" @Snapstacle:  the point of the game is that it is mashups, it' s been billed that way the whole time...so why would they not  "sound like mashups"  lrn2commonsense "
VS Mashups from MTV or the radio are just two songs intertwined, not very interactive. I'd like something that would require a little more interaction than just following along with a turntable like it was an instrument.

It was only a matter of time before they touched the other genres of music, and I'm glad. I might try it out.

Great review and video. Though that bassful backing track was way too loud, i couldn't focus on what Jeff was saying.

Hip hop music and electronic dance music don't get much attention and that's how it SHOULD be. Only real music is ROCK. \m/

I want this more than I've wanted any of the guitar based music games, but still not enough to pay the price of 2 games. Seems much more cost-effective to buy Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age.

I really want this, but it's pretty expensive, and it doesn't seem to offer too much for my money. I think I'll just wait for a sequel to come out. Come on guys, it's Activision. Why wouldn't they milk DJ Hero too?

 The wallet line was great.
 
Also, it's kind of incredible that from 4:07 onward, the highway lines up perfectly with the music in the background.

This game would be much better if you could put in your own songs, it could just detect the beat, put taps on it, and you could scratch and cut on your own.

Man, just let me buy the soundtrack, Activision. You'll make money, and that's all you give a sh*t about anymore, right?

Looking back, paying $30 less than market price for a brand new copy was definitely a good choice. 
 
DJ Hero is just so much fun, I just wish the song pack DLC wasn't so expensive.

I love this game. It really deserves more credit than it gets.
