Moonman Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 has anyone played this yet? What do you think of it? I dont know anyone who has it so haven't played it yet, but from youtube vids it looks like a lot of fun! Quote
Number2Fan Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 I have played it and it IS alot of fun. Simon Ross will agree. It is absolutely nothing like doing your own mixing. It is lots of very well made mash-ups and to keep them sounding like well made mash ups you need to press the right coloured buttons whilst holding a movable deck plate, in the other hand you have a crossfader, slightly around that is a Euphoria switch for gaining extra points after a good run on the buttons. Some symbols mean you need to scratch your record, and so you do that, some mean you need to cross fade, one switch is also for adding samples. You gain more mixes by being good at the first ones. Some are quite slow, and a bit ghetto, but others 'like the Eric Prydz vs tears for fears' is brilliant. This would make an excellent Christmas present IMO for DJers and non-DJers... if you already have a guitar from Guitar hero you can do two player with the 2nd player on guitar. AND TODAY I SAW THIS IN GAME...........................AND I WANT IT!!! Forgot to say you can do rewinds too, which can be 360 degree backspins where you have to catch the plate again whilst 'in the mix' so to speak!! With stand and flight case!!! I also have a baseball cap with it on, which is sad, but I love it anyway!!! I get paid to play this game!! Quote
simonross46 Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 It's a fantastic game, but I find it extremely easy to play. Heres my efforts one of my favourite tracks the game features: ... and this is a video of the song I played (but it's someone else doing it!!!) Quote
Number2Fan Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 LOLOL Simon what shop were you in when you got that score and took a photo lolol Quote
simonross46 Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Shop!?!?! My flatmates have it so I scrounge off them ;P Quote
emy Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 WHAT IS THE POINT???? GO AND BUY YOUR KID SOME DECKS NOYT GIVE THEM A SCREEN TO GOGGLE AT errr i am angry at this Quote
Moonman Posted November 23, 2009 Author Posted November 23, 2009 WHAT IS THE POINT???? GO AND BUY YOUR KID SOME DECKS NOYT GIVE THEM A SCREEN TO GOGGLE AT errr i am angry at this The point is, mates round, drink flowing freely, having a go on this then off out with mates. Its a laugh. Much like Guitar hero. We all know it's not really much like proper DJing, but its a game. Ohh and another point, this might just get "your kid" into DJing. Surely thats no bad thing is it? I know i'd rather kids being introduced to djing through games like this and listening to music like this, rather than x-factor billox. So, i put to you, purpose served. Quote
Number2Fan Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 What you on about emy, who's kid? this might just get "your kid" into DJing. I have to say, a couple of my colleagues whom have had a go have had a taster of the DJing lark now, and in fact I said to my best work friend he could come and have a go on my decks at home if he wanted. He was like " oh is that what you done that CD on then? " now he's got a taste for scratch mixing, lol he was hardly gonna just go out and buy 1210's and a mixer and a record collection just to have a go at it. Now for 85 quid he can have a play at it. BTW I played Band hero all this weekend, and same again, the whole family might not start a band, and might not want to become DJ's but they can all have a good laugh TOGETHER playing at it. Quote

My flatmate just got the drum kit for Guitar Hero, I'm gonna test it tomorrow cos it looked well hard to do when I watched others do it today!!! Quote
Number2Fan Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 My flatmate just got the drum kit for Guitar Hero, I'm gonna test it tomorrow cos it looked well hard to do when I watched others do it today!!! God no.....drums are easy. Get on the mic!! Quote
JasonB Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 Drums are easy, holding notes on the mic for 30 seconds is easy also I'll never get ago on dj hero as I dont know anyone who'll actually buy it or is interested in it. I'm not really bothered mind Quote

simonross46 Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 We got a microphone too but I like singing as I drum instead haha. I love the drumming but I dont hit the red pad hard enough for it to realise!!! Quote
Number2Fan Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Try it standing up. I did mention it would be good to have the mic on a stand! :thumbsup: Quote
emy Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Ok I will go crawl back in my hole, How about going on a night out and having a good mix on some real decks first? I still wouldn't buy this game, but then I like guitar hero so I am a hypocrite Quote
Number2Fan Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 I still wouldn't buy this game, but then I like guitar hero so I am a hypocrite Yup!! Quote
simonross46 Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 I'm not gonna buy this game until it's closer to the £40 region. At the moment I only want it on PS2, but to pay close to £100 on a fake turntable when I've just got real ones for £600 makes me tickle my chin Quote
Number2Fan Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 And I'm not gonna buy it either. But I would, on the PS3. I'd prob not get the Wii version as I think it should be cheaper, due to it's design. Toys R Us is cheapest btw Moonman atm! :mrgreen: Quote
emy Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 I'm getting the sega mega drive out at Christmas yeahhhhh good old times Quote
