    'Ello.

    I'm new to all things DDR or FFR. This is an amazingly fun game. The first time I saw DDR, I was in Japan, watching Japanese youth angrily stomp on a pad for fun, completely baffled as to why someone would want to pretend to dance instead of actually dancing. I just thought it was some strange Japanese thing (like their scooters, which instantly also became popular over here), until I started seeing it everywhere here in the US.

    I came here because a friend of mine wrote some of the music featured here, and found this amazing game. Yet...I imagine I'm the only 24 year old in here. So how old is everyone else in here?

    I gotta ask, too, though...is this game actually easy for anyone here? It took me about 15 minutes to get even 33% better than everyone on just one song ("Terror From Beyond" if I am not mistaken)! And I can only get at maximum 128 combos in a row. Is this pathetic, or normal?

    New to the revolution,

    Please refrain from mocking the age.
    Or the proper grammar and spelling.

      Welcome to FFR.

      I'm 17 yrs old.
      the youngest we have so far is 12.
      Some songs are easy, some aren't.
      Just practice and you'll be fine.
      PIU(pump it up) was the first dancing I ever played followed by DDR a year later.
      While you're at it. try Getting Stepmania or DWI so you can play DDR on PC. It's very fun.

        -words of advice:: run now as fast as you can before all the "skilled" players make you feel really stupid for being a newb.
        -I'm 20.
        -those percentages aren't real, they just divide your score by the highest score, so it's not really a comparison (I'm not complaining! =P)
        -I've been playing this since april and it's still not totally easy. But it definitely gets easier. The first fifteen minutes I played, I don't even think I could get a 30 combo. lol, but I just suck like that, so congrats to you.
        ~again, i shall ask you this once again. he said, \"i am but one small instrument.\" do you remember that?~
