Beatmania IIDX 5th Style

The beat is back! Konami returns with Beatmania IIDX 5th Style which adds to the five key/turntable setup by adding an extra white and black key to the keyboard. Also of note is the bass-pounding subwoofer under the players feet. Now you can 'feel the music' ... literally! As usual with any bemani update, this version adds new music to play!

Start by selecting the desired options, then a song, and attempt to match the notes by pressing the keys and scratching the turntable in time to the music. Perform well enough, and you can continue to the next stage!

Multiple options can be selected before your game begins, which will affect gameplay in various ways. Also, by holding down the VEFX button when selecting from the following songs (new to beatmania IIDX 5th Style), you can play their 'Another' versions. The songs remain pretty much the same, only the notes are harder:

• IIDX
• Come With Me
• Deadline
• Flash Of Love
• Love Again Tonight
• Over The Clouds
• Ride On The Light
• Sometime
• Tengoku No Kissu
• Mobo * Moga
• The Cube
• Abyss
• In My Eyes
• Insertion
• Kiss Me All Night Long
• Outer Wall
• Radical Faith
• Real
• Still In My Heart
• Tablets
• Virtual Mind
• Sync
• Regulus
• QQQ
• Spin The Disc
• V

This is an update to what has been called the most popular arcade DJ game by the "Guinness Book of World Records."

If you wish to play a freeware PC version of the game, go to http://members.tripod.com/~prjb/entr.htm which has a section for the simulator.

Also, just like the previous 3rd Style and 4th Style installments, beatmania IIDX 5th Style has its own Playstation 2 conversion, featuring mostly the new songs from IIDX 5th Style.

The title appears on the marquee as 'beatmania IIDX 5th Style.' Additionally, a large subwoofer under the players' feet sends the game's music vibrating throughout your whole body!

Another bemani series game.

Sometimes in worst-case scenarios, the DVD that provides the in-game video becomes so worn out or scratched that it needs replacement.
