Penis music mix. Quantity over quality and most of the new licenses are as corny or worse than 1st mix, but not 'endearing' in the same way - just like, the kinda radio station shit that'd make you reach for the dial.
I do like a lot of new tracks - the AMD remixes, Get Up and Dance, Wonderland, Upside DOwn, Holiday, End of the Century, Afronova, - but even my favorites from this are just novelties. 2nd Mix was backloaded w songs I couldn't imagine DDR without, yet 3rd Mix's selection feels like that one friend you invite out of obligation even tho they're kinda off-putting and rude. Can't hate too much since it's the series debut of artists like E-Rotic and Captain Jack, but it feels like their best songs wouldn't debut until a couple mixes later.
Also why did they backpedal the unlock requirements for Maniac charts? In 1st mix they were a cheat code, in 2nd mix they finally move them on a toggle (it's still hidden, but like, the input is technically the exact same as every later mix). Here they moved it to its own mode called 'Step Step Revolution'. I will give it credit: I think acknowleding that Maniac charts are less dancing and more stepping is way more appropriate, and I would've been fine w the name change if it wasn't something that required internet access or a cheatbook to find out. When I went to arcades w my aunt in middle school she always called DDR 'spider stomping', so I guess it's appropriate.
Oh also, Emi and Rage debut in this game as playable dancers! :D

The Ver Korea 2 version of this game was my introduction to DDR, so I have a lot of nostalgia for this one. Many good songs with some of the most iconic charts (Afronova especially).
Always make a beeline for these cabinets at my local N64, but as for the Playstation, my god Afronova maniac and Love this Feelin still kick my ass every time and I'm thankful for it. 3rd mix has the best original playlist and character range/design. Shelved but not really because DDR is Eternal.
these DDR games just keep getting better and better. Adds a lot of new modes and features that keep the game fresh, while also having a brand new banger setlist to keep yourself movin to. The game has a lot of songs from the previous games as well, and even if theres something missing the disc change feature is still intact. These games just keep building on an already great formula and now I can certifiably say I am a DDR convert (even though I still suck at it.)
ここまではやりつくしました。アフロノバとかデッドエンドとか大変だったなぁ……
