When I first heard of DJ Hero I was skeptical, but as time went on I grew to like the concept more and more. Once Daft Punk came on board that was the last thing I needed to convince me to buy the game.
I've never been really big on the Hero series or Rock Band, having only owned Guitar Hero 3 to compare DJ Hero to. As far as game play goes it the graphics are nice and the music selection is decent (a lot of the same tracks remixed different ways). The lack of a Story Mode/Career mode makes the game harder to get into, but this could easily be added in DJ Hero 2, as well as features we have come to know and love like create a character, etc.
My only real complaint is the controller. After a week of having it some issues began to arise. Some times during gameplay when I push one button on the platter, it will think I pushed all the buttons at once, ruining the multiplier and making getting high scores difficult. Something similar happens when I rewind, also. Luckily I was able to exchange it for a new one.
All in all, I really enjoy DJ Hero. I'm looking forward to the improvements that will come with the inevitable sequel, but until now its a good game. I would just recommend getting a protection plan, so if/when the controller breaks you can get a new one.
What's great about it: A great change of pace compared to other rythym games
What's not so great: Lack of career mode, controller issues
I would recommend this to a friend!

DJ from a different angle
on December 30, 2009
Posted by: Anonymous
from Covington, KY
DJ hero, the second game to emerge that allows users to experience what it may feel like to be some sort of DJ. The only other game to do this was Beatmania: how many people know or remember this game? Very few, because the game attempted to attract a very similar gaming audience to the stylings of music, and DJing but no one bought into it when it released years and years ago.
That is where DJ hero steps up to the plate, its list of music is over 90 tracks mixed with artists from varying times and genres that one may have never equated to mixing them together. The game follows the same Guitar hero gaming style of hitting notes at the bottom of a traveling track. The experience of the game and its music is superb; the controller is responsive and the game offers a lot of replay for the money with its beginning to expert levels of play for each song. Users can unlock new characters, new outfits, turntables, and new places to play at.
There was a lot of doubt behind this game in terms of it just being another attempt by Activision to pull more money from the gaming community, but DJ hero is a solid title in a field that has been dominated by Pop artist singing and the rock jam sessions of Rock Band and Guitar Hero. The game will appeal to a different audience, but who said that was a bad thing?
My only complaint about this game is the difficulty of the game as you get into the harder songs, it gets insanely difficult. Thankfully DJ Hero does not fail you out of the song if you do poorly, but you do have to either trudge through the song and attempt to play it; or skip the mix and move on to the next one.
With that complaint aside, the game is still solid; and definitely holds a lot of appeal. All you have to do is give it a try.
What's great about it: Easy set up, great song list, solid controller
What's not so great: Another plastic item
I would recommend this to a friend!

The game itself is similar to guitar hero in the way as the color-coated buttons come down the screen. Thats about the only similarity. It is not an easy game to get used to, but it has great mixes which create a new experience of gameplay. The controller is new and similar to one turn table wheel, and is very durable. I enjoy this game a lot and the visual effects are stunning.
What's great about it: Game and Controller come ready to play in the box.
What's not so great: Game and Controller hard to get used to.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I played the demos of this at Gamestop and went to my friend's house to play it. (His dad produces it) Anyways, after about 4 songs, it got boring and I wanted to do something else! Don't get me wrong, its a great idea, but it just doesn't have the thrill that the original Guitar Hero had. If you're looking for long time fun and thrill, don't get this game, it isn't worth the price!
What's great about it: Awesome design, Very Cool and Original Idea
What's not so great: Songs are kind of slow and boring!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
