Title: itt EBA is not lol
Post by: Groudon on February 03, 2007, 12:01:35 pm
I'll make one rule for this: Anyone who thinks EBA is lol is not allowed to post here.  That means you, PsyBorg.

/me run

Anyway, this thread is for Elite Beat Agents discussion.
edit: Here's the soundtrack (http://gh.ffshrine.org/soundtracks/6654).

I never liked that song; it was very annoying. The cover just reminded me of something I thought I erased from my past... *shivers*

Anyway...

The best example of this is ABC.  They mixed most everything around to make it fit on the DS cart.  Most songs are shortened to fit on the cart, but not all of them.  Jumpin' Jack Flash and Walkie Talkie Man are the 2 they lengthened.

I like the Main Menu theme, BTW.

I felt sorry for you as EBA seems to be your life ATM (or was) and noone else seems to have it/feels like posting... :P

I got it for my nephew. (the same week I gave my DS to him) It's a really nice game and he loved it. But I don't have access to it.

btw I wouldn't consider music games, or any game having licensed music, especially old pop songs, as having the 'best soundtrack'. I'm just throwing that out there

Finally, I know other people who have EBA.

   A few months ago I decided to try and get an A on every level in Sweatin. I've done that, though I accidentally saved an S-rank I got using AR (note: Anybody who has an ARDS, Don't use it on this game!) and also, that was on Jumpin jack flash, which is the hardest song in the game(I regrett those last few words). I don't even have the time to try to get that A back,( without using AR) not to mention the fails I've gotten for that level when I've attempted it. This whole entire idea started when I got an A on The Anthem( I have the actuall CD that the song is on(and I know it by heart)). Now, I think that September is the easiest song to get asn A on.

2 things.

1) Be careful about bumping old topics.
2) A-ranks are weak.  S-ranks are where it's at. :)

Oh, I forgot. I also noticed that parts of songs have been shortened and lengthen. I can understand this because They want to make the game E10, and the fact that Highway Star is an extremely long song, but some things I can't understand, like why they took a part out of Sk8rBoi. I mean, why? There's no difference( well, really, there is). But, I just don't get it. It'd be more satisfying to just leave it as is.

I know that S ranks are better, though I can't even manage one(how do you get S rank?).

1) They probably did that because the song would be too long for the scenario.  The E10 rating might have remained even if they kept the second verse of Highway Star, even though it contains the semi-suggestive line "she turns me on" (hell, The Anthem had "shake it three times, you're playing with yourself again").
2) Your 300 count needs to be at least 90% of the beats, your 100 count can't exceed 9%, and your 50 count can't exceed 1%.  You also can't have any misses.
3) Use the Modify button, plz

I do get 90% (at least I think I do).
Title: Re: itt EBA is not lol
Post by: Groudon on November 05, 2007, 07:10:44 pm
Perhaps you're getting too many 50s then (or you're getting misses).
Title: Re: itt EBA is not lol
Post by: ieatatsonic on November 08, 2007, 05:13:22 pm
I don't get any 50s( A lot, like, 90% of the time) and I get only 1 or 2 misses.
Title: Re: itt EBA is not lol
Post by: Groudon on November 08, 2007, 05:32:13 pm
Like I said, you cannot have any misses or you won't get an S-rank.
Title: Re: itt EBA is not lol
Post by: ieatatsonic on November 09, 2007, 04:08:02 pm
The only time I didn't get any misses was when I played "Makes no Difference" and I still got an A.
Title: Re: itt EBA is not lol
Post by: Crowbar on November 09, 2007, 04:22:16 pm
Then obviously you didn't meet the other requirements.
Title: Re: itt EBA is not lol
Post by: ieatatsonic on November 09, 2007, 05:10:39 pm
Actually, I did. But I didn't get an S.
Title: Re: itt EBA is not lol
Post by: Groudon on November 09, 2007, 10:58:49 pm
What was the difficulty, 100 total, and 50 total?
Title: Re: itt EBA is not lol
Post by: ieatatsonic on November 10, 2007, 12:47:24 pm
The difficulty was sweatin, and I don't know what you mean by 100% total.
Title: Re: itt EBA is not lol
Post by: Groudon on November 10, 2007, 01:50:26 pm
Not 100% total.  Total number of 100s you got.
Title: Re: itt EBA is not lol
Post by: ieatatsonic on November 10, 2007, 02:54:04 pm
Oh. I just looked at my record and it says I got 1 miss. I got 19 100s, though I guess I forgot about that one miss.

Sorry for all the commotion(i.e. Bumping the topic, asking all the questions, etc.) but now that I know how to get an S without AR, I can figure out whether or not I get an S. I got two S-ranks yesterday( I got them on "September" and "Y.M.C.A.")!
