Like I said a few weeks ago, DJ Hero probably will have a nice hefty price tag. I was correct. The $120.00 video game is slated to release October 27th of this year. I probably would pass on this, not because of the price tag, but because of the shape of the turntable control. I’m not super impressed, but I’m sure this will be a great release for gamers everywhere.
Finally a close up shot of the upcoming Activision DJ Hero videogame! I’m really contemplating if I should invest in purchasing the game when available, but the DJ in me tells me this has my name written all over it! I can finally play something against my Guitar Hero pro friends and school them in what I can do.
With DJ Hero set to release very soon, I can’t help but notice all the buzz about this upcoming release. Could this really be the next big hit? In my opinion, of course!
When Guitar Hero came out a while ago, it was a for sure smash in the gaming world. It was almost life like. I mean, if you didn’t have any guitar skills, it didn’t matter because of the ease of the game. I’ve played Guitar Hero here and there, but never really got into it because I never really liked rock or punk music that much. I’ve always been more of a Blues, R&B, and Hip Hop kind of guy.
I’m sure there are many others that felt the way I did. We were simply waiting for a game that would play the music we liked, the music that we enjoyed. So I believe DJ Hero does just that for Hip Hop fans, unless DJ Hero plays nothing but music you get a raves From the reviews that the game has ties to Jay-Z and Eminem, I think nothing less than some good Hip Hop beat machine, turntabling fun. This will be a hit for Hip Hop heads, DJs, Turntablists, and even people who just love those damn video games!
I’ll even probably end up getting one a few months after it releases.
For those familiar with the Beat Mania arcade game at your local arcades, Activision finally put out a DJ game that allows us to play on our home console. DJ Hero will come with a bundle greatest hits from Jay Z and Eminem, limited edition controller, and a DJ stand. I love how the picture above also shows Japan powerhouse streetwear brand “A bathing ape.” Not too sure of pricing, but it cant be far from the Rock Band bundle pricing.
