Heres a list of the Ten greatest rhythm games according to gametap:

10. Bust a Move: Dance & Rhythm Action (1998, Enix, PSone)
9. Pump It Up Extra (2001, Andamiro, Arcade)
8. Um Jammer Lammy (1999, NaNaOn-Sha, PS one)
7. Elite Beat Agents (2006, iNis, Nintendo DS)
6. Beatmania III: The Final (2002, Konami, Arcade)
5. Pop’n Music 9 (2002, Konami, Arcade)
4. Guitar Hero (2005, Harmonix, PlayStation 2)
3. Beatmania IIDX 6th Style (2001, Konami, Arcade)
2. Dance Dance Revolution 4th Mix Plus (2000, Konami, Arcade)
1. Rock Band (2007, Harmonix, Xbox 360/PlayStation 3)

Is it sad that out of these 10 games I have probably only spent a grand total of 20 min playing any of them, and thats only  DDR and GH.
