WAAAAAAH...Won't be getting this until Christmas Day...WAAAAAAAH.

That's all I have to offer right now, bar that I played it in Gamestation earlier today. The volume was down too low to really get a feel, but the controls seem very nice and responsive. I kept spinning the platter too far back and lost control of the buttons a few times, but the guy in the store said to keep my thumb on the edge of the platter for extra control...so that may help someone!

Otherwise, I want it, I need it, I must have...but I have a long wait. WAAAAAAH.

The trickiest part for me so far has been remembering to centre the crossfader once you activate Euphoria. Once the auto crossfader does its thing I always find it on the wrong side and I miss the beat

For some reason this game only outputs to my amp in pro logic instead of the dolby digital it shows on the box (its from xbox 360 going via optical lead to a yamaha amp) all other games show dolby digital, any ideas?

Shows up as "Dolby D" on my amp.....

Woody26 · 30-10-2009, 7:20 PM

hmm wonder why that is then found it, its in the options for some reason to turn it on/off

I bought the renegade version from HMV and got 6 unlock codes.

DJ Z-Trip's 5rtg Daft Punk's d1g?

DJ Shadow's omxv DJ Jazzy Jeff's n1fz

Grandmaster Flash's ami8 DJ AM's k07u

This gives you character skins,tracks & set lists.

My amp does this most games - Make sure the game isn't running then I have to go into the Audio Settings on the Xbox, change the sound from Dolby Digital to Pro - then back to Digital again. Then you'll have Dolby Digital. (So far, the only game where I've managed to change this on the fly is Rock Band:Beatles.)

See if that helps...

Had a strange problem with it today. During the game it will tell me that people come online etc but if I press the guide button it brings up the menu and tells me I need to sign in. When I goto my gamertag it is greyed out, even if I quit to the dashboard it still wont let me sign in but in the corner of the screen it tells me who is online and messages etc

Only does it during DJ Hero

Andy 1974 · 30-10-2009, 10:14 PM

Inj have you went into the audio section of the game and turned dolby on?

You could be right, but I think the most part the option to flick to Dolby Digital isn't there on my games - I could be unlucky, or blind or both!

Thanks for that Inj. It's working now, very strange how you can turn it on/off in the menu of the game, don't understand why you would want that.

You can do this in most of the games of this genre (RB/RB2 & GH Metallica definitely have the option).

g8tecrasher · 31-10-2009, 11:18 AM

I can rest now i've got the achievement that cancels out the 1g you get early on

chewyx · 31-10-2009, 4:10 PM

this game is awesome only played the tutorial and 1st set so far but its so immersive its great fun although if i hear another one bites the dust one more time i may scream!

Theres alot to do and i keep breaking combo particularly on the scratches. i seem to put an extra one in or go in the wrong direction but im sure ill get better.

sam.i.am · 31-10-2009, 9:21 PM

wow! Loving this game so far!

Couple of questions:

1. Is there a way I can record these mixes into an mp3 format?
2. Anyone else had freezing issues, usually when viewing the mix info?

Andy 1974 · 31-10-2009, 9:53 PM

No.2 - No.

g8tecrasher · 01-11-2009, 8:56 AM

No freezing problems for me

I can't believe how much th difficulty ramps up when you go
from medium to hard. I'm not even going to look at expert just yet!!

Lol, I tried that, I thought my eyes and hands were going to explode!

My brain was fried after a while!

chewyx · 01-11-2009, 10:28 AM

still loving this game.

quick question though. anyone know if its possible to just play the guitar track and have the DJ bit autoplay?

pboreham · 01-11-2009, 11:14 AM

Sent a few FR through for you guys!

skipopo2mus · 01-11-2009, 1:23 PM

Picked this up today, for the bargin price of 30 quid, after trading in borderlands and a few other games and using my mates staff discount at blockbuster

now I've just got to wait until I finish work to get home and play it!

Anyone watched the dashboard video with mr pointy head is it? Pretending to be a german dj, and his blinged out dj hero deck looks pretty sweet!

Edit: turns out the golden things etc would be the renegade edition
