I also have been aggressively using the DDR to exercise. I originally bought PS2 with the game and mat for my grandchild for Xmas. I gave it a try and its a hoot. I am using it conjunction with a low carb diet and bi-weekly trips to the gym. In the last year I have lost 50+ pounds. I have to buy clothes three different times but am very happy with the new more svelte me. I have another 10 pounds to loose and with the help of my dance dance revolution game I will have no trouble. I am addicted to this game.....2-3 hours is not an exaggeration. My legs hurt the next day but them I am disappointed that I have to give it a rest. Its a really fun way to burn some calories.
There's a lot of different models and styles out there, some less than 100 bucks for the whole setup. I've been considering one as well. It looks like tons of fun :-)
Peace, Pen

We found one of the mats for about 20 and a disney music version was also around 20-30. It's a lot cheaper than giving your kids 5-6 bucks every week to go to the game room to play on the real one. It can be difficulot though. It has several variations starting with easy and one foot at a time and then others that are much more difficult with several double footed combinations. You will sweat when you play ddr. Diane "Penelope Baker" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I have DDR2 for the PS2, my daughter has DDR Extreme with the PS2. Both are about the same pay ability. We have found only a few songs on each of these programs that have decent beats. I wish they would come out with a program that has more American pop music. Its much easier to dance and keep up with the game if there is actually a beat to follow. The graphics are OK, I hear the graphics on the XBox version are better. But how good of graphics do you need for arrows.
