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 version of Beatmania 3rd Mix, titled Beatmania Append 3rd Mix (although a good deal of the info should work for the arcade version as well). 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 3rd Mix (the original release, as well as the later Append discs, Gottamix 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 3rd Mix System: PSX Intro: The first separate 'append', or add-on disc for the original Playstation release. The disc features all of songs from the 3rd Mix Arcade release, hence the reason that some of the songs are repeated from the Arcade disc and the original Append disc. As with the first Append disc, you must first insert the original Arcade Disc. 0.02: Stage Flow___________________________________________ Stage Flow: Stage 1:--------Stage 2:-------Stage 3:----------Stage 4: Ambient J-Dance Pop House Big Beat Mix Soul Hiphop Bossa Groove House (Classic) Ballad (Classic)Funky Jazz Reggae Drum'n Bass (Classic) J-Dance Pop Groove* Soul (Classic) World Groove Hiphop House Big Beat Mix Euro Beat Bossa Groove House (Classic) Hard Techno 80's J-Pop* D'n Bass (Classic)Drum'n Bass Reggae Digi-Rock* Soul (Classic) Digital Funk* 0.03: Hidden Songs_________________________________________ Requirements to get the hidden songs: In order to get: score at least: in this (or one of these) genre(s): Stage 1: 80's j-pop 35,000 ballade (classic) 80's j-pop 67,000 j-dance pop 80's j-pop 80,000 hiphop 80's j-pop 95,000 ambient, soul Stage 2: digital funk 45,000 reggae, soul (classic) digital funk 47,000 bossa groove digital funk 65,000 funky jazz groove digital funk 87,000 house digital funk 90,000 j-dance pop, 80's j-pop digital funk 92,000 hiphop Stage 3: digi rock 42,000 digital funk digi rock 45,000 drum'n bass (classic) digi rock 55,000 reggae, soul (classic) digi rock 60,000 bossa groove digi rock 64,000 house (classic) digi rock 67,000 bigbeat mix digi rock 97,000 house 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.
