 It looks like a lot of fun, therefore I must never try it. I already own too many plastic instruments, and I don't want to risk liking this game as much as I think I will....

Ugh! What an atrocity committed to a great classic song.
This is supposed to be music?

I think I'm officially done with the music game genre at this point.  I have more than enough plastic shit with my standard controllers everywhere

It's like that scene in Phoenix Nights where everyone's trying to dance to the beat of the record and Ray Von keeps scratching it and it pisses everyone off. Except this isn't supposed to be funny.


The game might redeem itself if there's a level with Grandmaster Flash mixing in his kitchen though!

That was one "wicked sick" mash up.
Although I am still incredibly skeptical as to whether dj hero will really work as well as regular old guitar hero did in the past.

Is there any way to just play Cars on its own, with no scratching? xD Not the best songs to mix together. I still can't believe the controller is over 100 dollars o_O

This is looking like a must-have for me. Being able to make something by pulling from disparate sources is one of the essences of DJ/hip-hop culture, and it looks like that's something this game is trying to get across. The fact that it can send sanctimonious rockers into a mad, blind rage makes me want this game even more.

Never jumped on the GH, RB band wagon, but DJ Hero seems interesting.

Every time I see a video of this game I scoff at the song choices, and then proceed to be blown away when I actually watch it.

Hell yeah, this looks fun!  DJ's are constantly pumping out mixes too, maybe they'll get some more notoriety out of doing this. I'm pretty sure I'm going to get this when it comes out. It looks promising, in my opinion.

Just like in real life, the "live venue" MC is annoying as hell. More music, less talking.

This so amazingly isn't the rhythm game for me. I've been surprised by how many people seem really into this stuff when to me it just sounds like perfectly good songs being ruined.
