Blows DDR out of water

Since Konami first released the original DDR in the late 1990's, there have been quiet a number of follow-ups, both from DDR franchise and from other developers as well.
Pump It Up is one of them. Originally created in Korea, it caused a nationwide sensation and dominated the arcade over DDR.
Soon PIU sensation spread to other countries, including Mexico, Brazil, Taiwan and others;
Yet, ironically, PIU stayed relatively unkown in USA. Although popular among some hardcore steppers and freestylers in arcade, there is no doubt that DDR owned PIU head to head for years in US.
Well forks, that's about to change forever. Finally, after a long wait, they've decided to release the PS2 and XBox version of PIU!!
Pump It Up : Exceed is it's full name. It would be wise to memorize the name now. Forget DDR. Forget In the Groove. A truly fascinating dance game is in the house.
Do yourself a favor and buy this if you liked playing DDR or were thinking about getting it. You won't be disappointed.
In XBox version of PIU:E you would be able to download new songs through the XBox online, which covers the fact that PS2 version has a few more songs.

I own DDR, and I've played both DDR and PIU in arcades before. One of the big draws of PIU is that it is a Korean game vs. DDR which is Japanese. That means different songs, korean dance songs. PIU: Exceed do not have any of the korean songs from the arcade game. In fact, I will say that the selection of songs in PIU is greately inferior to the songs in DDR. In a dance-rhythm game, the song is the second most important thing next to the dance pad itself. If the song isn't good, or to your beat, you'll do poorly at it. PIU: Exceed has a collection of songs that sound generally the same, and do not have any of the club feel of the DDR songs. I am very disappointed in this game.

We have young people in the house ranging in age from 18months to 20ys and absolutely EVERYONE has fun with this game! The best part of it is that I get a bit of guilt relief watching them do something active rather than sitting on the couch pushing buttons. It's great to see my 10yr old step child play with my 18yr old son when she visits with Daddy on the weekend. This game and the Nintindo WII are the only things that seem to give them common ground enough to interact. My 18 month old gets so excited watching everyone dancing that it's never long before she is running round the room in hysterics. It's a BLAST and we would highly recommend it.

My 17-year-old loves it!

I bought this as a 17th birthday gift for my daughter. She finds Pump It Up to be superior to Dance Dance Revolution.
Much to our amazement, the dance pad controller works with DDR as well (on the X-Box). Though lacking a DDR dance pad, she had been given some DDR games and played them with the hand-held controllers up until now.
While the PIU is a far superior product, the popularity of DDR means there are more titles available, so my daughter gets the best of both worlds using the PIU dance pad for the intended software as well as the competitor!
