That game WOULD be made by a developer named "Japan Studios"

Lawl it looks fun. Probly never come out in the US but it looks like it would be fun to play for a few days. Seems like hearing "PATA PATA PATA PON" over and over would get a bit annoying after a few hours though...

Blah. PA ripped the game pretty hard.

This is what happens when you have someone that became used to playing Guitar Hero suddenly forced into a game where tight timing matters.

I wouldn't say this game is a perfect 10, but definitely a solid 8.

Yeah I lol'd pretty hard at this. What version of beatmania are they playing? The only time you can add notes is after the very last note in the song, and that leaves you like, one or two seconds of key mashing fun.

They may have been playing 5 key and talking about the free scratch zones.
