 - Where are the songs?!!I own DDR, and I've played both DDR and PIU in arcades before. One of the big draws of PIU is that it is a Korean game vs. DDR which is Japanese. That means different songs, korean dance songs. PIU: Exceed do not have any of the korean songs from the arcade game. In fact, I will say that the selection of songs in PIU is greately inferior to the songs in DDR. In a dance-rhythm game, the song is the second most important thing next to the dance pad itself. If the song isn't good, or to your beat, you'll do poorly at it. PIU: Exceed has a collection of songs that sound generally the same, and do not have any of the club feel of the DDR songs. I am very disappointed in this game. Rating:  - Blows DDR out of waterSince Konami first released the original DDR in the late 1990's, there have been quiet a number of follow-ups, both from DDR franchise and from other developers as well. Pump It Up is one of them. Originally created in Korea, it caused a nationwide sensation and dominated the arcade over DDR. Soon PIU sensation spread to other countries, including Mexico, Brazil, Taiwan and others; Yet, ironically, PIU stayed relatively unkown in USA. Although popular among some hardcore steppers and freestylers in arcade, there is no doubt that DDR owned PIU head to head for years in US. Well forks, that's about to change forever. Finally, after a long wait, they've decided to release the PS2 and XBox version of PIU!! Pump It Up : Exceed is it's full name. It would be wise to memorize the name now. Forget DDR. Forget In the Groove. A truly fascinating dance game is in the house. Do yourself a favor and buy this if you liked playing DDR or were thinking about getting it. You won't be disappointed. In XBox version of PIU:E you would be able to download new songs through the XBox online, which covers the fact that PS2 version has a few more songs.
