Dancing Stage Max is a video game that was released on November 25, 2005, by Konami to the European PlayStation 2 gaming audience. Dancing Stage Max was modeled after Dance Dance Revolution Extreme 2 in America and Dance Dance Revolution Strike in Japan, containing the new Dance Master Mode and improved EyeToy support. Max featured music by Natasha Bedingfield, Sugababes and Franz Ferdinand as well as new and old Konami Originals. Unlike the previous release, Dancing Stage Fusion, Max was not ported to the arcades.

Gameplay edit
The core game involves the player stepping their feet to correspond with the arrows that appear on the screen and the beat of the song playing. During normal gameplay, arrows scroll upwards from the bottom of the screen and pass over a set of stationary arrows near the top (referred to as the "guide arrows" or "receptors", officially known as the Step Zone). When the scrolling arrows overlap the stationary ones, the player must step on the corresponding arrows on the dance platform, and the player has been given a judgment for their accuracy of every streaked note (From highest to lowest: Marvelous,[a] Perfect, Great, Good, Almost,[b] Miss[c]).
