It's fuckin fast forwarded... you can hear by the background talking and the camera shakes extremely fast.. the shit here is fast as hell hese a weee bit slower.. XD but hese amazing anyways its just this video is fake... see its not by calimist.

Why on earth would I bother faking a video of JJs feet? This was taken at Howie's while we were in SoCal for the US Open. its also pathetically bad. He had just started again after 6 months or so off. His technique was awful.

@Sigatrev Pardon me for being an ITG amateur as well as replying to a year old comment that wasn't even directed at me, but why would Calimist's technique here be considered awful? I ask this not because I think you're wrong, but because I am ignorant on why you would deem this footwork to be awful. In my inexperienced eyes his feet here are insane, but in your eyes he needed improvement. Could you explain to me what he was doing wrong and needed to improve on? Thanks sensei! <3

[Sigatrev]

@VAAMusicalMike Its awful because he's stepping far out into the arrows, moving a lot more than anyone needs to. His left foot does far worse than his right. Nobody who is really good plays that far out, Calimist certainly doesn't anymore. If you want to see what better technique looks like I have plenty of more recent videos showing might tighter foot placement at much higher speeds.

I'm pretty sure you have no idea what you're talking about.

good thing this isn't a dancing game

[AniAddictDaisuken]

Scary as hell...

[iKaGe01]

I could never get as fast as that, simply because my muscles have issues with repeating the same pattern over and over fast like that

You should really try it if you could ever find one, I was really into DDR when it started... Matter of fact as a Fanboy LOL Never like the fact the I saw ITG machines popping up. But once I tried it out of curiosity and I got hooked into ITG after a week... More harder, better music (IMO), better GUI, and better Platforms (Metal Pads).

Not saying EVERYTHING in ITG is better than DDR but a majority of it is to be completely honest.

@IceCadaverX

Konami Sued Roxor because ITG was a huge threat to their DDR Franchise. So they did what a occasional Business man would do. Do whatever they can to Sue them.

Konami now owns the In the Groove Franchise... saying that roxor copied/stole their game and just gave it a different name ETC. So now they have it and they just let it die. Production of ITG is dead. What remains is already been made and sold.

As New DDR Machines get made along with PUI arcade machines as well.

[IceCadaverX]

I see everyone saying DDR died and ITG is better, but...I just learned about ITG today. I've never seen one in my life. But i see DDR machines EVERYWHERE. And they're ALWAYS having quarters chunked into them. Maybe it's the difference in area, but I've never seen a dance machine other than DDR ever. I'm obviously not counting the new motion dance games for consoles because they're not dance machines. I don't like games like this anyway, but...i dunno. Never heard of ITG. Just saying.

cool... BUT HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT THE HOMELESS MAN WITH THE GOLDEN VOICE?!

[VAAMusicalMike]

@Sigatrev Very cool, thank you for the explanation! After looking around at other videos, I understand now what you mean about a tighter foot placement. I can always respect a man who is dedicated to his interests and is willing to teach. Thank you for your insight man =).
