The Guitar Hero universe is about to expand, not just with a new band
or instrument - but with a whole new style of music. Never mind air
guitar, now you can pretend to be a superstar DJ from the comfort of
your own home thanks to the new turntable controller bundled with the
game.
The basics of gameplay are still similar to Guitar Hero
The Euphoria button works just like Star Power from Guitar Hero
The turntable controller is the only way to play DJ Hero
Play in co-op mode with a friend and you can co-operate on any track
The
gameplay is still similar to Guitar Hero, as notes travel around the
on-screen turntable and you have to hold down the three "stream"
buttons on the controller at the right time to keep the mix going. For
advanced players there's also an effects dial, crossfader and the score
boosting "Euphoria" button.
Created with input from top
professional DJs and with the biggest range of bands and music styles
of any game to date this has something to please every music fan.
Whether you know how to DJ in real life or not this is now the ultimate
party game.
