Dance pad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A dance pad, also known as a dance mat or dance platform, is a flat electronic game controller used for input in dance games. Most dance pads are divided into a 3×3 matrix of square panels for the player to stand on, with some or all of the panels corresponding to directions or actions within the game. It is also possible to modify a pad by attaching it to a hard surface and optionally covering it with clear material; this can increase pad life and keep it from slipping around. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Dance_pad   (1012 words)

Dance Dance Revolution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Dance Dance Revolution, or DDR (known as Dancing Stage in Europe), is a music video game series produced by Konami. The arrows are synchronized to the general rhythm or beat of a chosen song, and success is dependent on the player's ability to time and position his or her steps accordingly. Dance Dance Revolution was featured in the movie Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen starring Lindsay Lohan who was challenged to a dance off by her nemesis. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Dance_Dance_Revolution   (4640 words)

DriverHeaven.net: RedOctane Afterburner Metal Dance Pad While there are “soft” dance mats mad out of cheap foam materials, dancers who wish to play the more difficult songs without an endless bombardment of problems should invest in a metal dance pad. This pad is a one piece metal frame that weighs about 40 pounds, so it’s reasonably easy to transfer it from one room to another or put it away once you’re done for the day. Durability is a major issue amongst dance pads simply because no gamer wants to spend hundreds of dollars only to have their pad break after a couple of weeks. www.driverheaven.net /reviews/afterburner   (1185 words)

Compare Prices and Read Reviews on Red Octane Ignition Dance Pad at Epinions.com Soft pads come in several styles, from the $15-$20 low-end pads from Konami and Naki, mid-pack offerings for Red Octane and others in the $50 range, and the upper end Ignition model coming in at right around $100. Speaking of sliding while playing, all the soft pads have this problem due to their light weight and the jumping required to dance effectively. The Ignition pad stays in position on most carpets better than any other soft pad I’ve used, and only requires adjustment every other game (each game is three songs long) I’ve used a cheap Konami pad a little bit, and I own the $19 Naki Intense pad. www.epinions.com /content_125646704260   (1040 words)

DDR Freak :: View topic - gamestop dance pad?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24) While the "game stop" pad only has 120 days, it is still a good introductory pad for the money and at 20 bucks is a real good deal. If the pad is not secured, when you slip, this internal foam becomes stretched internally allowing a lot of slack to occur. If you tape down the pads firmly, you are much less likely to have internal stretching and bunching of the foam, and thus the pads will last longer. www.ddrfreak.com /phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=8085773&   (2835 words)

I’ve tested the pad for a little over eight hours, and it has yet to miss a step that I was sure I hit. www.talkxbox.com /hreview10.html   (490 words)

IGN: RedOctane Ignition Dance Pad Review The Ignition Pad is an exact imitation of the basic design of the old Konami Deluxe pad. If you've never seen one of those, it's a sandwich of sorts -- two pads are connected with a zipper around the edges to encase a sheet of foam (like the Konami Manner Cushion) that stiffens the whole package and gives it enough bulk to stop slippage. Even considering that the yen was stronger when that pad released a couple of years ago, that's still approximately $20 more for a pad which I wouldn't quite consider the equal of the official DX pad, and twice the price of the regular Konami pad or one of RedOctane's baseline pads. gear.ign.com /articles/356/356404p1.html   (910 words)
