Poll Question: You Excited About DJ Hero?
Even though we’re not a gaming site, it’s hard not to notice what’s going on at E3 right now. I heard about DJ Hero earlier this year and kinda brushed it off. I mean, me and my girl was on Guitar Hero for a minute but now that plastic guitar just sits in the corner dusty and sad. Why would I want another fake plastic music peripheral cluttering up my crib? But when I saw a video of the game, I finally figured out why I fell out of love with Guitar Hero so fast: I’m a B-Boy not a rocker. This game may not be that bad.
And some details on the songs as well as cosigns from Eminem & Jay-Z (Who even recently did a show in celebration of DJ Hero). So far the tracklist looks pretty good too.
The individual songs themselves have been pulled from a large number of music genres, including grunge, soul, R&B, techno, hip hop, and house. The mixes listed below have been confirmed to be in the game. Additionally, the songs “The Way You Move” by Outkast, “Hip Hop” by Dead Prez, and Tiesto’s “Elements Of Life”, and additional songs from 50 Cent, Justice, N.E.R.D., Beck, Blondie and Billy Squier are confirmed to be in the game. In addition to mixes using individual songs from both Eminem and Jay-Z, including Jay-Z’s “Izzo (H.O.V.A.)” and “Dirt Off Your Shoulder”, there will be a Eminem/Jay-Z mix song. Eminem also stated that he will have additional songs included later in the year as downloadable content for the game. Universal Music Group is providing much of the content for the game.
So, with all that said, are you excited about DJ Hero? Or does it look/sound lame? We’ll know for sure when it’s released on October 27th, but let’s hear your thoughts…

It look pretty cool but it take skills to be a real DJ, cut mix, and etc. You have to touch that record just right, it took me a while to get that when I was growing up messing with turn tables. My skills deminished overtime though since I don’t mess with it like that, but overall that game look cool. Its a good contender.
With the songs you mentioned this may be good and I’m not even a gamer
I like the idea for the game and I think it will be big. I will probably never play because I don’t like that whole button pressin’ stuff. I have an idea for a game that I REALLY want to get done, would blow this out the water.
Looking forward to it like it was a friend n the mail
