Game Overview

DDR's newest best seller, Dance Dance Revolution Extreme 2, has EyeToy USB Camera so you can compete head-to-head with others from around the world. Featuring popular artists, smash hit songs and more unique modes, DDR Extreme 2 pumps up the volume with over 100 minutes of energetic dance music.

The Good

It still does DDR well, Some good new songs, Has an online mode, sort of.

The Bad

The online mode doesn't really work, Has a lot of cheesy, old pop songs, Too much focus on the avatars.

The Bottom Line

Konami's hit dancing series returns with DANCE DANCE REVOULTION EXTREME 2 for the PS2. Featuring new songs, new game modes, and, for the first time ever, online play. Gamers who have never played DDR before will find DDR EXTREME 2 to be a great starting point, and return players will love the new additions. In any dancing game, the song list is very important, and DDR EXTREME 2 includes covers of many great hits. Genie in a Bottle, Crazy in Love, and Get Busy are just a few titles that will keep gamers dancing for hours. DDR EXTREME 2 includes many of the standard DDR modes plus a few new ones. The main mode this time around is Dance Master Mode, which is the mode in which players will unlock other songs, modes, and dancers. Free Play Mode allows gamers to play any song they've unlocked, and unlike previous DDR games, it ends when the player decides to exit instead of after 3 songs. The game also includes lesson mode, practice mode, and the very challenging Advanced mode. DDR EXTREME 2 also features online play. Gamers can dance against others or check the rankings to see who is currently the DDR champion. Players are ranked, too, so beginners can easily avoid going up against a dance master by checking the ranking of the player they want to challenge. With over 70 songs, some great new modes, and online play, DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION EXTREME 2 is yet another great DDR game.

A good addition to the series, but it's not different enough to appeal to anyone other than the biggest of DDR fans.

The best console version released in North America. It's got everything that you love plus more challenges, a dance editor and a number of extras that DDR enthusiasts will go crazy for. Unlockables are plentiful and are not easily opened.

The addition of an online component comes as a welcome twist to the series, even if the current state of the "virtual" arcade is somewhat sparse.
