After receiving more than a few emails regarding the "World Record" for DDR Max 2 set by Twin Galaxies, and how it was considerably lower than one would expect for a "World Record", I was motivated to get Takeo Ueki (Pronounced "tah-kay-oh oo-eh-key"), a world-class DDR player living in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, to try and set things straight, and that he did.

Using the rules layed out by Twin Galaxies, (such as no modifiers (at the time; the rules have since been amended to allow speed modifiers), no playing the same song *more* than twice, etc.), Take was able to set a total score of 652,095,760 out of a maximum possible 660,000,000 (based on Twin Galaxies' rules), and a "Last 3 Stages" result (including the 2 Extra Stages) of 473,066,535 out of a maximum possible 480,000,000.

Here is the runthrough of each stage during the record. Click the thumbnail image to get a larger version. At long last, after months of mailing and waiting, Take's record was finally, officially accepted, the official records page for Take's accomplishment is here, and this page is now here to detail the events of that world record for all to see.

Anyways, on with the show:
