Dance Dance Revolution Extreme 2

Quite arguably one of the best Dance Dance titles to be released on the PS2.

The hardcore may gravitate toward more advanced games like "In the Groove," but this is an excellent dance title for the rest of us. [Nov 2005, p.94]

I am not going to say they have done anything revolutionary with this title, but Konami still has the formula right for dance games, others have tried but I still think the DDR series is the best out there.

Dance Dance Revolution Extreme 2 doesn’t do anything new or “revolutionary”. It’s still a solid game that diehards of the series will eat up, but for those looking for some added spice will be left wanting until Konami ships out the next one.

DDR Extreme 2 makes some great strides to attract new players to the same old franchise.

If your old DDR game needs a song update along with some new features, give it a shot.

Save for a handful of relatively current songs, most of which are unlockable, the music is purely recycled from earlier games. Some of the new gameplay modes are interesting, like playing online, but a "workout mode" hardly seems innovative.
