playing one handed is easy, being good one handed is hard.

i don't play IIDX much but i love it. it's a great game and i love playing DistorteD. i can only play some 7keys but it's all good. when you pay a $25 flat rate at Tokyo Game Action, it's all i need to play. one day and i'm satisfied for a week. as for the cs, i play at my friend's house whenever i get the chance, but i'm getting a flip top really really soon

Does anyone know if you can use High Speed mods in Hip-Hop Mania Complete Mix 2? I'm going to an arcade that has that there soon and I'm wondering if you can.

Hey, I was on YouTube and I saw videos that people posted - it looked as if they were running the arcade versions of Distorted and HS on their computer! Probably not legal, but pretty awesome. Anyone know what the deal with that is? (I AM NOT ASKING HOW TO DO IT OR WHERE TO GET THE FILES, IF THAT IS HOW IT WORKS.)

Yeah apparrently you can take the upgrade CD provided for installing on a machine and rip it to a computer, or maybe its a hard drive. Whatever it is it ain't that great anyways in my opinion. I haven't been able to find a USB converter decent enough to play well on my PC and time the game. Just stick to the CS styles unless you REALLY REALLY want to play DistorteD I guess.

Question. I've got an Action Replay Max for my PS2. Is there anyway to get a BM Red save onto my memory card, cuz I was able to get DDR Str!ke & Pop'n Music saves (for GF/DM V) on my memory card via GameFAQs. But when I tried BM, it didn't work. Also, are there any AC codes for Red that'll let me unlock all the pics?

Hello, does anyone know the songlist for BM IIDX12 Happy Sky and IIDX11 Red? Thanks in advance!

I've got a random question:

I was playing 8th style at the arcade and I got an A on a 7 star for my last song, but didn't get an extra stage.

Does this mean you can turn off the extra stage in the system menu?
It stinks because I don't want to waste money on free mode just to play Xenon.

Is it true that it's mandatory for current/active Bemani artists to contribute (read: make songs) for IIDX, regardless of the music game they're originally based in?

Since 6th Style, Naoki's been making IIDX-exclusives, while styles later on, both jun & Sota have been doing likewise. In Happy Sky, Yuei Uematsu (Handsome Jet Project head honcho) joined Shrine 418 for Little Little Princess. Mutsuhiko Izumi (GFdm sound producer) & Des-ROW (one of the PoMu's 4 Horsemen... er, sound producers) did the misplaced song (read; too thrashy-bashy for IIDX), Double Thrash. Even Asaki first did it in HS, as a member of Ginger.

Is there truth into this?

I've always thought that they change around lead musicians for the games. Like Naoki was the lead for DDR and Taka and TaQ was the lead for IIDX. But now it seems SOTA leads DDR and Tatsh and Naoki are doing IIDX. Taka seems to have gone to Pop'n. TaQ has dropped from bemani all together.
