Speedrunner Beats Cuphead with a DDR Cabinet.
Cuphead’s difficulty and incredible mechanics made it a game that’s beloved by many fans of classic arcade game structure. However, it seems like more and more people are looking into ways of beating it with creative ways. We talked about how fast users have been able to clear Cuphead, but can you take it further and use a DDR Cabinet?
Speedrunner PeekingBoo decided to play Cuphead in a rather different way than usual. By connecting a Dance Dance Revolution cabinet to his PC and playing Cuphead through stomping inputs. After setting the panel of the popular dancing game made by Konami. The runner finished the game in a rather unusual time of 1 hour 24 Minutes and 40 seconds.
We wouldn’t suggest you try this, because playing with a DDR panel makes Cuphead a game about decisions more than anything else. In other words, the runner had to decide very often between either shooting or jumping. But with careful and precise inputs (Not to mention patience), he managed to make a feat many would deem “Impossible”.

“Cuphead has been making the rounds lately because of how players have reacted when faced with a difficult challenge, I aimed to shed some light on the argument to see whether the game lived up to the hype by seeing if I could beat it casually with Dance Pads,” he said in an email to Kotaku. “After doing so in around 6-hours I decided to kick it up a notch.”
The current position that PeekingBoo takes is that of the 16th best time in an “All Bosses” run. I already talked about how Cuphead isn’t a really difficult game despite how challenging it is. However, it seems like more and more people are proving that the game isn’t that difficult either. This is a game that people should definitely try out and continue trying.
Sonic Frontier’s third and final free DLC update, The Final Horizon, is frustrating some players with its difficulty. Some say it’s Sonic’s hardest gameplay ever.
Many players complained about this unexpected difficulty spike in a 12-page GameFaqs forum post called “This DLC is way too hard” (thanks VGC). One of the main complaints about Sonic Frontiers was that it was too easy, and Team Sonic overcorrected, which makes it surprising.
Final Horizon, the last free update, let players play as Tails, Knuckles, and Amy and complete a variety of optional challenges, which is the challenge. Many are breaking down after a vertigo-inducing tower that requires pixel-perfect platforming without checkpoints, apparently inspired by viral Twitch hit Only Up!
Have you tried Sonic Frontiers Final Horizon DLC? Is it really that hard, or has Sonic always been the Dark Souls of mascot platformers?
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s cinematic trailer appeared suddenly as the wait seemed endless. It shows us that together, we can overcome anything.
The scene is surprisingly sad, with flashbacks to each Spider-Man’s tragic past. As property damages mount, Peter and Miles have emotional internal monologues while fighting Venom.
Venom appears to be about to lose when he realizes they can be stronger together before the scene fades to black. We won’t know how this story ends until Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 launches exclusively on PS5 on October 20.
Do you think teamwork makes the dream work? Should you see more of Insomniac’s latest or are you sold?
A new trailer featuring Aleks Le’s fearless protagonist S.E.E.S makes Persona 3 Reload more real. Atlus promises weekly character tributes, so get excited. Our stoic protagonist, who will be playable on PS5 and PS4 when this remade RPG releases on February 2, is introduced well.
We’ve accepted playing without our favorite character and are starting to like Reload. The setting, story, and cast have always been great, and the more we learn about the proposed changes, the more we want to return to Tartarus.
With Persona 3 Reload, where are you? Did you play the game before or is this your first time?
