PIU - Pump it Up. It is a five-panel dance game released by the Korean company, Andamiro.

They're releasing a PIU-compatible pad, as Pump it Up Exceed is due out nex t month.

More precisely, the V2 pad itself has always physically been PIU compatible. The next revision of the control box, however, will make the pad compatible with the PS2 release as it was previously compatible only with the PC release.

I love my xbox a little bit more than my ps2, so I was thinking:

Last week, I saw that the new release of PIU will be on both xbox and ps2.

http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/puzzle/pumpitupexceed/index.html?q=pump+it+up

Having said that, will the new cboxes support xbox AND PIU on the xbox? It would be nice to have a dance mat that natively supports all of these things...

It is official from the Cobalt Flux team themselves. They did not release a date, but I assume that it has to be within the next two months. He did say they were in production. God, it's all in posts previous to yours. Read. Please.

So after a long investigation, I finally decided to buy the Cobalt Flux.

I really hope that this turns out to be a good thing. I'm confident it will, it's just when dropping that much dough it's really hard not to worry. oh well, I shall explain how it goes when I get it. I ordered it Sat. Night... and it's still waiting to be shipped off, so I'm not really sure when I'll get it... but I do live in Missouri, so it's not super close to Utah, but it's also not on the East Coast.

i have read some problems far back in this post. Some people have problems with the CF pad.... HOW?! My friend has two CF pads, he plays/has played almost every day for two years, with shoes. The pads work absolutely fine.

He even has kind of a dirty room so he puts garbage or clothes on the pads. Bottom line is that I LOVE this pad. But my only question is what is the best way to clean it?

There's instructions when you get the pad, it's included.

w00t!! My pad just came in the mail today at 9:00 A.M. It's sweet, I love it so much. The only thing I am wondering is if I should loosen the screws. but I have to go to work soon so I will have to experiment later. I have the black arcade mod on it, and it is amazing. I ordered it last Sat. and the Flux team shipped it out Wed. night. It made it here in three days! Man, I am so excited now. I may have to call in sick or something. lol.

Well I got my CF today, just 1 hr ago about. I opened it up, pluged it in to my EMSUSB2 adapter, plugged it in to my computer and it worked right out of the box. I didn't even have to set the arrows in Stepmania. It was already in there from my softpad. I played an assortment of songs, and I instantly noticed a significant improvement. It turns out I was good at DDR all along, my pad just sucked. I was getting A's and AA's on things the first try that would have taken me 4-5 trys with my softpad.

All in all, this thing worked flawlessly out of the box. I love it. I just hope it doesn't crap out on my down the line. I will take good care of it. And as a bonus, my CF slides right under my bed, and out of the way.

The cbox can also be tested independently by shorting the pins with a wire. But Spike hangs out over at the Flux forums, so I'm sure he has seen mention of that already.
