I think that some of the people that were excited by the idea of Final Fantasy Theatrhythm might have bought it, played it for a few days, and then sent it to rot in their huge, unfinished game collection. Not judging! I do that all the time. It's just that I'm still in love with this game, and still play it everyday.

I get that rhythm games aren't for everybody, but this one really speaks to me. Sure, it's just tapping and sliding, but its also a journey down memory lane as it lets me (kind of) revisit some of the best moments in Final Fantasy history.

But what really has me coming back is the challenge. I love how they didn't hold back with some of the ball buster levels. Mind you, I've beat this game once already and maxed out several characters with the Japanese version, and I'm almost to the same place again with the US release. I just love it that much.

Am I alone? Or are you still Theatrhythming?

Yes, I play this game in bed the hour before I go to sleep everyday. I only have have one character at 99, though (mother fucking BARTZ).
Theatrhymthming is my new favorite verb.
I want it, but I haven't seen it in any of the stores near me yet. Demo was great though. Might have to go play that again now.
I am totally still in it. Can NOT get enough of the FFVIII and FFXIII tracks. LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH. Going to travel soon so it will keep me company on the plane with Tales of the Abyss :)
I'm definitely still playing. Slowly but surely. I'll play a game and then put it down for a day or so. I'll probably do a marathon session on the trip to the BBQ.
Been buying the DLC too. The more FFXI tracks, the better!
I'm still into it. Usually just play a couple songs before bed, but it's still a lot of fun.

Just picked up the new FF VI DLC song yesterday. I felt stupid about it, as I know it's overpriced and everything, but I love the music so much that it's worth it.
I've been playing it a little bit at a time since release, and I've found that to be the best way to digest it; much like other posters, short sessions before bed are usually my cup-o-tea.
@Holmes: If you love it, then what's the price matter? As long as its not like $5 a song that is. But even then, if you truly enjoy it and play it.... Sorry was arguing value just now with a buddy who couldn't understand why I'd spend money on a $5 game I enjoy the hell out of.
I still need to get this game, harrumph. There are too many people saying too many good things about it not to.
The demo was fun, might pick it up later :)
YUP.

I also buy 1-2 DLC songs per wave. $1 is not overpriced btw. The game comes with a ton.
It costs about $1 to buy a song on MP3, so I'd say that's pretty reasonable for a game.

I love the game, but I feel like I have a burn out period for each one. I hit it with Dragon's Dogma after two weeks of playing it religiously, and after three or so of constantly having Theatrhythm in my hands (while not working, exercising or cooking) I just have issues coming back.

Maybe part of it is maxing four characters at level 99 and now being ready to start over with a new team I'm less excited about.

In any case, like Dragon's Dogma, even though I've kind of stopped playing it, just thinking about it is exciting enough. Definitely a worthwhile game.
I just wish they remixed all the music. They're all classics, but I get more excited about modern SQEX music. The sound quality is just so much better. All the remixes in Dissidia and Dissidia 012 show how great Theatrhythm's OST could have been.

I don't have a 3DS yet, so I'm hoping that rumor about this game coming to Vita are true because I would pick it up day 1. Glad people are enjoying it.
