I want to play Pump It Up. It's basically the korean version of DDR, but in my opinion, a vast improvement. Basically, instead of four arrows that go up, down, left right, Pump has five steps: Upper left, upper right, middle, lower left, lower right (looks like an 'X'). Of course, when I first started playing, I was used to DDR, so the diagonal orientation was confusing. But now, after getting used to it, it seems the most reasonable setup of the two.

Also, DDR's music is just horrible. At least in Pump, they use beats from real Korean artists that people might actually dance to in real life. DDR is like funky reggae and jazz beats from the early 90's.

The arrows though, are awfully confusing. In DDR, it's simple. When the arrows scroll up, you hardly have to look at them. The left side is 'left', the right side is 'right' and the middle two are up and down (i forget which is which). In Pump, the right is upper right, and the left is upper left, but then, in the center columns, are lower right and lower left respectively. It may just be my dyslexia that throws me off, but sometimes, depending on how they pair combonations, I can't ever seem to find the right footing.

I can't believe I just wrote three paragraphs on a dance game.

Mr Paul Pak, hope your situation at home is alright. Don't leave me hangin, son.
