    To me, DJ hero 2 was decent yet the replay-ability is just not realistic without the continued purchase of new tracks. It is fun for a group of non gamers to pass around for an hour while drinking among a party but I can honestly say i've taken this game out of the cabinet only 4 times, and one of those times was to control a dvd menu with the turntable because I couldn't find myTo me, DJ hero 2 was decent yet the replay-ability is just not realistic without the continued purchase of new tracks.

Not to mention nobody will buy this game for resale so i'm stuck with brief memories and an awkward remote control that kills batteries. Expand

    DJ Hero 2 is the best rhythm game I've played in a long, long time. The soundtrack is boss, and the new freestyle sections are an awesome addition. Rather than just hitting buttons in time with the music, DJ Hero 2 actually makes you feel as if you have a degree of control of what comes out of the speakers. I'd much rather play with plastic turntables than plastic guitars at this point.

    The people at Freestyle Games definetly gave a new spin to the DJ Hero gameplay. The Freestyle sections are very cool and the new option to sing or rap is great if you don't want to spin the records. A guaranteed party hit!
