Default Re: DJ Hero

I pre-ordered my copy last night, and it's still set for that 10/27/2009 release. The creators have released many videos demonstrating the game mechanics, and I encourage anyone to watch a few before making assumptions about the difficulty/amusement levels.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yV3PhnfT2LU
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9m4Woo_N2M
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VLqqEJo0_8

The directional scratching in the first video seems daunting. The second video looks like it would require good general skill of the game. The third video is just a track I'm looking forward to playing . I think it will be a solid couple of months after release until someone really dominates the game.

I agree with you, Without Harmonix Guitar hero is crap. I was seriously pissed off that I pretty much wasted $60 on guitar hero 4, the best part of that game was the user-made material because a lot of it was actually fun to play. I am still probably going to get "DJ hero" for the fun of it though... and then I will just get disappointed by another Activision music-based game

This. I figure it'd be fun for the first few songs, and then it'd be the same boring 3 note action over and over.

Just looks a bit fast, which happens to be the dumbest way to make a game hard.

I've used Virtual DJ and I've been up close with a few tables in real life and TBH, yes it does require a certain amount of skill to make it sound good, but it's really not that hard at all, although like...nobody scratches discs anymore.

That is response enough to "I don't think it'll be that hard". Although there's probably a definite (and probably obvious) cap on how hard it could really get.

It looks like it'll be cool for a while at least, but I doubt it would have any solid lasting value. I'd play though.

I beat it. Potentially a challenge at first, I am now going back though the songs to 5 star them all. Every song it pretty much possible besides "The Scratch Perverts - Beats and Pieces". I will NEVER 5 star that.

Played it today, game is easy as hell on Hard, since it was a demo I couldn't try expert. But I can assume the game is easy even on expert.
