DJ Hero

Activision, creators of the game Guitar Hero, is preparing to release another title for their music game line up - DJ Hero. The game will be packaged with a hardware controller that looks similar to a standard CD turntable. Whether this says anything about contemporary music, i.e rock is dead, I can't tell...One thing is for sure, now all the quasi-dj's playing straight from some software can start to practise the actual craftmanship. F-ck I've seen dudes standing there without any headphones with all the music pre-programmed. What's the deal with that?
Rumours says that Dj Shadow, amongst others, have been developing and testing the game. Thugh it's unclear who'll actually cover the actual Dj Hero.

Read a rumor of Daft Punk being featured in the game as well. Think I stick with my plastic toy guitar a while though. ;)

Yeah, and a few others (not worth mentioning). We'll see what it's going to look like, if it's all itchy and scratchy...
