SynopsisAs a DJ, you've got unique power in your control. You're the one who spins the tunes, and who blends the mixes that keep the party going or kick the energy up a notch or two. With your fine command of the arts of scratching, blending, cross-sampling and fading, you create a unique sound that makes you more than just a DJ to this high-energy crowd ~ you're the hero of the party.From the makers of Guitar Hero, DJ Hero lets you experience the excitement of being a DJ. More than 80 never-before-released mixes blend more than 100 songs spanning genres like hip-hop, R&B, pop, rock and electronica. Use the new authentic turntable controller to mix, sample and produce various scratch patterns, and go head-to-head in a DJ vs. DJ competitive mode to determine ultimate DJ supremacy. You can even pair the turntable controller with a Guitar Hero guitar controller to perform DJ-guitar exclusive mixes, or emcee over any track using a Guitar Hero microphone. Mix and scratch your way to fame as you perform in hip venues around the world, firing up the party with your irresistible rhythms, your enviable timing and your incredible moves.

A good start, but room for improvement

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!

Can any xbox game be played in an xbox arcade console or are some games meant for xbox live in other consoles?

I don't think there are any Xbox games that have ever been made for 100% online play, with no offline play.

If there are, they are so few I wouldn't worry about it.
