In case that news wasn't exciting enough for you, we've got six (!!) more gameplay videos of the game, five of which can be found after the break. That brings our grand total of gameplay videos of DJ Hero in the month of August to 13. Clearly, the marketing push leading up to October's tentative release date has begun in earnest. Maybe we can have a solid, official release date now?

Dj Craze better be in this game, otherwise it's a fraud!

There is a DJ where I live who calls himself DJ Boba Fett. He is a total douche who wears a Boba Fett helmet when he DJs.

The only reason I'm buying this game is due to the fact that it has Justice in it. I love them more than I hate Activision, and because my fave song by them, Genesis is in it, I have reason enough to.
Sure, I'm a hypocrite, and I understand that. Downvote button for hypocrisy is ^^^^

Great, one more useless plastic accessory to fill the closets of America.
If it wasn't for Rock Band, I could say
Plastic Crap you dont need, but will buy anyway! Only from Activision! (TM)

I concur. It is obnoxious, and I hope your advertisers read this to know that I will NEVER consider any product in these tacked-on ads on general principle.
The inability to pause the things...especially on a page with a BUNCH of videos is BAD FORM Joystiq.
Bad, bad, bad.

Green and blue are the records they are mashing up, and the red one on the center are loops and effects, though green and blue can also have some loops sometimes as far as i can tell.
Yo press the record buttons and scratch up or down the record as the charts indicate if you are on expert (on lower difficulties apparently you can just scratch any direction you like) and you use the fader to indicate wich record is going to be heard... if it's neutral, both records sound, if it's on a side or the other you have to move the fader that way to make only one record sound.
The euforia button is just like star power and if you get a lot of notes in a row you can rewind part of the music by rotating the disk 360 degrees.
On some songs you can have multiplayer using the guitar, and apparently you can also use the microhpone to sing along, but doesn't seem to have any effect on the gameplay besides letting you do it.
I think it seems a bit difficult, but i'll have to play it before i can say for sure.

Theres a little switch on the side that has three settings, to the left, the middle and the right. You switch it to the side that the lines go. But this game is the reason we play Rock Band and Guitar Hero, it's good music. This game will fail just like DDR did. Mark my words.

This game was a sure buy from me until I saw these videos. All the previous posts and released song clips were great. These latest clips sound like garbage, and I'm pretty sure all of them had a siren in there at one point.

Yoda's great, seen him numerous times but thought Activision might be a little mainstream for the likes of him appearing in a game.
Same with Scratch Perverts. They never fail to impress and highly looking forward to seeing them at Bestival. Their last Fabric gig was a-m-a-z-i-n-g
Good to see there's some decent stuff in this game.
