DJ Hero is new, and therefore scary for many customers. That’s understandable. I’ve played it for the last week on both the Xbox 360 and PS3, and I can say without a doubt that like Guitar Hero, it has an appeal to it that cannot be denied. Gameplay is there, the soundtrack is there, and the pieces fall together well. Read more

DJ Hero includes the option to play with a friend either on or offline as well as double up with a Guitar Hero guitar for a DJ jammer session. At the end of the day DJ Hero is all about you and your gear, riling up the crowd without missing your beats that cuts the music back and turns the room near silent. The music must go on, and the more you sample, the more you will want to keep playing to hear that wild mix of tunes comes next. Read more
- Solid, responsive and accommodating controller, Great tunes that outshine all other music games, Challenging on hard and expert level
- Crossfade too hard to hit dead center, Visuals are just OK, Scoring could be more elaborate than stars

The array of plastic peripherals needed for Guitar Hero or Rock Band is already confusing enough. Music game-makers have wisely avoided tossing new instruments into the fray, despite repeated requests from dedicated fans (hello, keytar!). Read more
- The best soundtrack in a music game yet, You get to play as Daft Punk in their virtual spaceship, At its best, you honestly feel like an amateur DJ
- Coming to grips with the touchy crossfader, Interface does a poor job informing players of mistakes, Tacked on integration with Guitar Hero
