I enjoyed the first game, but the music wasn't quite my taste.

This list however suggests that may well be improved this time round, wiith all the artists madgerald already mentioned plus Basement Jaxx, Chemical Brothers & Crystal Method.

Hmmm, this is not looking as eye popping as the first game, which I think overall has great tracks, let down by the overuse of a few of them (that sodding Gwen Stefani track, oh it's shit.)

That looks very similar to the previous games with only a few good additions (Prodigy and Orbital). Going to have to see the actual tracklisting before I'm convinced.

+1

This is looking fan-bloody-tastic though. Will be great for parties. Can get my one mate that sings on the microphone too.

That list is ridiculous, lets hope the selection of songs complements it.

I also enjoyed the first game.

If DJ Hero is suppose to be a music game, then why is Lady Gaga on the list?
