People keep making the mistake of starting Rhythm Game threads with the best game of all time. It just overshadows everything else in the thread.
Best battle and song

>>342050695
I'm not even kidding when I say Gitaroo Man being a PS2 classic on PS4 was my biggest dream for E3 this year.
Is there even anywhere you can request classics like that or something?
is this the place where i advertize my sick youtube video

That might be your best bet, but I imagine you would need a lot of people to submit the same kind of requests for it to even get noticed.

No, it needed more songs.

>>342050981
>probably an unpopular opinion but I don't think Parappa holds up at all
Parappa didn't hold up at launch. It's a "rhythm" game, but the queues to hit buttons do not correspond to any rhythm of the song. It fails at the most basic level.
Still a great memorable game, but failed at the most basic level from a gameplay perspective. I had been playing bass for years whne I picked it up, I certainly had rhythm-- I couldn't understand what the game wanted me to do and I couldn't pass chop chop master onion

Fuck.
>>342049237
Come on man, Natural Playboy is the best song from that game.
>>342051570
There definately is a delay between when you'd think to press the button and when they actually want you to; for me though, it ended up making sense and didn't bother me past level two. Lots of people talk about this delay on the later releases blaming hdtvs or something, thats just how the game was.
>>342052598
its just poorly designed they didnt know what they were doing with the gameplay. i mean, what a surprise that the japs don't understand rhythm. huge surprise.
for what its worth, its probably the game that exists with 10/10 characters and 1/10 gameplay
>>342052736
>what a surprise that the japs don't understand rhythm
Name one good rhythm game that *wasn't* made in Japan (or Korea).
>>342048997
Gitaroo Man needed more fucking songs. It's severely lacking in content, but the content that is there is amazing.
>>342052810
uhh guitar hero is literally the only good rhyhtm game
>>342052810
Even if they're casual, RB/GH are pretty solid rythm games.
I spent almost a hundred hours, if not more, in Rock BandUnplugged.
>>342052939
PSP version added two songs.
>>342052736
>japs don't understand rhythm
Nigga wat. The vast majority of good rhythm games are made by japs.
>>342053124
Wasn't it only one for the multi?
>tfw you'll never play Gitaroo Man for the first time again
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zacUcCCOoRw
>>342053285
the only good rhythm games are guitar hero i dunno how you could be confused about this at all
the super furious button mashing shit they play has nothing to do with rhythm, it has to do with pattern memorization, its no different from touhou and that shit.
>you will never play parappa for the first time again
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmzMTkXLYoI
>>342053294
It's two "duets" but you can play them single player.
>>342053414
>the super furious button mashing shit they play has nothing to do with rhythm, it has to do with pattern memorization
You can mash buttons completely out of time in Guitar Hero and pass songs with ease, but be a fraction of a second off the beat in beatmania, and it's a stage fail for you. Which one was more about the rhythm again?
Also it's not pattern memorization, it's reflexes and muscle memory. Like every other video-game ever? Including Guitar Hero?
>being this fucking casual
>>342051650
The /jp/ rhythm game threads have been good lately. It's nice to be able to talk about IIDX among other people who understand it.
Looking forward to playing Copula tonight.

>You can mash buttons completely out of time in Guitar Hero and pass songs with ease
no, you really can't. and I don't care how close the timings are, I wasn't discussing how hard the games are. the jap games are pattern repetition, the western games are response in realtime. japs learn to repeat the patterns with exact timing; it isn't rhythm, it's repetition. that is what japs do.
and yes, if not playing jap rhythm games makes me casual, i'll be casual. I'd definitely rather be casual than be a fan of the type of games that outright indicate autism and social deficiency. There is not a single normal person who loves those jap rhyhtm games.

It's a little surprising to see him stick with this angle rather than the usual
>play Rocksmith and learn a real instrument and/or kill yourself faggots
which I'm sure is soon to arrive if the thread lives.
I bought rhythm heaven megamix, and I have to say that all those tsunku songs are shit.
All of them. Who even is this fag? Did he fund this game or something?
Everytime I have to play a game with his songs my mood drops considerably and I end up focusing on cues instead
>>342052996
>>342053085
>>342053414
but you guys do realize that RB and GH are literally just casualized ripoffs of Bemani games right?
Guitar Freaks and Drummania were both released in the 90s but apparently American devs didn't even realize they existed for practically 10 years
>>342053923

I just got the psp version and didn't know if it was me or not but it felt off.
I want to get into rhythm games and thought it was a good start, the closest thing to a rhythm game I have played was mother 3 with the comboing I enjoyed a lot. Any other suggestions? Gitaroo man looks really cool but I heard its really hard.
>>342054102
i play real instruments bro. i'm not a "fan" of any game, guitar hero games are fun and the jap games aren't
the only thing that can make this genre fun is using an instrument controller, if you are one of the keyboard arrow key retards playing those hyperspeed games on pc, its literally autism
there are things that are literal autism and youre so used to seeing the word you dont understand. playing jap rhythm games is LITERAL ***ACTUAL*** AUTISM
playing guitar hero games is something i did with friends while hanging out until they got old in 2.5 years.
>>342054581
guitar hero bro. listen to the real person in this thread not the people who base their lives around liking japanese games because they are japanese games
i heard great things about guitaroo man and never played it, of course ih eard great things about parappa too.
it looks like the gameplay of guitaroo man is moving the analog stick different directions........would be considered a flash game by todays standards
just play guitar hero with a guitar controller its really not that hard. these games are meant to be social, playing them alone is autism
is this the single most underrated rhythm game series?
>>342054587
>I play real instruments (That I won't actually name)
>And the Jap games (I won't actually name)
>Literal autism (When learning a instrument is the most autism safe thing ever)
I couldn't get more smug than I already am.
>>342054587
>the only thing that can make this genre fun is using an instrument controller
how about using an actual fucking drum kit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DomKEgZnT0o
or is playing an instrument also literal autism now?
>>342054587
>>342054727
>its fun with friends
ah yes the ultimate fallback argument of morons trying to defend bad games
>>342054843
it's the sort of the same thing, but not really, though i don't understand the point of playing the game if you can actually drum. if you think this means this guy can drum, then yuo dont' understand that half of drumming is dynamics. i guess the dopamine release is there for some people, it wouldn't be for me
>>342054587
>>342054727
I feel like being this stupid should incur some sort of divine punishment as a matter of karmic balance.
Like being crushed to death by falling popnmusic controllers, I dunno. Either way, you're a fucking idiot.
>>342054976
>Either way, you're a fucking idiot.
and you're a guy who sits in front of jap games playing jpop and furiously smashes buttons with 0 rhythm whatsoever while i play the bass in real life. guess which one of us got pussy from this

Did it take you one or two days to learn it?

>implying it's underrated
The lack of anime/vidya songs in anything other than arcades disturbs me, though.
>>342055070
>playing the fucking bass
also have you seen how many girls play pop'n music in japan?
>>342055070
>it's a bass player brags about having sex one time episode
oh man you can't make this shit up
>>342055349
anon, if i went to japan i could get laid by an 8/10 girl in one day on virtue of being white.
One other thing which I always wonder, because it always comes up -
Arcade shooters and music games get called "literal autism" all the time, yet no literally autistic people play them.
Literally autistic people play Minecraft and Sonic. They don't play any arcade game made by Cave or Konami.
Anyone?
>>342055365
>it's a bunch of people who don't play any instruemnts and aren't involved in any live music in any way think they can shit on bass players because it's a meme
in the 90 this meme used to be about drummers, it'll probably be singers next decade. #staymadtho:)
>>342055568
>this game is too hard for me
>that person can play it but i can't
>they must be autistic
boohoo
So do any of you guys actually play instruments? I started playing violin 3 years ago, I'm shit but I'm happy with how I've advanced.
>try to find sheet music for simple game music
>all of it is piano sheet music
Fuck.
Just wanna say. Im not the biggest fan of rhythm games and im bad at them but I can respect the skill some of them take. Party hard everyone!
>>342055579
i have a piano diploma. idiot.
>>342055568
That's because calling something autistic is actually just code word for "I'm shit at this, and I need to belittle anyone who's better than me."
BEAUTY IS A SIN
>>342048997
Gitaroo Man. Easily one of my favorite games of all time.
>>342055495
>>342055579
>this level of delusion
I feel sorry for you guys honestly
at least people who play and enjoy rhythm games just do it for fun to pass the time and know it won't really get them anywhere in life
but being a white bassist
thats the real ticket to being superior to everyone right there
anyone else getting destroyed by Rhythm Heaven Megamix's challenge mode? there is always one game in a lineup that throws me off
>>342056283
Try looking away from the screen. My timing gets better when I focus on the bottom screen and ignore the top one.
>>342055770
I played piano from ages 8-10, picked up a bass around 16 and haven't stopped. And no, I'm not the other bassfag whining about 'jap rhythm games are AUTISM!!!'.
Also, it's pretty easy to take piano sheet music and transcribe it (even mentally) into whatever insturment you want.
>>342054779
>Arcades fucking everywhere in Japan

He probably meant in Burgerland, silly anon~
>Never gonna be super good at rhythm games

I still envy those super nerds who can beat level 50 songs on o2jam though.
Just came here to say that the fucking red goggles dude in rhythm heaven megamix is the devil.
Those fucking challenges are sadistic as fuck
>>342056502

I bet you're one of those sad fucks who idolizes les claypool and victor wooten

>>342054581
Gitaroo man isn't too difficult, even on hard. Elite Beat Agents, on the other hand...
Recommend me some good underrated rithym games /v/.
>>342057369
No, more like Jamiroquai, Macross 88-92, and other funk & funk variety artists. Good guess, though.
Who do you like, bass-wise? I've been trying to get into jazz & bebop, but can't find good artists besides the Seatbelts.
>>342058563
It's not that underrated, but Rhythm Heaven for GBA is preddy fun.
>>342058563
Most of these are underrated to people who don't play rhythm games, so I'll just list them all.
Beatmania IIDX or Lunatic Rave 2
Pop'n music
K Shoot Mania (or Sound Voltex if it's available at your arcade)
Project Diva
Taiko no Tatsujin (Most people know this one)
There's also Audiosurf, although I wouldn't really consider that a rhythm game.
DJMAX is a PSP rhythm game, I think.
Dance Masters for Xbox 360 on the Xbox Live Arcade. requires a kinect.
>>342058529
Superbeat Xonic if you have a Vita.
>>342059316
fug, meant for >>342058563
>>342058627
James Jamerson nigga. it was in the fucking post. jesus christ.
if you don't know him, be prepared to learn what your instrument is about. he is the most influential and you've probably never heard of him.
learn kid charlemagne if you like tehs hit you like
Crack crack crack the egg into the bowl.
>>342054581
Rock Band is pretty fun and easily a more accessible title just because it's not an obscure older title and has a lot of songs you've probably heard already. I prefer Rock Band Blitz though as far as an actual rhythm game goes though.
Project Diva F is also great, and even though I don't care about vocaloids (or even the other games, despite buying F2nd almost day one I've barely played it in comparison) I still managed to drop over 100 hours into the game just because of how fun it is. Easily my favorite game from 2013 even if it'd never show up on any "best of" lists.
Elite Beat Agents is a masterpiece as well though if you're afraid that Gitaroo Man will be too hard then you might be better off putting it off till later. And don't play Osu, it just isn't the same in my opinion. It has none of the soul of EBA/Ouendan. Just feels like you're hitting buttons and not playing a real game of the series.

i don't know if you did it on purpose but :ok hand:
>>342054779
I've got the PS2 one and it's kinda neat. Tried it in Yakuza 5 and also liked it. Never really played either for any period of time though.
I want to like it more but I guess I just can't be assed. Doesn't help that those are pretty much the only stateside releases of this game.
Also wish I could play pop'n music. Those games look cool but they're just NEVER EVER tier for me I guess.
>>342060473
Also forgot to mention Rhythm Heaven Fever. Never played any of the other games besides the DS one which I wasn't a fan of but it's excellent. Really forces you to get into the rhythm and not rely on screen cues too which is great.
