  1. With its numerous additions and improvements supported by an amazing list of remixes, DJ Hero 2 isn't only an automatic buy for those who loved the first one but also a definitive must have music title for all music genre fans.

    DJ Hero 2 may not make major steps forward, but the additions, refinements and minor tweaks that FreeStyle Games have made really build on the solid foundations that the first game laid down to make DJ Hero 2 an even better experience then before and in my opinion, currently the best music game around.
  3. DJ Hero was my favorite music game of 2009, and I'm happy to report this sequel bests its predecessor in nearly every way.

    The people at Freestyle Games definetly gave a new spin to the DJ Hero gameplay. The Freestyle sections are very cool and the new option to sing or rap is great if you don't want to spin the records. A guaranteed party hit!

  1. I do not understand why this game is so underrated at Wii. Visuals are outstanding, even for Wii (look at DJs, they have the same amount of details like 360/PS3) but in my opinion, it is the best game from "Hero" series on Wii. Expand
  2. DJ HERO 2 is a huge improvement from the first DJ HERO. The only thing I would suggest is to put more songs on and allow importing from the first game. Expand
