This should be a shocking news: next version of DM/GF may not be V7, but instead XG......
probably is a location test.....

dm: floor tom, left cymbal and double bass feature added :twisted:

gf: added two buttons to 5 buttons (same as GH...)

That doesn't explain why there is a Japan-wide sweep of DTX simfile sites that do not contains GFDM songs at all. Wouldn't Konami be actually stealing DTXMania's concept in this case?

Just heard about this not too long ago and I can't believe it. It's exactly what I've said the series needed down to the last detail, bwahahahaha! The only thing I don't like is the GUI.

Did it ever occur to anyone that maybe DTXMania lived on for so long because it was essentially both free development, QA, and beta-testing for Konami? They could just pull the plug whenever development got to a point that they saw fit.

コナミもイヤミな真似するなぁ…。

レーン数は同じになった(?)けど、これでDTXManiaとの演奏互換性はなくなるわけか?

とりあえず見てこよう。


Translation of Google

I also want to imitate a mi ... Konami.

Number of lanes is the same (?) But, in this DTXMania play or not will not be compatible with?

Hiring at the moment.


Seems not as you said.

I'm not quite sure I understand the context of what he's saying.

Well what a pleasant surprise! Even better that they are moving old songs over.
Maybe we'll finally see some X-Japan on there :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
Those sound screens on each side seem like a great idea as well.
