Oh my god, this cd was totally worth every single penny I spent. Once you press play, a never ending session of DDR Awesomeness begins. I've only said this before about the album Viva La Vida, but I enjoy every song on this DDR collection!

Overpriced, But Otherwise a Good Soundtrack

Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2008

This item is incredibly overpriced, but is otherwise exactly what it claims to be- a sountrack of DDR Extreme. The copy I pruchased actually contained 2 disks, one copy with the actual songs used in DDR and another copy of the songs as they would sound if your were playing DDR. The DDR version of some of the songs are slightly different and include the voice of an announcer speaking as if you are playing DDR and getting a perfect score, with such phrases as "P-P-P-Perfect!" and "100 Combo!", which is strange but probably the reason they feel justified for charging so much.

Overated. And too much trance/speed.

Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2004

After being a LONG time veteran of Dancemania albums, I was quite happy to hear that some "Speed" and "classic" songs were popping up in DDR.

After plopping down 30$ on this album, I'm pretty dissapointed.

Many of the songs that are by Konami are pretty attrocious. 1998 and Paranoia Survivor are the only songs that really do Konami (Well, more Naoki) justice.

The many dancemania songs that are scattered throughout the cd are highly shortened versions (average time: 1:30 seconds.) of the originals that appear under the Toshiba Emi Labeling co.

Even songs like Speed Over Bhetoven have parts cut out (Rose's "lalala" song in favor of the chorus being repeated a lot) to make room for another singing of the chorus.

While I'm pretty sad that DDR is no more, pick up some of the older albums (4th, 5th, or Party Collection) for a more unique feel. Too much trance and speed...

Ehhh, great arcade game but so-so disc

Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2005

Um, first thing just a reminder: Be pretty careful if u are gettin the PS2 version, the case looks like a DVD case and the game says PS2 at the top, lol. I was disappointed to hear that the song A was not on the Japanese song set of DDR Extreme. I thought that all the song sets were the same Korean and Japanese cuz my local DDR machine is the Korean one. This cd has alot of good songs but for me, DDR max has way better songs.

Can't get enough of it

Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2004

One day I walked into the arcade and came across a game called DDRExtreme. I saw how good people were at it and thought, "Hey, I want to do that too." I've been playing DDR every Sat. at the arcade for over a month now. I can't get enough of it! It's seriously addicting, and the music is great too. My favorite songs are "Drop the Bomb" "Butterfly" and "I do I do I do" Try the game sometime and get the music too, they're both awesome!

I was first introduced to ddr by a friend, and I immediatly fell in love. As i got better I realized that DDRMAX2 wasnt the newest DDR game. I looked online and found that the newest DDR game was DDR Extreme. I looked on [a website] to find the closest one and I went there. The songs on DDR extreme were better than all the other DDR mix's put together. I would recomend this to anyone whos as much of a ddrfreak as i am, and for the record I would give this more stars if i could.

相変わらずゲーム関係無しに聞ける一枚

Reviewed in Japan on April 12, 2003

東芝EMIからリリースされたアルバムですがDancemaniaからの曲は8曲のみということでコナミオリジナル爆発の一枚です。とはいってもDancemaniaからの曲は数は少なくともどれもクオリティが高く、結構豪華になっています。コナミオリジナルに関しては語るまでもないです。相変わらず強力極まりないといえます。
beatmaniaIIDXからの移植曲もアレンジが施されているものに関しては収録されています。実はIIDXからの曲は短いだけでなく色々とアレンジされているため、原曲を聞き込んでいると意外な発見があるかもしれません。その他のコナミオリジナルからIIDX 9thstyleに収録される曲もあるはず(ロケテスト時点でHYPER EUROBEATは確定?)なのでIIDXの(コアな)ファンにもオススメできます。
このシリーズの魅力はDisc2のノンストップメガミックスですが、今回は前作ほど収録曲が多くないため1曲1曲のボリュームが大きくなっています。コナミオリジナルは前々作までのようなリミックスこそされていないものの、DJ BOSSによるロングバージョンは相変わらずのセンスの良さが光っています。
唯一且つ最大の欠点は海外版家庭用DDRMAXオリジナルの曲が収録されていないということ。これがあれば星5つにしてもよかったのですが…

ビーマニからの移植曲も沢山！

何度聞いても飽きの来ないハイレベルな曲、TranceやEuroとジャンルがバラエティに富んだ楽曲の豊富さはどのサントラでも、とても素晴らしいのですがこのExtremeのサントラは特に素晴らしいと思います。
なぜならこのExtreme、タイトルにもある通りビーマニからの移植曲がとても多いのです。
元々、DDRの楽曲性は始めにも書いた通りレベルが高いのですが、今回はビーマニからの移植曲が特に多く収録されており、さらにDDRに磨きがかかったのではないかと僕は思います。
個人的に、聞いて欲しい楽曲は
Colors～for EXTREME～と
V～for EXTREME～です。
どちらも、ビーマニの曲なのですが、とても良い曲なので買ったら聞いてみてください。
