DDR is a great game & I'm starting to use it as my exercise routine myself at home.
I just pop in DDR or DDR: Konamix into my PSX, get warmed up with a few songs (around the 4-foot range) & then crank it into overdrive with workout mode! The game's challenging & you can easily loose weight! I can normally burn like 300 calories in like 20 minutes & almost 1,000 calories in a hour workout if I keep pushing myself.
This game is easy to learn , but is extremely to master since you have to become fit to become faster, more agile, & quicker to respond. It's only been around 2.5 months since I've started playing & I'm up to the 6-footers (out of nine) & I'm down a good 7 pounds without going into a strict diet or actually keeping a routine!
I hope that more people get into DDR & maybe even into Para Para Paradise (aka PPP), which is similar to DDR, but is more arm work to give your upper body a good workout.
