Oh god, this interview sounded so fake. "Go buy a turntable because you definitely might have a career" really??

@KnifeySpoony:  yeah it does sound rediculious but its more realistic then Guitar Hero teaching people to play guitar.  I mean if the game really "teaches you real dj techniques" like they keep saying, then its the same as the drum trainer for Rock Band 2. Because that Drum Trainer is actually pretty good at teaching you rhythm and doing proper fills.

@Phished0ne: Sure, but if anything the controller in DJ Hero is more convoluted than an actual turntable, rather than the rock band drums which are just a dumbed down version.

@KnifeySpoony: No, it's actually much simpler than a real mixing setup. I don't understand why people keep saying this

@Kyle: I'm not talking about a DJ mixing set up, but rather just a single turntable, which is what this controller is.

I don`t really care about this game... I`ll just try to get my hands on the music in in because some of the mixes are nice... I also hate the logo... the font used was ok for rock, but this? They should`ve used something more hip-hop`ish...

Anyway, I take back everything negative I said about this game, because it just got a whole lot cooler.

I lol'd at him saying that being a character in a game is the biggest thing in his career. I guess winning the first rap Grammy ever, acting on one of the most widely known sitcoms on TV, and making a 3x platinum record is nothing in comparison.

If I am any good at DJ hero I am going to immediately run out and buy a expensive turntable because Jazzy Jeff said so.

Great interview. He sounded very sincere about what he said unlike most other similar trailers.

If you get really good at GTA, run to the street corner and buy some drugs, because you definitely may have a career.

Although Jazz does nothing for me, the game looks... Interesting. It's all down to the tracks for me. If it's just hip hop and rap it's a no-sell.

I have sworn off Activision-produced rhythm games. This game really needs to stop making me interested in it.

It's the "if you get good at this game, you should do it for real" pitch all over again.  Huzzah.

They never show somebody using the peripheral.  I'm guessing something is terribly lame about it.
