DJ Max Portable (International Version) is here
Pentavision‘s DJ Max (DJMAX, DJMax) started out as a multiplayer online game in Korea. It’s a rhythm action game, so you have to push keys in time with the melody or beat (if you’ve played a game that had the words Dance-Dance in its title, you know what we mean).
- English version! Now there’s an English-language version for the PSP: DJ Max Portable (International Version). Yup, “completely English”, says the Play Asia description.
- Features. There’s one new song (“River Flow” by Planetboom). Tracks still come in a wide variety: Techno, K-Pop (Korean Pop), Break beat, Rock, Hip Hop, etc. You can adjust speed and fader, and play a mirror mode. There are lots of other features. Our favorite: Ranking Chart so you can show off just how good you really are. There are unlockable tracks and items in the Gallery Mode.
- Gameplay. Depending on the difficulty setting, you play with four buttons (left, up, triangle, circle) or six (left, up, right, square, triangle, circle). The L/R buttons are used to change the speed.
Update: Sorry if I wasn’t clear. Play Asia has this on stock and they say they can ship it (usually) within 24 hours. Also, thanks to Reneid Klein for this gameplay video. This is a waaay old gameplay vid of the Korean version, but it’s more effective than any “brand new picture” of the English version. You get to see what the hardest setting is like.
So now you know three things: 1) the old Korean version is easy to learn but has songs that are hard to master, 2) the English version has one extra song, and 3) yes, the English version is already available. I am so sorry for any confusion!
