Guitar Hero has become a global phenomenon and has gained millions of fans thanks to easy-to-learn, hard-to-master mechanics. DJ Hero has taken a similar concept and adapted it to suit fans of other music genres. We managed to take a scratch at the new DJ Hero game and peripheral.

Instead of the good old fashioned guitar DJ Hero places you as the DJ with a turntable. The turntable has three buttons on it, a scratch pad and a cross-fader switch which will have to be used in conjunction with each other to achieve the perfect score.

Being highly responsive, DJ Hero requires the player to complete certain beat sequences using the buttons, scratch particular segments with the turn table, and mix between songs with the cross fader. The turntable peripheral works really well and is a little more engaging than your guitar thanks to the fact that you can scratch.

So far the game has some really cool and bouncy tracks for you to mix and it can be quite addictive to play.

With its release in November 2009, this DJ is bound to mix up some sick beats and a huge following to bounce along with it.
