Venant tout juste de sortir sur Xbox 360, PS3, Wii et PS2, DJ Hero est le nouveau jeu de la grande série des "Hero", après Guitar Hero 1 à 5, en passant par Aerosmith, Metallica, Smash Hits, les jeux "On Tour" sur DS et le prochain Band Hero.
Ce tout nouveau jeu musical consiste à se prendre pour un DJ au lieu de se prendre pour une rock star. On joue à ce jeu avec ce contrôleur :
Cette manette consiste à un disque pouvant être tourné à 360 degrés, trois boutons sur le disque, un "cross-fader", une molette d'effets sonore et le bouton Euphoria (équivalent du Star Power dans GH).
Le but est similaire à Guitar Hero. Sauf qu'au lieu de jouer de la guitare, on mixe parmi plus de 100 musiques dans 92 mixs différents. Il y en a pour tous les goûts. Il y aura aussi la présence de frais DJ, comme DJ Shadow et Daft Punk, comme personnages à sélectionner.
Voici un screenshot (mode deux joueurs)
Je ne vous explique pas tout en détails concernant le gameplay. Tout ce que je vais vous dire c'est qu'on doit appuyer sur les touches, scratcher le disque et glisser le "cross-fader" pour composer le mix. Il est possible de revenir en arrière sur un mix en faisant un tour complet avec le disque, pour faire plus de points! Il est aussi possible, à certains passages d'un mix, de tourner la molette d'effets pour déformer la musique et faire des points.
Il est possible d'y jouer seul ou à deux. À deux, c'est soit DJ et DJ, soit DJ et guitare! Et oui! Il est possible de jouer à DJ Hero avec une guitare sur certains mixs, mais c'est en coopération que cela se fait seulement.
