from Live For You!. Reception Live For You! sold 44,000 copies in its first week of release in Japan, and ranked as the fifth best-selling video game in Japan that week. The game received a score of 28 out of 40 from the Japanese video game magazine Famitsu. The game has been described as akin to a fan disc that would be hard to play if the player did not already have an emotional attachment to the idols. For this reason, Takeshi Iizuka writing for ASCII Media Works strongly recommends playing the Xbox 360 port of The Idolmaster and producing two or three idols before playing Live For You!. Iizuka notes the large differences between the easy, medium and hard modes when playing the support mode, in addition to the varied difficulty between songs. "Go My Way!!" and in particular are called the most difficult songs to play on hard. During the support mode, the rhythm minigame is described as difficult to focus on if the player also wants to focus on aspects of the idols' performance. The rotating screen during the special appeals to the audience is also called distracting. The game's photography mode was criticized for only allowing the last five photos to be viewable at the end of the performance and for only one video being allowed to be saved at a time. The communication portion of the game is also criticized as being somewhat insufficient.
