** With the 7th PASS (FINAL) unlock, it was unlocked for normal play on all stages.
* PARANOIA survivor MAX's DanceDanceRevolution charts are based on PARANOIA survivor's charts, but mirrored and slightly extended.
* PARANOiA survivor MAX's CHALLENGE charts were the first CHALLENGE charts to be rated Level 10 on the old DanceDanceRevolution difficulty scale.
* Although PARANOIA survivor MAX's BPM is displayed as 145-290 in DanceDanceRevolution, it actually slows down to 72.5 BPM at one point of the song.
* PARANOIA survivor MAX is the EXTRA STAGE song in beatmania IIDX 9th style.
** Following its removal from [[AC GOLD|beatmania IIDX 14 GOLD]], PARANOIA survivor MAX is also the first EXTRA STAGE song in beatmania IIDX to be removed from the arcades.
* PARANOIA survivor MAX's beatmania IIDX video features various references to DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME.
** RICE.C, the maker of this video, was a video designer for DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME.
** The man with the hat from the video originated in the DanceDanceRevolution background / jacket from [[The legend of MAX]], and the man in the coat is from the background / jacket of [[TRIP MACHINE survivor]]. (Both songs also debuted in DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME.)
** Video clips of the men in a chase, the purple canister, and an assembly of a DanceDanceRevolution arcade cabinet, appear in several songs' backgrounds in DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME.

This video was carried to the arcade releases in [[AC DDR SuperNOVA|DanceDanceRevolution SuperNOVA]]. This video is played full-screen and eliminates any on-screen dancers prior to [[AC DDR WORLD|DanceDanceRevolution WORLD]].
** As with the beatmania IIDX and DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME videos, this video features the assembly of a DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME machine, but with extended scenes. This video also incorporates scenes with building blocks.

This is the final evolution known as PARANOIA survivor MAX.<br>
However, there's no nostalgia here.<br>
Etched within this version are many memories over the passage of the last five years, a time when the only thing I knew I had to do was to keep running.<br>
Indeed... as long as memories continue to shine within our hearts, then perhaps the word for "past" may not exist. Neither would the word "end".

=== RICE.C ===
Nice to meet you. My name is RICE.C., and I was involved in DDR production.<br>
DDR and 2DX have been linked with each other ever since the [[AC DDR CLUB VER.1|CLUB kit]] days, haven't they? I'm somewhat deeply moved. I've wanted to participate in creating a video for quite some time, so I'm very, very, very thankful & very grateful that I was invited.
 
Since this song is a crossover from EXTREME, I tried to remake the two men in a chase as they appeared in that game. Having said that, I redid almost everything aside from the assembly of the DDR cabinet.<br>
It was my first time creating a full movie for a song, so every day working on it had my heart racing from the excitement. Originally, I planned to create the monochrome world turning into color scene for DDR, but it was cut during development due to space limitations. That's why I happily got revenge, although something didn't turn out well. How shameful.


* This is the Extra Stage song in IIDX 9th style. It is also the first Extra Stage in IIDX to be removed from the arcades.
Just before the deadline, I had a terrible dream of a man wearing sunglasses chasing me around. He kept chasing me even though I hid and hid. It was really scary.
* The video features the assembly of a DDR EXTREME machine.
** It also features the backgrounds of all of the past PARANOiA songs before it.
* The man with the hat from the video originated in the DDR background still from ''The legend of MAX'', and the man in the coat is from the background of ''TRIP MACHINE Survivor''. Both appeared on ''DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME'', along with this song.
**RICE.C, the maker of this video, was a video designer in DDR EXTREME.
* The capitalization for the song is based on the DDR EXTREME version. It has changed to "PARANOIA Survivor MAX" in DDR SuperNOVA onwards.
* This and PARANOIA survivor are the only two songs in the PARANOiA series that have the letter I capitalized.


==Song Production Information==
Everyone, please also try playing DDR if possible!<br>
I'd like to create movies again.<br>
Bye bye.
