Yeeeeeeah boy! This week's edition of TVSWID features a special guest star. His name is Grand Master FUC-KNUKKLE and he's Manchester's hottest mixy-scratchy-man on the club circuit. He'll be showing off his pimpin' moves in this video, which is all about DJ Hero, aka the unnecessary piss-take of the music game world.

I think this video turned out pretty damn well, so do please make sure to watch it if you've been a fan of the other ones. I like the episodes that have characters in them. I might try to do more in future. Or I might NOT! Who knows? It's a total effing mystery.

Wow, sorry Jim but that was worse than the Bayonetta video

JOURNALISM

bluexy

You're so good at video games.

naia-the-gamer

Bravo Jim. Bravo.

Dan CiTi

Dee Jay Hero

Palidi

Well...at least you didn't sound like you were suffering as much as in the Bayonetta video. Actually, that last bit by DJ FUC-KNUKKLE wash pretty funny. He seems familiar, but I cant put my finger on it...XP

Jordan Devore

The part where you were on the ground hugging and licking the controller broke me.

Naim Master

No Jim, just, no. You really should stick to writing, nothing against fat people doing silly things somehow related to sex and recording then and posting it on the internet, but yours is just way over the top, it stops being No More Heroes and turns into Madworld... So, yeah...

Wheatspin

@ Naim Master: You clearly don't appreciated humor. Of any kind.

Kpax

I think you overdid playing the game badly this time, or maybe the footage of the game while you move the sliders back and forth as fast as you could just went on for too long. Other than that, I loved when you played the deck with your tongue, and the last segment of DJ Fuc-Knukkle is absolutely superb. :D

Jim Sterling

"No Jim, just, no. You really should stick to writing, nothing against fat people doing silly things somehow related to sex and recording then and posting it on the internet, but yours is just way over the top, it stops being No More Heroes and turns into Madworld... So, yeah..."

Be thankful I cut one of the scenes I shot. You would not have liked the footage of me actively performing sex with the turntable. Not at all.

Tarvu

But you are uploading that scene eventually, right Jim?

Dylan Alford

"LIKE GUITAR HERO... ONLY ROUNDAH!"

Jim Sterling

Kpax: Perhaps, but I think it was interesting to note that I did not get fail the song by playing it that way. In fact, and the video doesn't show this, I was able to complete the entire song on Normal difficulty simply by smashing the buttons and tossing the slider around.

grassr00ts

Also Chavs!

Tarvu

Chavs? The normal distribution for english people has shifted and that's the standard now. Now the Chavs have bodies made of gold and live in abandoned Tesco stores.

Good to see Jim remembering his heritage.

Rammstein

I really dug this one, good stuff but couldn't you deliver the pun with more enthusiasm? The pun is one of my favorite parts of these vids. D:

Also, not to be an American prick, but I just loved the whole way you spoke, it being so foreign to me, a Yankee wankah, I pretty much LOL'd throughout the whole video.

Volcanon

Thank you Jim.

peachboy

yr no devvo, but that was a worthy effort.

XanderSan

Incidentally, does this mean you're better at DJ Hero the more experienced you are at flicking your bean? It just seems like the actions somewhat mimic each other.

That and taking the whole party/band-experience back down to a single person is a fairly masturbatory design choice anyway.

Wintersocks

Also, I respectfully disagree with your opinions on disk jockeying.

nummy6

Being both a DJ and a big fan of the game all I have to say is fuck you.

RAB

fetusmilk

haha nice! with the way you could slide the nobs around and not fail it looks like my cats could play this.

sheppy

I love the video, really do, despite my love for Dj Hero, but this simply must be addressed.

"Kpax: Perhaps, but I think it was interesting to note that I did not get fail the song by playing it that way. In fact, and the video doesn't show this, I was able to complete the entire song on Normal difficulty simply by smashing the buttons and tossing the slider around."

Dj Hero, like Beatmania, does not have a health bar. Thus you never get kicked out of a song or a mix. So with a no fail scenario, does it make DJ Hero a "casuwell gahme?"

Holyetheline

I love your humor with these. Keep it up!

fangurl667

Oh Jim My OCD butt was distracted by your lack of a vacuum cleaner, cable ties for that tangle of cords and the fact you can't make your freaking bed. Other than that I was slightly amused. Try to do better and clean the house next time.

kwaselow

Jim: The reason you didn't fail is because DJ Hero does not have failing in it.

Also, I actually know some people who want to get this game... and none of them actually appreciate video games. I walked into Best Buy yesterday, saw all the Band Hero and DJ Hero boxes and just thought "you're flooding the market." Activision needs to stop flooding the market and making games that are actually unique, but it will never happen because they print money. Music games are the video game world's equivalent of the Land Before Time sequels.

RichardBlaine

Funny stuff. I especially liked your commentary on DJ's in general. I do miss the excessive terrible grammar of the Demon Souls video though. "When I first heard about Demon's Souls, it was because someone was talking to me about Demon's Souls." Priceless.

ErigBurger

I liked ur Ali G impresion, but I dont think u got th outfit right!?!?

Trebz

"Right after I get a cup of tea."

Please be my mom, Jim.

ace of knaves

SOLD.

Carl Sagan

I think you should stick to voice over video because those parts of this show always turn out well.

But the live action footage of you fooling around doesn't really work, and it's probably just because it's not polished enough. If you could work out the issues with the noticeable drop in sound quality, and maybe have a few different camera angles, I think you'd get a better reaction.

Filt

I have to say, I loved seeing you in front of the camera again Jim. Also, I find it amusing that the animated gif of you clapping will forever be posted on all of your articles.

Long live Jim Sterling, you're still my fucking DEEJAAAAA HEEERROO!

MkShiranui

I'm with Sagan on this. In fact, I actually think you're funniest when you're not saying or doing much of anything, such as when you where trying to use the UMDs with the PSPgo (possibly your best episode). No offense, but those portions do make me laugh.

Jon B

I think the moment I started laughing was the moment where you pronounced DJ FUC-KNUCKLE. And from then on I continued to laugh like fuck.

Also, was proper british, and I'm luvin' it.

Kpax

Jim Sterling: "Perhaps, but I think it was interesting to note that I did not get fail the song by playing it that way. In fact, and the video doesn't show this, I was able to complete the entire song on Normal difficulty simply by smashing the buttons and tossing the slider around."

Wow, really? I just assumed that you had turned on No Fail. I see DJ Hero in a whole new light now...

Did I hear the phrase "flick her beaver"?

BrandonUndead

Grand Master FUC-KNUKKLE for presidente!

PenKaizen

You got the Manchester accent down there bruv.

Magnalon

@Kpax
DJ Hero is in fact a "no fail" game, much like Rock Band: Beatles' new mechanic.

You're graded on how WELL you do, so yes, Jim did pass the song by doing nothing :D

Kraid

I will have one thing to add to this fantastic review:

BRAP BRAP BRAP SON!

Johnny Justice

This is the first one I've watched in a while. I still don't really like it, but Grand Master FUC-KNUKKLE seems to be spinning it (with the wheels of steel) in the right direction.

I think what doesn't work for me is the narrator/reviewer character. The character talks like an idiot but Jim, in your regular voice you just don't sound like an idiot. Maybe you should try experimenting with different voices.

Topher Cantler

That thing you do where you get all pissy and out of breath from trying to squeeze out one long, angry sentence is the best part of these. Please keep doing that.

Xzyliac

Yeah Lego Rock Band, GH5's Party Play (which I just consider to be the whole game), and DJ Hero all use a new "no fail" thing. I dunno if I appreciate it or not but it's definitely becoming common.

Unless I sucked THAT bad at I Wanna Be Your Man on drums The Beatles: Rock Band does having the ability to fail.

TripleZer0

Well that one was certainly less creepy than the Citizen Kane one.

DJ FUC-KNUKKLE got maddd skizzillzz yo!

Bioautographical

@nummy6

So you deny that DJ'ing requires no original effort whatsoever? I mean, yeah, I can see where it's clever to find similar key signatures in a song and combine them (like in mash-ups). But I don't see how anyone can build a "culture" around basically taking other actual artists' music and fucking with it.

There was a comedian once, can't remember his name, who summed it up pretty nicely: It used to be that the guy who bumped into the turntable and scratched the record at a party was an asshole.

Generic Purple Turtle

Was the thing about the girl with cervical caner true :D? "and a twiddly nob that I don't know what it does"

Kryptinite

I love Jim.

I just wanted to make that public.
