lfescalante writes to mention a unique synergistic melding of television and gaming: A Dance Dance Revolution TV show. From the article: "Dance Revolution, said all parties involved, is a live-action television series based on Konami's extremely popular video game franchise Dance Dance Revolution. Notes published by DIC and Konami describe this series as one in which 'tweens' and teens bring their freshest moves to this sensational new dance competition where teams of dancers display their innovative routines."

  1. Watching TV != DDR's Goal? by jkeyes · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I thought DDR was about getting up, moving and maybe getting some exercise and not sit around watching TV. So by making a TV show about getting up and moving isn't that somewhat counterproductive to DDR's intent? I mean I know it's only 1 30 minute show and they're probably watching TV anyway but still it's like those informericials (which is what I'm expecting this to be) for exercise equipment I mean if you're up at 2 AM watching it I really really doubt that $250 ab sharpener, butt tightener and tanner in 1 is going to help.
