description
DJing and Bemani fans listen up!
From the Korean game maker Pentavision comes a special PSP™ version of the web-based and mobile music mixing game DJ Max. The game resembles Konami's popular beatmania series: You take the position as DJ and are challenged to hit the correct button(s) on your PSP™ handheld at the right time to complete the song.
The game is now completely in English and makes DJ Max easy to understand and to pick up for persons without any Korean knowledge. With more than 50 tracks to choose from (including K-Pop, Techno, Breakbeat, Hip Hop, Rock and other popular genres), every music game fan will find a tune of his taste. Lyrics of all songs are included in the game's manual as bonus.
Prior song selection, you will have several options available, such as speed & fader adjustment, mirror mode selection and more. After completion of a song, you will receive a summary of your performance, including a combo & break counter, rating and score.
Your achievements are saved into a Ranking Chart. Additionally, you can unlock new tracks and items in the Gallery Mode.
Depending on the difficulty level, DJ Max can be played in either 4 button (left, up, triangle, circle) or 6 button mode (left, up, right, square, triangle, circle). You can further manually increase the speed with the L/R buttons.
DJ Max contains a number of game modes and extras as listed up below. Be warned that rookies might have their difficulties in the beginning; DJ Max's difficulty level is adjusted to experienced gamers.

Rookie DJing: Easy difficulty 4 button mode. 10 tracks are selectable from the start.
Pro DJing: Normal difficulty 6 button mode. 11 tracks are selectable from the start.

So good! So cool Just play it forever whenever whoever..
Beatmania i heard a lot of hype about this game, so i decided to give it a go. i can find little to no difference between this game and the slew of beatmania titles that have been available for ages on the ps1 and ps2. if you like beatmania or pop'n' music, you'll like this. the music is the same old crappy type of bubble gum you've heard in most of those titles, and the videos in the background are of a somewhat more coherent inanity. the gameplay is somewhat more forgiving (and entirely adjustable) than the bemani games which makes it more accessible. it is a decent game, but nothing special in the rhythm genre.
Amazing Quite easily the best PSP game in existence. Perhaps even one of the best games of all time. Ridiculously addictive. It has catchy music and keeps you coming back for more. Ever since I got it I've played on it almost every day for at least an hour. Considering I've had it a good few months that's a lot of time :P
BUY THIS GAME NOW!

PC to PSP Amazing game, I am very pleased to have bought it, and this was the main reason I bought a PSP at all for. Compared to the PC ver there are lots of formiller songs and many other ones I never got the chance to play. Simple, fun, and great game to play on the go or sitting at home. So if I'm doing something, play a song or two and turn it off. A must have for all gamers.

Fun but Hard... Just got the game and I can't stop playing it. It's really hard but it's sooo much fun. This is also my first purchase from play-asia and all I can say is they are the best! Great customer service and fast shipping!

Best Psp music game ever I jus got this game and i am hooked i have played it for almost 3 hours straight trying to unlock everything.It is a challenge and you can even unlock the real beatmania skin.If you have a psp you must get this game worth every penny.Playasia is the number one shop to buy imports!
DJ Max Portable A truly brilliant rhythm game. A great selection of songs and an anime theme make the game an easy ten out of ten. Simply one of the greatest games ever released. It's a shame this was only released in Korea, because if it was released on a worldwide basis, it would be an instant hit. Best piece of gaming masterpiece I've seen in a long time, very addictive.

so much fun my friend has it, and i played it a couple times. i was hooked. heard about it from videos on google, played it, it's so much fun. i didn't want to copy my friend by buying it, so i'm gonna wait on part 2, whenever that's coming out. it's a lot like beatmania, just that instead of the turntable there's the spinning joystick. this one's in english too, so can't go wrong with that.

greatest music game! this game is just amazing.. it's fun to play and fun to watch others play as well. it could be difficult but just keep on practising and you will eventually be able to play the songs, but for some it may be extremely fustrating to having to replaying the songs over and over. the game offers tones of songs and different modes/difficulties for people of different levels of skills. a must have for music game lovers!

Great game but no VS mode. This game is awesome, i love DDR so i thought i would try this one out and i'm glad i did. If you like DDR you'll love this one too. Only thing i didn't like was the lack of a VS mode but hopefully part 2 will have it.

Off the Hook!!! This game is totally off the Hook!
Okay this game rocks to no end. I LOVE music games, and buy just about all the American released games. But this one is only coming out so far in Asia. But the minute I read about it, I knew I had to own it and buy it. It totally rocks my world. I love playing it because it is like playing a musical instrument, most close to the Keyboards. If you hit the key at the right time, it sounds like a keyboard, or other instrument. Miss a notice and its sour, just like in real life.
My only negative, is I wish there was a stange where you could continue on, even if you miss seveal notes. After all practice makes perfect is what I learned playing the keyboard. I know you miss notes, but you shouldn't be made to start the song all over again.
So far can only make it 3rd song in a trial. I still haven't saved my progress. I think you have to make it through a long sequence of songs.
Two Gamer thumbs way up for this one! Play-asia, thanks for allowing us to import this one.
Peace.
