I am going to toss my opinion in here about this entire thread......
I got DJ hero today from my boy as a promo gift, its OK, no better or worse than guitar hero, the same skill and technique go into both....and neither will help you actually help you play either instrument...if I had to buy one I would buy the cheap one, you get a jay/em cd and a travel case (which is useless) I dont see any extra tracks (correct me if I am wrong), it would have been good if they actually made a metal version something more heavy duty. The deck feels like its ok, but that crossfader is going to break on a lot of people......If i can break the knob off of a RANE and a VESTAX in the same year, this thing has no chance......
Being a dj I appreciate the effort from the gaming industry to bring something I would like to play to market, the first dj game I ever played was in japan at an arcade, it was really cool at the time, but again, is no more of an actual dj game.
and as far as actually using records to dj, I prefer it, I never minded lugging around my crates, but clubs do want you to just bring the laptops and a external HD....and I think this is why so many people are dj's now, its easier to dj now, I was just at a club and this dude had 10-20 cue points per song and a bpm plug in!!!!! He might as well just make a CD at home and stand there and play it.... Click, drag, drop, count out the 4 and drop the next track on the 1, thats what djing has become................
on the other hand, it does make people rethink how they mix and transition, in the end I am guessing it will force people to push the limits more.......
Those looking into the DJ Hero Renegade Edition are probably curious to know what songs will be included in the 2-disc CD pack-in that contains exclusive music by Jay-Z and EMINEM. Activision has revealed the entire track list, composed of "best hits" from Jay-Z and a personal selection by EMINEM himself including a new track that has never been released to the public, "Taking My Ball."
Wouldn't you think the song Renegade would be on this? Or in the game itself?

I've played through some of the tracklist, and some tracks sound like they're rushed while others I was able to hear how offbeat some are.Originally Posted by datdamndeuce
I won't touch on the real DJ controversy that is brewing because of this game...
But I'm sure even the real DJs out there can appreciate about 75% of these mixes...some of these are just GOOD MUSIC. I think that's part of the reason why I'm starting to like this game so much...
I'm not much of a DJ, but I can appreciate the songs that they have on here. Don't know much about the scratching, etc. But when I comeacross BBD and Cameo...cmon that's gotta hit home, lol.Originally Posted by RHYTHMentality

Other tracks have almost literally nothing going on.
I've said this before, I've found a few hidden gems here/there [Q-Tip vs. Billy Squier is NASTY!] but 75% seems like it's pushing it @ the moment.
I'm willing to give the rest of the tracklist a shot, but at that point, I've just played the entire game.

Forreal though, being in the video game industry, I'm not too mad. It's a video game, and I do realize the difference between video gamesand real life.Originally Posted by djaward

I agree with you 110%. Djs nowadays suck donkey balls. I hate going to a club and seeing an empty dj booth but good music is playing. The bad thing about it is that the dj is probably a sibling or a good friend of the PROMOTER/OWNER.
