Uh oh. Activision's releasing a new peripheral game. Bend over everyone.

And with a line up of songs no self respecting DJ would be caught dead throwing into their "mix".

You could buy an actual pair of real proper DJ decks for less than that and do it for real (and with better music). Or buy professional DJ mixing software and do it with mp3s for less than half that. Just fuck off Activision, and take your obviously shit, over priced shit with you.

Evidently their definintion of tremendous is very differnt to my own.

True, you can probably get something like Traktor or Ableton for the cash, or splash out on a nice controller etc. Thing about DJ Hero is that its not an authentic mixing simulator, its a rhythm game for fun purposes. The same as Guitar Hero isn’t some sort of viable alternative to playing a real guitar.

I think you're doing us a disservice there. Most people on this site probably won't buy it because we're elitist snobs (:D), but I'm sure the general public will lap it up in its millions. |

"i find my music, the music doesnt find me. i.e. taking your pick of what plays on uk radio. i still buy vinyl."
So what sorts of music do you listen to besides dance? |

not much, but i like all spectrums of dance.
ambient, trance, techno, house, minimal. used to be into hard house. generally hate rock, but outside of dance i respect, and enjoy the beatles and the led. also some rage against the machine as well. EDM is just better, blissfull, intricate, mesmerizing. love the patterns. trance is called that because it does get you in that state - its very close the the african bongo music where they'd smack out some mad pattern and they'd all get 'high'. which reminds my i like tribal dance as well.

"The only stuff that truly sucks is bandwagon jumping clinically demographically marketed stuff."
Unfortunately, if we have even heard of a band, there has probably been a bit of that taking place. If the band itself is genuine and makes good market, I kind of don't much mind how they are marketed. I would rather than heard of them than not. |

@svd_grasshopper
Thought as much. At least you have a few decent influences under your belt :) |

I'm buying it, deal with it. It's my money, it will look great next to my Steel Battalion controller.

1210s ;) but the price of vinyl is extortionate, it's kind of made me sideline that hobby for now. I live just outside of Glasgow, so 23rd precinct and that place down jamaica street (rubadub records?) are the only two places to go.
