Some Quick Thoughts About DJ Hero 2...



It was inevitable that DJ Hero 2 will show up at E3 next week and releasing this fall for the three major consoles. Even though the trailer above seems kind of silly (dudes singing Lady Gaga may scare some peeps), it is still pretty much DJ Hero with more modes and now vocals supporting mics for whichever console you're using. I didn't really read in-depth with how gameplay will change other than additional multiplayer modes since that was the first game was missing. It is still the mashup fest of two songs as expected as different artists will be featured in the game like Deadmau5, but it is going to be hard trying to top Daft Punk's appearance in the first game. The featured mix in the trailer which is Lady Gaga's "Just Dance" vs. Deadmau5's "Ghosts 'n' Stuff" and it is also downloadable on the first DJ Hero for free until Monday, so if you have not gotten around to downloading that, don't hesitate because its free whether you like Gaga or not (Its a pretty good mix personally). DJ Hero 2 is out this fall and it will be tough competition for that with Rock Band 3 out around the same time reinventing the wheel, but maybe it can be a preference of music of which to buy if you have to choose one or the other (There's also Def Jam Rapstar, which I'm really curious about as I will mention something about that next week during E3). In the meantime, enjoy a new mix for DJ Hero 2 in full below...
