Incrediplex - Far Northeast Side - DDR X2
Posted: Tue Jan 19, 2016 3:24 pm
Went here because I heard there was a DDR X2 machine. This is correct.
It's a Betson X2 so don't expect much. The P1 side's up panel was stuck the entire time I was there. The sound was turned almost all the way down. The P2 side's up panel got stuck for a while but eventually fixed itself. The P2 right panel was just iffy in general. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't.
I asked them to turn the volume up on it, especially the bass since there was none. They left the bass alone but turned up the marquee speakers to the max. Also mentioned to the front desk as I was leaving that the machine needs work.
Now that I've played on an X2 for more than a few rounds, I have to say that Tilt's old X was much better, but I know it was modded. I guess if I ranked all machines and Tilt's old machine based on pad quality it would go:
X JP series = red cabs = Betson SN series = Original JP cabs = K cabs > 2013+ >>>>> Tilt's old X > Betson X2 >>>>>>>>>> Namco crap-o-cabs > Stock Betson X
And overall quality (just as a side note):
X JP series > red cabs = 2013+ > Betson SN series > Original JP cabs >>>> K cabs > Tilt's old X > Betson X2 >>> Stokc Betson X >>>>>>> crap-o-cabs
Although this is coming from someone who's played on like 2 Korean cabs, 2 Betson SNs, a Betson X, and 2 Betson X2s.
The place itself is fairly nice. I'd say it's basically a community center. There's an arcade, a couple bowling lanes, party rooms, bounce houses and such, food, a bar (!), and a huge athletics area. Not typically a place where you'd find DDR, but where is anymore?
