I debated the logic behind Bemani's drive to port
their Dance Dance Revolution game to handhelds and mobile phones simply because I didn't see the role of any
form of "dancing" in the act of rhythmically tapping your thumbs on a keypad. But since there are probably
maniacal DDR fans out there obsessed enough to want to play a dancing game even when they can't technically
dance, I have to concede in its existence. But, since Konami has no plans at the moment to delight PSP fans with hours
of sequential button-pressing, homebrewer GameShark thought it prudent to let us know of a free DDR game for
PSP he's made available at no charge to consumers. This version doesn't offer head-to-head waltzing or jitterbugging,
but a future release might over ad-hoc. At least then we won't have to go dancing by ourselves anymore. Oh wait, I
think I'm going to cry. No, I'm okay now.[Thanks, GameShark]

jee, you newsposters sure are dramatic
it's called stepmania
you're able to (on the computer versions) play it with a hooked up ddr mat or what lots of people do, use their keyboards!
it's rather popular, even versions of stepmania online pop up, where you can play the same song with the others who have it, and see each others scores at the end, rather fun sometimes
i've tried psprevolution, not sure if this is a different version but psprevolution takes stepmania song files and lets you play them
pure beta though. not too many settings, but still pretty powerful
