	Beatmania IIDX: 6th Style Review

		There's arcade mode, which is the same as Beatmania in the arcade.
		Beatmania II DX: 6th style has a lot of replay value.

		beatmania III lasted for a 3 mixes before being canned in early 2002 (it was more or less the original series with a foot pedal a la drummania), and beatmania IIDX just had it's 12th arcade release in Summer 2005.

		The beatmania II cabinet was similar to the beatmania cabinet, save for the presence of two extra keys (one white, one fl) that form the familiar 7-key panel.
		Konami had planned to develop and release two different versions of arcade cabinets: a standard beatmania II cabinet, and a 'deluxe' cabinet with a 'DX' suffix on the end of the name, hence "IIDX".
		The IIDX cabinet features a widescreen 16:9 display, more powerful speakers, and a bass platform that vibrates beneath the player's feet to the beat of the music being played.

	Beatmania: Page 4
		Beatmania/Beatmania IIDX is part of Konami's Bemani series of music simulation games, and quite possibly is one of the most difficult of the series to learn and master.
		In most tutorials on Beatmania/Beatmania IIDX, the keys are numbered 1-5 or 1-7, in a zig-zag pattern starting with the first white key, then the first fl key.
		The majority of beginning players are frustrated when they start because while they understand the dynamics of the game, they can't play well since they don't know where the keys are in relation to their hands.

	A Session with Jason Enos, Product Manager for beatmania - PS2 News
		The original beatmania uses 5 keys and the turntable while beatmania IIDX uses all 7 keys and the turntable.
		If players are still having trouble in beatmania IIDX, there are several game options that can be turned on to make the game easier, such as playing 7 key songs in 5 key mode or automatically scratching the turntable for the player so you can concentrate on playing the keys.
		The original beatmania mode was only released on the original PlayStation® game console in Japan, so this is the first time that the original beatmania mode is making a debut on the PlayStation®2.

		Beatmania is a revolutionary new interactive DJ simulation game for the PlayStation 2, which combines high-energy pulsating music with cutting-edge videos.
		A far simpler concept, Beatmania plays at the core more like Amplitude or Guitar Hero: the player is given a progression of anywhere from five (referred to as "Beatmania Classic") or seven ("Beatmania IIDX Style") columns which are linked to buttons.
		This release has songs from the first nine iterations of Beatmania IIDX (and the theme is modified from 9th style), and from all over Beatmania Classic's seven-year history from it's beginning to The Final in 2002.

	beatmania Review - GamersHell.com
		Basically, beatmania is a rhythm game in which you need to press the keys or spin the turntable as their corresponding icons on the screen cross the action zone.
		The IIDX incorporates two more keys, and although this upgrade seems simple it can actually be a lot harder to follow if you’re just starting out.
		Sadly, there is only one difficulty in the beatmania mode, but luckily Konami included charts ranging from ‘easy’ to the godly ‘another’ for the IIDX style.

	beatmania Review - GamersMark
		beatmania offers a plethora of tunes and options, along with being packed with the unique DJ-based controller, but the problem is that not many people are going to be suddenly attracted to the series when they never even heard much about it in the first place.
		As with most rhythm games, the object of beatmania is to watch the screen as various notes scroll down from top to bottom; you must hit the corresponding key when it reaches the bar at the bottom at the right moment.
		This is not to say that beatmania is a terrible game, because it's an accurate representation of the arcade hit over in Japan, but it seems that Konami brought over the wrong representation, with a lackluster tracklist to play along to.

	Ascetic Minimalism: My take on beatmania IIDX RED's song list
		It's a decent bit of darkness, with some orchestral-ish melody (is that the trend in all the trance tracks on IIDX now?).
		I think Konami stuck with the "minimal" tag because it's mostly percussion with some mild trancey elements thrown in for good measures (this is IIDX after all).
		It's hard to do objective reviews going simply by GST tracks, since so many factors including poor recording (this one was not one of the worst recordings, but lots of clipping due to over-amplification), or poor playing (which isn't anywhere near as bad here as it was when the 8th Style GST was circulating).
