the next 2 to 3 hours
usually how they do it
I swear I saw a yellow banner with the name, but it took me to another game when I clicked on it and then it disappeared.

I want to try the demo before I buy though.

Really would like to see the demo first, but the game would take me over the $100 threshold to get the $15 off. Hoping that demo shows up soon.
