** Only [[jam jam reggae]] is playable by default in beatmania's FREE mode, while only [[5.1.1.]] is available in beatmania IIDX's.

* Near all of the overlays have been removed from beatmania IIDX videos, with the sole exception being [[PARANOiA MAX~DIRTY MIX~|PARANOIA MAX~DIRTY MIX~]].

* [[beatmania (2006) credits]]


* The judgement system has changed; there is now a judgement called "Perfect", presumably replacing Just Great. (Source: [http://media.ps2.ign.com/media/748/748592/img_2985964.html IGN Screenshot])
= Song List =
* Difficulties are listed as "Beginner", "Normal", and "Hyper".  Another may or may not exist.
=== beatmania (5KEYS) ===
* Difficulties are now on a 1-10 scale, using stars. There may or may not be "flashing 10"/10+ rated songs.
{{bm Songlist Header3|
* Hard has apparently been renamed to "Challenge", or "CHA" for short.
{{bm Song3|REGGAE|[[jam jam reggae]]|[[Reo Nagumo|jam master'73]]|90|1|1}}
* 5-key mode is known as "beatmania" mode, 7-key mode is known as "beatmania IIDX" mode. Konami no longer appears to be removing references to IIDX from videos, etc.
{{bm Song3|WARP HOUSE|[[OVERBLAST!!]]|[[Toshiyuki Kakuta|L.E.D.]]|147|1|1}}
* In 5-key mode, Free Zones have returned. Free Zones are areas in older songs where you can pretty much scratch as much or as little as you want. However, you could only get a Good - it was not possible to get a Great on a Free Zone. It is not known whether this problem has been corrected in this version.

= Expert Mode Courses =
beatmania courses have only one difficulty, while beatmania IIDX courses have three difficulties: Light/Standard/Heavy. Unlike the rest of the game, this keeps track of EX scores. Courses beginning with IIDX are the IIDX mode Internet Ranking courses, and courses beginning with beatmania are the 5key mode Internet Ranking courses. Internet ranking is no longer available.
