You know, I tried playing keyboard mania once when I was in LA. The fucked up thing is that the notes you play on the keyboard do NOT correspond 1:1 to the melody -- meaning pressing a "C" may actually produce an "A" -- which makes the game really hard if, you know, you actually play piano.
This game looks neat though.

Huh, interesting.
The intervalic ratios are right though Toups. They have to use transpositions of the lines because of how small the keyboard is.
I almost bought a Keyboardmania arcade once. I have the game at home and I love playing it |

no, no. Believe me, the intervals were NOT right.
Maybe it was just because I was playing on easy but yeah. It was very plain to see that the right note was not coming out of the keyboard. I had a fellow pianist watching me (hi kinuko!) and she agreed!

yeah, and guitar freaks is messed up, too.
like, on my real telecaster, the big red button actually produces a Q chord.

Well if the keyboard mania controller was just a series of colored buttons that only vaguely resembled a keyboard (like, say, iidx or pop 'n' music) then I wouldn't complain!

| Toups: the easier difficulties in Keyboardmania do that, yeah, but the harder ones (REAL mode, for example) are note-for-note accurate to a real keyboard. |

I should've just played on hard then.

| Well this game looks interesting. Now, if I had a keyboard handy I'd try it out. |

| This has the potential to be pretty sharp, even though it's pretty much devoid of functionality right now. The "inspired by Guitar Hero's innovative gameplay!" thing is kind of ironic, as usual. Hopefully it'll pan out! |

| Yeah, you have to get off of the easy setting to really see it work on keyboardmania. For the full experience, you need to play it as doubles, though it's next to impossible. |

How does this program work? I have PMS files, but how do I get sound to play when I hit the notes?

There's also Keyboardmania for the PC which you can make your own (I think). Also uses midi input.

So is there any noticable difference between this and DoReMi? (except that it directly takes MIDI, is English and open source?)
Why do people think Harmonix invented the guitar simulator? (quote from page: "Inspired by Harmonix's innovative Guitar Hero gameplay.") |

At any rate, since Guitar Hero is vastly superior to Guitar Freaks I am not at all scandalized by this assumption. |

Considering that the only bemani game to have any penetration into the western game-person psyche is DDR, is it really surprising? |
