DJ Hero Video Game Song List Released

At last, a game for the kids who weren't good in music class, and weren't even good at Guitar Hero, but who know music better than anyone.

Activision has finally dropped the massive set list for the release of DJ Hero, which comes out on Oct. 27.

The game features 93 exclusive mixes by the likes of DJ Shadow, Cut Chemist and the late DJ AM, who slice up songs by the likes of Jay-Z, Daft Punk, Public Enemy, Beastie Boys and The Killers.

DJ Hero looks to expand on the technology used in games such as Guitar Hero and Rock Band. It will use a turntable controller to immerse players into DJ culture as they learn to master DJ techniques including scratching, crossfading and sampling.

Sick stuff, my dad is going to buy it to test it out.

Since he's a real DJ, he wants to see how the video game will pan out

I can't wait for this man, this is a game I will definitely own. I had the GH's and while they were fun the novelty wore off quickly .... this game though is something that interest's me!!

[rchurchward]

So how exactly does this work? I mean, the one song vs. the other. Excuse me for being naive but I don't know anything about this stuff.

[Stlouisrams1600]

I never even heard of this. Haha

[OnePimpTiger]

So how exactly does this work? I mean, the one song vs. the other. Excuse me for being naive but I don't know anything about this stuff.

It's when they mix two songs together...usually it's part of one song plays, then the DJ mixes it to flow into part of the other song and back and forth...make the two songs flow into each other seamlessly.

Sounds like fun

I might have to check it out. My former roommate has his own DJ/promotion crew, so they're hyped up about it too, wanted to see how it compares as well.
