Introduce yourselves! I’ll start.
Hi, I’m RGTM. I’m a rhythm gamer, music producer, moderator for Zenius-I-vanisher.com, and recently, an officiator for various rhythm game tournaments.
In the year 2000, when I was 7, I was introduced to the music gaming scene in Wildwood, New Jersey, where I found a DDR 1st cabinet in one of the boardwalk arcades. I saw someone playing and thought to myself, “doesn’t seem hard at all”, and tried it for myself. I sucked majorly, failing BUTTERFLY on BASIC. Even though I had a really rough start, I became very interested in DDR and other music games ever since. Thankfully, a DDR EXTREME popped up in my local arcade and I was playing that periodically. However, my interest truly ignited when I got DDR EXTREME 2 on Christmas, along with Guitar Hero. Yes, Guitar Hero was very appealing and popular at the time, but my main focus was the BEMANI franchise. I’ve started to do some online research on the music games that KONAMI made, and found myself holding BEMANI as a part of my life.
Currently, I play DDR, IIDX, and a little bit of the following (SMX, SDVX, CHUNITHM, GROOVE COASTER, MUSIC DIVER, WACCA), but my main rhythm game of choice is jubeat.
