Heh, if you want a very good DDR pad, talk to Azure. Hell, I know what he'll say, so I'll tell you what I did: I got this pad, the
BNS Ultra DX and then I went to office max and bought a chair mat (you know those ones that have little teeth and they're clear) with the 36"x48" size for $16.95 and then cut it with tin snips to custom fit the pad cushion. The part you hit with your foot then hits the hard plastic that's on top of the already hard foam insert, thus making it incredibly better. For the game, you can have it free, legally, from this place called
Stepmania. You will have to download your own songs, however. That's what this site is for:
Bemanisims
Once you're there, just sort by Downloads and search for nothing. You'll get a result in a few seconds. Most of the songs that are there are very good. Also, you can grab a list of the retail songs and then search for them there and get them LEGALLY. Have fun. I'm up to 6 step songs so far, and I only started a month ago.
To stay on topic, I'm not pissed because I won't get them until I get some better computer components.
. After that, I'll probably get the iRiver 40GB whatchamacallit, that plays my .ogg files, and get the black er-6. I'm a basshead, so I needs mah bass.
