US retailers price DJ Hero, Band Hero News

PlayStation 2 Xbox 360 PlayStation 3 Wii

US retailers have been busy stamping prices on upcoming music games DJ Hero and Band Hero.

Amazon and GameStop reckon DJ Hero plus turntable peripheral will cost USD 120, which translates to GBP 73. The PS2 version is listed for USD 99 (61 Queenbucks). Old Guitar Hero plus guitar bundles routinely cost 70 quid, so that sounds about right.

A full Band Hero bundle - guitar, drums, microphone - will cost USD 200 (GBP 122), according to the retailers (scouted by GameSpot). Play.com has also had a stab and prices the Band Hero Band Bundle at GBP 149.99 on PS2 and Wii.

PS3 and 360 sets could be more expensive. Full Guitar Hero: World Tour instrument bundles carry an SRP of GBP 179.99, although most retailers knock a chunk off that.

DJ Hero, Band Hero and Guitar Hero 5 all release this autumn on PS2, PS3, Wii and Xbox 360. Whether GH5 will feature new-style peripherals is unknown.

I'm still very tempted by DJ Hero. May be my first game of this type.

DJ Hero's getting tempting.
So there's a Band Hero game now as well as Guitar Hero 5? Why bother?

Well thats DJ Hero pretty much bought, I say pretty much as I'm still waiting on the set list but 70 quid for game + large plastic controller nonsense sounds about right and within my budget for the game.

Still no clue what the difference between Band Hero and Guitar Hero 5 is actually going to be...

"USD 120, which translates to GBP 73""
Oh come on we'll get screwed - 120 dollars will mean closer to 120 pounds and you know it

Might be one of the last releases from this company on the PS3.
