This review is from: DJ Hero 2 Turntable Bundle (Video Game)
Being a lifelong game player who started out on the old pong style games on a black & white tv I've played a wide assortment of platforms and games and the latest that I'm into are the various music games. Yes they can seem to be pretty much all the same after awhile (push this button, strum that button, hit drum pad) but the way I look at them is as an extension of the listening pleasure of the music with the ability to interact with what I'm listening to.
Since the first DJ Hero I have been wondering if I should take the step and after playing an online demo I decided to give it a go and purchased the DJ Hero 2 turntable bundle and am very happy I did. Although the general styles of music are not what I primarily listen to, the mixes in this game are very fun to listen to and as I am playing currently on medium, this game is a very nice challenge and loads of fun to play.

First, though I've not played Rock Band (drums or keyboard) I have spent a lot of time on the 360's guitars. They're great, but DJ Hero 2 is the best music game I've yet played. First of all the track listing is MUCH better than in the other music games, which typically rely heavily on old music I frankly hate. I am not a kid but seriously I have no interest at all in playing classic rock on a guitar. Not now, or ever. I love the genre of music in this game, heavy house/techno/dance mashups/remixes. Really, Mo' Money Mo' Problems, how can you go wrong? And a track by Prodigy (another downloadable), with the toughest in the game being Chemical Brothers' Galvanize. Plus several pop songs that hit the charts this year (2010).
Music aside, the game itself is pretty cool. The music is actually customizable on the fly; instead of simply hitting notes and having maybe a whammy bar that very occasionally changes the sound you can motivate it here with fading, among other things...Read more

This game is dope! I got it for my son for Christmas and we have been playing it non-stop. The mixes on this game are incredible and you will not be disappointed in the way the turntable works. It is very intuitive and is flawless in design. You will be jammin all night long. Do yourself a favor and make the purchase not now but right now.
