Dj Hero The Game Views

• General Goods

Let's face it. If you are like me, an older gamer, you haven't even touched a turntable in a decade, let alone used one to actually mix and mash up tunes. The good news is that DJ Hero (out today for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PS2 and Wii) plays nice, quickly giving players of all ages the potential to rock the dance floor.

After setting up the slick turntable controller, a tutorial courtesy of DJ pioneer Grandmaster Flash takes you through the basics of playing the game in less than 20 minutes. Initially, you learn how to tap notes Guitar Hero-style using the three finger buttons on the turntable platter. Each button corresponds with the streams flowing green, red and blue on-screen.

DJ Hero is a music video game, developed by FreeStyleGames and published by Activision as a rhythm game spin-off of the Guitar Hero franchise. It was released on October 27, 2009 in North America and on October 29, 2009 in Europe. The game is based on turntablism, the act of creating a new musical work from one or more previously-recorded songs using record players and sound effect generators, and features 94 remixes of two different songs from a selection of over 100 different songs across numerous genres.

To score points, the player must press buttons to activate accented beats, adjust their crossfade between the two songs, and scratch the turntable on the game's custom controller in time to marks that scroll on the screen to score points and perform well for the virtual crowd. The game features both a single player Career mode and cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes. The game also features a mode for selected songs for a DJ player to play alongside another player using a Guitar Hero guitar controller. Many DJ and mix artists have contributed to the game both in the game's development, the creation of mixes, and in lending their images for playable avatars in the game; these including DJ Shadow, Z-Trip, DJ AM, Cut Chemist, J.Period, Grandmaster Flash, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Hashim, and Daft Punk.
