It's also now a series of guides to Beatmania, Dance Dance Revolution and the rest of the BEMANI series of rhythm games by Konami. While not comprehensive, it should begin to answer some of the questions that you might have about the games. Please note that this FAQ only covers the Playstation release of Beatmania Append Gottamix. For a more comprehensive look at Beatmania and the rest of the BEMANI series, including things like Soundtracks (audio CDs), strategy guides, portable LCD games (like Beatmania Pocket), and much much more, please check out my longer work titled DJ Syndrome: The BEMANI Series FAQ. All of the information contained in this FAQ is also available in the longer, more comprehensive work titled "DJ Syndrome: The BEMANI Series FAQ". This document is merely a scaled down version that only pertains to the Playstation release Beatmania Append Gottamix (the original release, as well as the other Append discs, 3rd and 4th Mix, are _not_ covered). This is my final planned release for this FAQ. Please see my BEMANI series FAQ (the Compendium at gamefaqs.com) for more up-to-date BEMANI/Beatmania info. Title: Beatmania Append Gottamix System: PSX Intro: Although not a mix released in the arcades, Beatmania Append Gottamix features tracks both from the arcade releases as well as original playstation tracks. As with the other Append discs, the original Arcade Disc must first be inserted. 0.02: Stage Flow___________________________________________ __Stage Flow: Stage 1:--------Stage 2:-------Stage 3:----------Stage 4: real garage hiphop dj~battle break beats hip and soul crossover r&b collage techno raga rock dj~battle rock'n techno jazz electro bigbeat r&b j-garage pop trance hiphop rock'n techno free soul euro beat j-garage pop break beats gabbah* drum'n bass* collage techno r&b (hard version)* nonstop megamix* *hidden song 0.03: Hidden Songs_________________________________________ In order to get: score at least: in this (or one of these) genre(s): Stage 1: drum'n bass 91,000 bigbeat drum'n bass 94,000 raga rock, hip-hop drum'n bass 95,000 real garage drum'n bass 96,000 hip and soul Stage 2: nonstop megamix 82,000 r&b nonstop megamix 83,000 j-garage pop nonstop megamix 84,000 dj~battle nonstop megamix 90,000 drum'n bass nonstop megamix 93,000 rock'n techno nonstop megamix 94,000 hip-hop, crossover Stage 3: gabbah 66,000 nonstop megamix gabbah 68,000 collage techno gabbah 69,000 free soul gabbah 82,000 r&b gabbah 83,000 j-garage pop gabbah 84,000 dj~battle gabbah 85,000 breakbeats gabbah 93,000 rock'n techno r&b (hard version) 72,000 nonstop megamix r&b (hard version) 74,000 collage techno r&b (hard version) 78,000 free soul r&b (hard version) 88,000 j-garage pop r&b (hard version) 93,000 dj~battle, r&b r&b (hard version) 96,000 breakbeats r&b (hard version) 98,000 rock'n techno 0.04: Song List____________________________________________ [note: if multiple BPMs are listed, then it starts at the first number, then changes to the next number, then the next, etc. The first number in the Notes category is the number in notes in 1P mode, and the second number is for 2P mode.
