Dance Dance Revolution Party Collection is a music video game that is part of the Dance Dance Revolution and Bemani series. It is developed and produced by Konami and was released in Japan in December 11, 2003 for the PlayStation 2 video game console. It does not have an arcade counterpart.

[edit] Gameplay

Party Collection uses the same engine as DDR Extreme, and there are no major changes in gameplay.

[edit] Songs

Most of the songs in the game are from past versions, such as Dance Dance Revolution 5thMix, DDRMAX (6thMIX), DDRMAX2 (7thMIX), and DDR EXTREME. Party Collection features only 5 brand new songs, Freedom, I Need You (Inside Out Door Mix), Stars (2nd Naoki's Style),' Can Be Real, and PARANOiA -Respect- - a new "PARANOiA" remix which runs at 300 BPM, with several full pauses to catch players off-guard. The last portion of the song contain several 1/8-note runs including freezes which make the other arrows more difficult to sight-read. However, several parts of the song only have 1/4-notes and provide rests for the player. The Heavy steps are rated a "flashing 10". The artist listed is .3k which is actually Sota Fujimori instead of Naoki Maeda.

[edit] Soundtrack

The Original Soundtrack for DDR Party Collection was produced by Toshiba-EMI under their Dancemania dance music brand. It contained all the songs on the game, as well as every song released on the Japanese home versions of Dance Dance Revolution up to that point.
