abigailmOct 28, 200910OMG! So fresh and fun. Not boring or repetitive like guitar hero. Easy for beginners and when you step up the difficultly, it will even keep hard core fans interested. The music is fresh for mainstream fans and also features classic hits for techno loving fans. Great game A+

JimSOct 30, 20099I've waited so long for a DJ game like this to come to the console. All my guitar hero and rock band friends were bashing the game pretty hard; but as soon as they spun a few tracks they were hooked. Hell I'm hooked. Guaranteed months and months of fun.

CDNov 3, 20099Lost for words. Hook this up to your speakers, crank it up and grin. If you like rhythm games and you have a pulse, chances are you'll be as happy as DJ with an eightball

LokPOct 28, 20093Another leech in the genre. I loved Guitar Hero and Rock Band, but I feel that marketing has gotten the best of the music/game genre. I don't think they will stop until they completely milk it for every last drop. Would it hurt to use some creativity once in a while?

RobOct 27, 20099Super fun game! Can get pretty complicated fast. I enjoy it more then all the rockband stuff, but its more toward my music tastes.

BlakeHNov 1, 20098As a long-time Beatmania IIDX player, I must say that I am incredibly impressed with DJ Hero. Not only is it a fun game, but it delivers one of the first fresh music gaming experiences with a peripheral in a long time. The gameplay is solid and very addicting. My one complaint with the game is the soundtrack, too much mainstream pop stuff and not enough Trance, DnB or Hardcore.

Nov 17, 201010I ended up getting this game like a month late, but I LOVE this game. I don't play this game as much as DJ Hero 2 or the L4D games, but this game had some unforgettable tracks and loved how you get to choose your dj, venue, turntable, and etc. I'd recommend this to anyone, it's great fun.

Dec 7, 20126Original gameplay that is easy to learn with very little learning curve. Multiplayer is weak and limited though. Only a handful of mixes are actually good. A majority of the setlist consists of the same song being mixed 2-3 times with different songs, Which is a little annoying imo, Especially when the song sucks. Far too pricey as well.

90In an overcrowded genre of music games, DJ Hero resides at the very top with the best of 'em. The original mixes are stunning and scratching the turntable is just as fun as it seems.

93DJ Hero is a beautifully structured experience that understands the rhythm-action genre thoroughly enough to appeal directly to progression-obsessed fans, yet knows how to juggle its goods to offer a music experience that's never frustrating and wears its unpretentious accessibility with pride.

A well made title that even old farts can enjoy. From the quality set list, accessible turntable peripheral, and generally nicely implemented mechanics, there's a lot for any gamer to enjoy. On the downside, the multiplayer elements aren't nearly as convincing as they should be, making this a game you'll likely play alone.
