However, I will mostly be reviewing the VR portion of this game where you get to create your own concert and watch it in VR!!!
   Ok, so in the main game you play as normal and can unlock tons of costumes and accessories for the various characters (Or just buy the DLC key to unlock everything right away to get to the real unique and cool part of this game, namely the concert editor.
   The concerts are in full VR and the graphics are amazing. You can choose from 32 stages and 32 songs and order the songs any way you want. You can choose the outfit that Miku wears or have any of the secondary characters perform the song instead. There are, I think, around 300 or so costumes total between the characters, not to mention all the different accessories to add more variety.
   The song selection is pretty good and covers several genres and many fan favorites are included. The choreography is quite simply perfect. I am not sure if the dances were motion captured, but they look that good. It was either motion captured dances or the animator was an animation genius.
   You can even edit the timeline of each song to add various special effects during the song which vary from stage to stage.
   While viewing your custom concert, you can move to change your perspective. Basically its teleport movement on a grid so you can get the perfect view of the performer from different angles.
   This game is perfect if you just like to relax and watch a nice concert that you made yourself.
   With 32 stages and 32 songs which can be played on any stage and 300 outfits, there is a lot of variety here for you to design your perfect Hatsune Miku concert.
   
   A must buy for Hatsune Miku fans with the VR headset for sure and even if you never heard of her, there is a lot of enjoyment to be had here.
   
   Of course, you can play without VR, but then most of the magic disappears as its just not the same watching your custom concerts on the flat screen.
   
   Oh, and I guess rhythm game fans might also like this as there is an actual game here as well that is very well done.… Expand

I also love the songs in this games it's more futuristic and energetic that it will have you to have chills. Another example is the main events when you complete 5 songs in a cloud you will have main event when you complete the 5 songs and I love how they mixed old and new songs from previous diva games you will need to play past diva games to appreciate and notice these songs. Also Meiko V3 is amazing.… Expand

Makes me feel like I'm actually doing something significant. The outfits this time around are earned in these quests and actually boost your stats during songs so it makes you want to use them. A lot of new songs that I haven't heard before is pretty great. You can hold festivals which plays multiple songs it's a lot of fun. The game keeps you busy and involved and is very fun. I have 0 complaints.… Expand

   F: A button-pressing rhythm game with a lot of character. Is easy to get into and incredibly difficult to master. Fun costume collecting.
   
   F 2nd: I didn't like it as much as the first one. Difficulty increased, which made it much harder on my old-man carpel-tunnel hands. I didn't like the songs as much, but that might be because I didn't play it as much. Good thing the costumes automatically unlocked from the first game.
   
   Things I like about Project Diva X are:
   1. It's technically better than the previous two games. It runs at a higher framerate, the character models are a bit better, the sound quality is better, and the easy/normal mode button sequences more closely match the songs.
   2. It's a tiny bit easier than Project Diva F on easy mode, so this one is even easier to get in to.
   3. The songs are good. I like them better than the songs in F 2nd. And they have an overall production quality increase over the songs in the prior games.
   4. The song melodies are awesome.
   5. Several of the new songs are awesome (read the lyrics if you can).
   6. Unlocking outfits is more random and happens during Chance Time during each song. For the most part, unlocking them all is easy.
   7. Poking characters on the head is fun, though there's a limited amount of enjoyment to get from this.
   
   Things I didn't like so much were:
   1. Some items and costumes are locked behind Hard and Extreme difficulty levels. I can barely make it through some Hard mode songs, but Extreme is impossible for me. Thankfully there's only a few costumes that require you to get through an Extreme song.
   2. While the songs are good, there's not many of them and most of them are for Miku. The other characters have only one song each. If you were expecting some of that awesome Rin/Len back-and-forth like there was in F, you won't find that here (except in one of the melodies).
   3. if these characters use synthesized voices, why can't they have the character I pick sing the song instead of Miku? It's just silly to go through a song with a guy making a girl's voice.
   4. There's a story mode. It's not horrible, but it really paints the Diva characters as being airheads. And why do they start flapping like they're birds when I give them a gift that they like?
   5. There's only concerts. Every song is done on a stage with your character dancing and singing. There's no music-video style songs like there were in the previous games.
   6. There's no interaction between the characters and the button targets like there was (although rarely) in previous games.
   7. Costume unlocking is somewhat random, and some costumes come from only certain songs, so you might spend a lot of time in a song you don't like trying to unlock one.
   8. The custom concert-creator is much more limited than it was in previous games.
   9. There's still under-skirt censorship in certain modes. You can see what's under them if you get the angle right, and it's not normally pretty. Their rear-ends could have used more polygons and better textures. Maybe they're really censored because they're ashamed at how bad they look.
   
   The game has its ending credits after about 5-10 hours of gameplay, after you complete all songs and get enough points. You can then continue after that to get more points that unlock more challenges (for the same songs) and new costumes.
   
   I've spent about 40 hours in the game so far and have got about 95% of everything I want to get. I spent about 75% of my time on easy mode, 20% on normal, and the other 5% attempting hard/extreme. I have one final set of challenges to unlock, which will likely require some hard/extreme gameplay to complete, so I'll set the game aside for now.
   
   Although the list of things I didn't like were long, I like the game a lot. I'd say this is a must-have for the casual miku fan.… Expand

Songs are good, Gameplay is good, Miku looks great and her dance looks funny + beautiful depending on songs. There are tons of nice costumes to be discovered. This game is good for people who want to relief stress by playing some soft music game and enjoy watching anime character dancing.
   
   However, major letdown is that there are very few songs in the game (25-30 maybe). It has big negative impact on the score because songs are the game's meat.and with this very few songs, the game is not worth the price as it is. I would suggest you buy the game on 50%-70% discount. Or wait for the Future Tone, which will be release next year. That one should have more than 200 songs.… Expand
