While they recorded enough footage (allegedly) to generate dynamic crowd reactions to your performance you can't possibly create an algorithm using live recorded footage - ALONG with recorded band play (for EVERY song!) to maintain visual sync with your gameplay. This has shown itself 20yrs ago with early Sega CD and certain arcade games. At the end of the day they're using movies that play on cue, and I doubt very much these DJ Hero guys figured out what nobody else ever can.
It's either gonna sync 'just well enough', or have jarring hiccups that will break the immersion. Also factor in multiplayer play which would have to remove a recorded band mate, I assume. Multiplayer wasn't even discussed. They could have used the great new perspective with 3D models (and crowd sounds) that will also animate on cue, rather than hoping to god they recorded enough to meet every possible permutation of play and performance.
