Ive always loved rhythm games, and I usually have around one obsession a year where I will play a rhythm game once a day for months a at a time. Im sure there are other rhythm heads out there and they are kind of an increasingly rare genre on newer consoles. The reason im posting this is because Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Future Tone came out this week and Ive always kind of looked at those games from afar. the new one was a massive bundle of arcade + console releases so I tried it out and Im kind of completely hooked. theres so many genres and songs and customization, its overwhelming atm. its also the first rhythm game I can remember where Ive actually been distractedby wanting to watch the backghround music videos because they are all completely original and completely insane. other rhythm games on currently consoles I can recall: PS4 - Amplitude (i played this for a bit and thought it was ok but the soundtrack wasn't super great) - ROck Band 4 (i was huge into rock band 2 on wii but I dont really have the floor space to accomodate the drums anymore otherwise I would be playing this daily) 3DS - Final Fantasy Theatrhythm (my last obsession, absolutely massive game with so many amazing songs) - Rhythm Heaven Megamix (basically every rhythm heaven song ever in one collection. super fun and challenging) Vita - has a lot of japanese only rhythm games that will never leave the country because of licensing stuff. I havent tried any myself PS4 is also getting a parappa and patapon release this year at some point. So what rhythm games have you enjoyed? Id also like to try out more recent ones that Im not aware of

The stuff they did to the new guitar hero looks kinda neat, with the live playlists that you just drop in/out of. But again I dont think I can handle another generation of plastic instruments. the one series that could get me to pick up a new peripheral would be a DJ Hero 3 release.

elf help book posted:i have 2 video game drum kits, at least 5 guitars, a rock band keyboard, a dj hero turntable, a iidx turntable, a few dance pads, over 1000 songs in rock band, both console and vita versions of all the project diva games, and i love to hit buttons when the screen tells me to Can you tell me how the hold mechanic works in this? It's the one thing the tutorial doesn't really cover. If I hold it too long does it drop the score down to that "max" value it shows? So I need to like hold longer than I think I can but not too long for max points

|
elf help book posted:no the max is a bonus for holding it that long, you can let go then because you wont gain more points Oh got it. That hold stuff is the hardest part about this, especially the two and three inputs. Balancing between dpad and face buttons for max holds is tricky

Oh also does the Future Sound and Colorful Tone rank do anything.

Before diving into this I assumed it was wall to wall jpop but they get goofy with the genres. I especially like the one pop punk song I played where Miku is mean mugging the camera and throwing sheet music to the ground because she's so pissed lol

Lmao there's one song that's a classic 90s r&b style power ballad with 4 of the loids doing pop and locks in a cathedral

The more I play of this it's funny to see where the rough spots are. Like how Miku seems to have a catalogue of about 8 dance moves that you can play at different speeds and they show up sooo commonly the more you see it. Like she does the Charlie Brown about once a song
|
# ¿ Jan 18, 2017 00:00 |

I think this is the first song I've ever seen where it would probably be easier to play the song on real instruments than try to 100% it on rock band

This is the first one I had to stop and catch my breath because I was laughing too hard at a vocaloid doing step routines on a war torn landscape in front of stock photos of nuclear mushroom clouds https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xL49yr_BZ6k

good video of the day: a miniature Miku comes to life out of a CD cover toy story style but has trouble typing on a human sized keyboard and gets cyberbullied

I played this game today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Dc3L6-e3fU&t=63s And its kinda like vib ribbon with a more colorful aesthetic. I really like the music in it but the timing windows for everything is way too tight and some of the later inputs appear too fast to even react to.

Its also kinda fascinating in that it was a wonderswan game designed to played askew so your hands had access to both dpads and the face buttons. Fun control scheme

i like the random fmv music videos that pop up from time to time in this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-qNwoz9BXw Also I got a perfect today but I got a score of 100.19% so im wondering if there's a level above perfect where you got all COOLs or something

I was planning on buying the miku season pass but the value makes no drat sense. the game was about 50 bucks for 220 songs and the dlc is 25 dollars for 12 songs. Zuh???

Theres some great stuff in these packs but its BS that there's two of the same song in here (adolescence and cendrillon are the same song!!! wtf!)

Is there a reliable way to do those triple taps on Hard and higher? I kinda wish I could use my stick with this game because it's got an 8 button layout that would be perfect but you can't do slides with it.

It also includes a Phantom Thief outfit for everyone in the cast which I assume is a Persona 5 crossover because it's all sega stuff which is pretty badass.
