New tunes/dance mat support.

Bizarre Creations has released an update for Boom Boom Rocket that introduces five new tunes as well as guitar and dance mat support.

The latter, revealed earlier this month, ought to buff the game's novelty factor considerably - especially judging by this demo video of someone illustrating the concept through the medium of dance.

Meanwhile, the new tunes are Eine Kleine Rochtmusik, Cannon in D, Sugar High, Sting of the Bumble Bee and Explode to Joy.

The update will be available for free until 16th December, apparently, after which it will be re-priced at 250 Microsoft Points (GBP 2.13 / EUR 2.91).

That's weird, free until the 16th? It's usually the other way around...

I don't think a dance mat would add anything to this. I always saw BBR as a test of agility for the eyes, rather than the feet. True, it is pretty much DDR, but the tricky part is keeping up with a wider field. Not sure if the patterns are designed for dancing either. Especially Toccata and Funk on Hard.

New songs sound great though.

I can't find the updated content. The game did an update when I loaded it but no new songs and the option isn't available in the Download Content area. Am I being stupid?

If you thought you looked stupid playing DDR, wait until you're stepping to the button indicators in this game. It'll just look like you've a spider in your pants.

I'm happy that the expansion to one of my favourite Arcade games is ready, but blowed if I can find it on there.

"Especially Toccata and Funk on Hard." Urgh!

Damn my eyes, why do I always read this as "Chu Chu Rocket" sending me into a hysterical frenzy of joy, before realising my mistake and crashing back to earth with a bump. *sniff*

speedyscotty lived up to his handle, lol. The only thing to add is that the pack is indeed FREE 'til the 16th, and includes some new fireworks to unlock as well.
