[@WziaHere]

It’s a shame that the community for this game is as dead as it is. I don’t think a lot of people understand just how hard of a song this is. Good stuff in finishing off DJ Hero 2 once and for all!

[@IKARUS-RG]

Wzia Thank you so much 😊😊 yes this song is brutal!!

[@diegosakk2934]

Wzia I would probably think the community for this game is dead due to it needing the specific controller to play it

[@WziaHere]

Diego Sakk Guitar Hero, DDR, IIDX, SDVX, and a ton more games are the same way and aren’t nearly as dead as DJ Hero. So I don’t think that can be used as the sole argument.

[@diegosakk2934]

Wzia The exception is that guitar hero and DDR can be played with, lets say, a keyboard, using the arrow keys in DDR or even a joystick on guitar hero like i used to do on PS2, but DJ Hero requires sliders and a spinning disk, and I don't think most keyboards have either of these. Also, DDR and Guitar Hero have games that try to emulate the experience of the original game on pc like clone hero does

[@KlLLERROBOT99]

Diego Sakk well Guitar Hero on PS3 can be played with a regular PS3 controller, which is the hardcore way of playing GH on expert.

[@TheKoreanDrifter]

Jesus, I could almost feel that breath of relief you gave after you got that scratch! Amazing. 0:50 is really iconic, imo whenever I hear this song. Also, 2:27 is so ominous... as it builds towards the dread. So glad to be able to witness this history :)

[@IKARUS-RG]

I had a run where I hit THAT part perfectly and then missed the blue up scratches afterward - that was a little heartbreaking. Didn't discourage me though - I really kept at this

[@TheKoreanDrifter]

...I know that feeling... As a combo vid maker, I've been hit by that train as well...

To me, this is harder than Galvanize. At least in that mix, there's a little bit of breathing room, but in this it's practically nothing but rapid fire actions from beginning to end!

When I didn't have DJ Hero, I thought the game was easy, because I was already used to playing rhythm games. I now I regret it. I tried playing this song on expert, and I did horrible. I barely got 2 stars. It was one of the most embarrassing moments in my life. I have learned my lesson. NEVER subestimate DJ Hero players.

The game is brutal, and there isn't even a practice mode to help (at least there wasn't back then)

[@fidg]

You have officially mastered dj hero in its entirety, you have fc'd every song and mega mix on expert. The only questions left are : how? and What are you going to do with the channel?

[@IKARUS-RG]

How - lots of practice!! I love this game and played it a lot and wanted to get really good at it so I did! The channel - I've got some stuff planned for next year like Spin Rhythm (it's a new game coming out that is sorta like DJ Hero) and there's also a DJ Hero clone in the works somewhere but I'm not sure if that's gaining any ground at the moment. In the meantime I think I'll upload some HD mixes if I have time

[@fidg]

So..... speaking about the HD mixes, I'm guessing it's still a no on Groundhog?

[@IKARUS-RG]

Ya that's totally not happening haha that took a lot of practice that I don't have time for rn

[@fidg]

Got it, but how about "I Remember"

[@IKARUS-RG]

We'll see!

[@KlLLERROBOT99]

I could never nail the final rewind on this song with the mega mix it's in. You had to be really fast on the transition between this song and the next because the second the arrow starts blinking you have 2 or 3 seconds to rewind.

[@IKARUS-RG]

Yeah it's brutal fast, very difficult. But could you imagine how much harder the megamix would be if it had all of this in it???

[@KlLLERROBOT99]

KristophDJHero It's painful because I've put all the songs from the mega mix into a playlist. Not to mention doing a 20 song playlist of the 20 hardest songs back to back. The last time I didn't that it took me 30 mins or more and I had over 3 Million points. 4 words, Pain In The Ass

[@IKARUS-RG]

Tempted to do an Endless Setlist but that's already been done by ya boy MadGamer :D

[@KlLLERROBOT99]

KristophDJHero You could always test yourself by doing a theme mix playlist. Like playing all songs by a single artist. Like all mixes by Testro, DJ Shadow, etc.

[@IKARUS-RG]

Could do, I have a few other ideas coming

[@notedbubbly667]

@@IKARUS-RG I played DJ Hero 2 on the Wii and it counts the whole thing for me

[@IKARUS-RG]

Yes, it counts the whole note ONLY if you move the platter for the duration of the note. Look a little closer at my hands and you'll see I only hit the first part of the long scratch but not the rest. Reason for that is so that I could quickly hit the blue taps that follow.

I put my TV into Game Mode and then spent a while getting the perfect calibration (like 2 hours rofl). The DJ Hero 2 syncing is really awkward and the only way to know for sure if it's correct is to test it in an actual mix. I have a 4K TV so initially it was almost impossible to play
