I have all the other DDR and DDR-type games for PS2, and am enjoying this one so far, though I really hate the Stellar Master Mode, which you are forced to play to unlock new songs. You can get points to purchase new songs from playing the normal way, but you unlock songs to purchase by playing the Stellar Master Mode, which features all sorts of odd challenges, like strange arrows or arrows that move in odd ways. I play DDR by freshening up my instinct and so retraining my instinct to follow odd arrows is not any fun for me.

Then a lot of the songs are a bit too easy for me. I am not a great player by any means, so when I can get an A on Heavy (or Expert as they call it now) Girls Just Wanna Have Fun on my first try it is a bit disappointing. I'd like to have something to work towards!

Still, if you are a fan of the series this will give you some fun new songs to play! But if you are new to the series I'd get DDR Extreme 2 or DDR Max 2 - those are my favorites.

The following are the fresh out of the box songs that you get, and the rest you have to unlock:
