Beatmania IIDX 8th Style is the eighth game in the Beatmania IIDX series of music video games. It was released in arcades by Konami in 2002. A PlayStation 2 version was released in 2004.
Gameplay[]
Beatmania IIDX tasks the player with performing songs through a controller consisting of seven key buttons and a scratchable turntable. Hitting the notes with strong timing increases the score and groove gauge bar, allowing the player to finish the stage. Failing to do so depletes the gauge until it is empty, abruptly ending the song.
