First I'm a troll, then I have a reasonable opinion? Geez, make up your mind. :P
Anyhow, I kinda see where you're coming from. I'm sure there is a sense of rhythm to Beatmania and DDR. I've played both games multiple times in the past. I used songs I was familiar with to see if I could pick up a rhythm. Problem was, I couldn't.
I think it comes from my main problem with both series. I don't feel like I'm part of the music. The music doesn't change or anything depending on my performance. I just feel like I'm pressing button to visual cues, nothing more. I enjoy game like Elite Beat Agents and Guitar Hero because they make me part of the experience. I feel like I am playing a guitar and I feel like I'm dancing because I command the music, not the other way around. Plus, the games actually punish you for doing poorly. If I miss a note in Guitar Hero, the music changes, and a sour note plays. Elite Beat Agents... well, that game is just plain brutal.
Look, if anyone enjoys the series, I have nothing against them. If you can enjoy the games, by all means, be my guest. Beatmania and DDR just aren't my particular cup of tea.
