well, after a few efforts at getting back into the game, here i am again. a friend of mine (who i am going to make join this forum) has been wanting to get back into playing ddr, so we made a deal that we'd play at night throughout the week on nights that i am either off or get out early (i'm a bartender/restaurant manager so sometimes i work till 3-4am) enough for us to play. so far we've played a few nights in a row. our first night was really bad, and we tired out after a few songs. i couldn't find my ddr extreme or in the groove games so i had to use my ex-boyfriends max disc and my max 2. the second night i found my old ps1 disney mix, so we had fun with at least getting through the songs on trick/standard. today, i finally broke down and called every gamestop in northern nj until i found in the groove and ddr extreme used. after the venture to about 4 gamestops (most of them said they had extreme, then i found out it was extreme 2...bummer!) i finally got my hands on them. we played for several hours tonight on her ignition clone pads. i have a flux at home but it's too heavy for me to take out of the house, so for now the ignitions work. it's been a fun week so far, and a great way to keep my chin up. when i started playing ddr a few years ago i was pushing 160, now i'm in the low 120's. i stopped in 05 when i started playing college softball, and then replaced that with weight training and eventually ice hockey. summer is pretty boring without hockey, so ddr has come back into my life, finally. hopefully i'll remember to log into this board daily because i am anti-myspace for the time being.
