Product ReviewsDJ Hero (Nintendo Wii, 2009)

good but not as great as rock band/guitar hero

Graphics: 3/5 stars
Gameplay: 5/5 stars
Music: 5/5 stars
Overall: 4/5 stars

I am sure you have seen this in stores or on TV or have possibly read about it. This is released by ACTIVISION in 2009 in hopes to be a hit like guitar hero or rock band. It uses a turntable device to imitate a real DJ. I recommend this for anyone that is very coordinated and has video gaming experience. Anyone that has a hard time or beginner is going to have a difficult time fully appreciating this game. The music however is very entertaining. You can also unlock music and have add ons. The beats are very good. You will get tired of this game after 4-5 hours. Overall it is 4/5 stars.

Real DJ approved

I am a DJ and I play this with some of my DJ buddies. We have a good time trying to keep up with the game. It is realistic with the turntable controllers and being able to duel add more fun. Sometimes we just use the freeplay option/partymix for our own small parties. Even if you are not a DJ, or want to build skills without investing in a DJ system first, this will work well for you. It's also great when you don't want to pull out your DJ system to practice.

So, if you're thinking about getting one and have a Wii, get this kit. I highly recommend also getting DJ Hero original game to learn the basics on using this turntable-mixer controller. It has skills yout to get you started.

Dj Hero - Wii

This game revolutionized the face of music video games. The controller is amazing and is much more fun/easier to use than the guitar. On top of that all the music is great and you don't have to sit through any songs that would normally make you want to rip your hair out. Dj hero is a great investment if you just want to have some fun with your friends and bob your heads a little bit. Make sure you have a decent tv and some good speakers that can produce some good sound, it will for sure add another element to an already great game.

enjoy.Read full review...

if you like guitar hero, you will love DJ Hero. it is a game where you are a dj and you make mixes and play concerts. the controls are simple, you just touch the buttons that match the ones traveling toward you on the screen. it has great graphics and has 4 modes. if you like music buy it. Dj Hero is also great for parties too. *****Read full review...

Dj Hero Rocks!!!

This game is very challenging, and entertaining. The music is quite diverse and the characters are interesting. I recommend anyone who is interested in DJ'ing to challenge themselves to this game. You'd be surprised just how difficult it is at times to multi-task. It's a great party game as well, my friends love it!Read full review...

Great Second Turntable added to our collection of Wii games!

This was an excellent addition to my daughters Wii games.

I bought it to have as an extra. She loves it, this is her second turntable, so that she can play with friends.

We like just about everything about it, it's user friendly for kids and adults alike, very fun!

Never had any other turntable style games besides the Wii, so I don't know about any other games like this one.

A+++ is my rating!Read full review...

DJ Hero ... party all night long

I got this for my son (9 years old) for christmas and we've been partying ever since. LOL. This is a great game and easy to get started. You can either just listen to the great mixes, "shake a leg" or try your own dj skills but since it is so easy and so much fun, my son hasn't put the turntable down yet.Read full review...
