Most reviewers seem to be hip hop fans with little to no experience on real tables.

I think I will probably stick my tables and crates.

I have spoken to my friends who DJ and they say it is fun but it is nothing like the real thing (obviously) but it is still enjoyable.

I've also heard that you can get it for $10 cheaper shipped on Amazon.ca, but hey, who's telling?

But then the question is do you pay the $10 and get it instantly or save $10 but wait a while for it?

Where are all the haters to helpfully point out that you're not actually being a DJ; you're just playing a stupid video game? And that being able to mix Daft Punk with Young MC on DJ Hero isn't the same as laying down a phat beat in da club?

I must say I expected more people to jump on this thread bashing the game...I managed to find the tracks from this game ripped on the net, some of these tracks are amazing. I really hope they officially release all of these mixes, I would gladly pay for a CD with all these songs on it.

You're just playing a stupid video game, and being able to mix Daft Punk with Young MC on DJ Hero isn't the same as laying down a phat beat in my basement, stupid.

Hahaha....hmmmm what does that sound familiar?

This is outstanding. So fun laying down phat beats. It's definitely a challenge though...gotta have both hands doing entirely different things. I'd say it's tougher than Guitar Hero.

Yes I do find it harder than guitar hero..anyone run into the problem when doing a rewind getting the table in the correct position with all fingers in place to start hitting beats right away? Maybe I am just uncoordinated?

Yeah it can kinda be a bitch once in a while...especially when I get all jacked and spin with too much glee.
