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.
Good to see Jim remembering his heritage.
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.
That and taking the whole party/band-experience back down to a single person is a fairly masturbatory design choice anyway.
"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?"
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.
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.
Long live Jim Sterling, you're still my fucking DEEJAAAAA HEEERROO!
Also, was proper british, and I'm luvin' it.
Wow, really? I just assumed that you had turned on No Fail. I see DJ Hero in a whole new light now...
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
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.
Unless I sucked THAT bad at I Wanna Be Your Man on drums The Beatles: Rock Band does having the ability to fail.
DJ FUC-KNUKKLE got maddd skizzillzz yo!
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.
