Dancing Games
So I play dancing games. Specifically, this one called In The Groove.
Without sounding too full of myself, I am good at this game. Like really, really good. It’s a big part of my life.
So why am I posting about something I like so much on our Shit Blog? Well, whilst it is true that I very much love the dancing game. THIS is horse shit:
Let me explain. Each time you hit a step (they’re actually referred to as ‘notes’ by hardcore players), you are judged on how well you hit the step. If you are within 0.0215 seconds of the actual note, you are awarded a FANTASTIC on that particular note. If you are between 0.0215 and 0.043 seconds of the actual note, you get a EXCELLENT, and between 0.043 and 0.102 is a GREAT.
I have played this game so much, and for SO LONG that I can tell if I have hit a note on beat or off beat. And when I played this particular song, that GREAT was definitely NOT ME. Every so often something goes wrong with the pads and a step doesn’t register, or it registers late or whatever. We call these PAD GREATS.
And it’s pad greats that are shit.
That is all.
Edit: WHERE IS YOUR ONE GREAT NOW, MOTHER FUCKAHHHH!
Dang. Will chocolate milk make everything better?
