Quote from cowguy : I am not particular in to electronic music but the DJ Hero 2 soundtrack is really great. Really got rave reviews when it was out.

There's actually not a lot of electro music. It's mostly Hip Hop with a sprinkle of Rock, Alternative, and Electro music.

Quote from Votey : I love Rock Band, would I have $15 worth of fun with the DJ Hero 1 bundle?

I like DJ hero much better than Rock Band; I like the turntable better than the guitar peripherals and I like the mash-ups a lot.

Quote from djsatan : Is a fun reprieve in for one as the price is right and besides will look hilarious sitting next to my Kontrol S4

hahah exactly what I use! nice!!!!

the music is really good and the mashups are very creative. gameplay is a lot of fun.

it has online and local multiplayer.

DJ Hero 2 is definitely the better game. All the little rough edges of DJ Hero 1 were smoothed out and refined.

DJ Hero 1 arguably has the better soundtrack. It also has guitar play but the guitar part has really generic notes so it's not as intricate as Guitar Hero or Rock Band. But the DJ stuff is great.

I say they're both totally worth it. It's so cheap! Remember these were originally $100-200 for the game and 1 turntable.

I'm debating on picking up a 2nd turntable via the DJ Hero 1 bundle since I already have one...I assume the version 1 and version 2 turntables are the same, correct? How is the 2 player mode in DJ Hero 2?

Yeah turntables are the same. 2 player mode is pretty much as you expect, mostly it's two people playing the same song to try and get a higher score. There are a few 'battle' songs where it switches back and forth between player to player which is kind of neat.

I LOVE Rock Band as well, and I purchased DJ Hero when it first came out. I found that the music selection wasn't geared towards someone who likes contemporary music. It might have changed with DLCs, but I sold the game after a week of use.

Thanks...for $15, it might be nice to have two turntables...I'm in.

I bought a couple bundles for gifts. Great deal.
The turn table is a very uncomfortable controller (trying to press the inner buttons vs spinning) ... more annoying than the songs themselves. I don't take it as seriously as Rock Band.

There are freestyle sections in the songs where you can mix or hit the red button for special sounds. It's first come first serve. Whoever starts DJ'ing first in those sections locks out the other player and can get a nice point advantage that way.

This is almost as good as the Best Buy clearance last year where the DJ Hero 2 bundles were only $10. I'm thinking about getting a party bundle for my cousin because he really liked playing mine.

Maybe I'll get this so I can practice my boomerang, orbit, 2 click flare, and stabs

UPS employees at a hub stole my shipment from a previous deal... =(

When I bought the DJ Hero 2 Party Bundle for Xbox 360, it came with both games even though it is nowhere mentioned that it does, not sure if it was an error because it was loosely packed in the Party box, and unboxing videos don't mention it. So you may get lucky!

Quote from sanders : Can you use the music from DJ Hero 1 in DJ Hero 2? Just wondering since v2 comes with two turntables. What about DJHv1 w/ one turntable & DJH2 license only. Will DJH2 play nice with DJH1 single turntable?

You can only play DLC songs you've purchased for DJH1 in DJH2 (after you download the patch to do this). You cannot export the songs on the DJH1 disc to your harddrive to play on DJH2.

Yes, DJH2 plays fine with the DJH1 turntable. The DJH2 turntable is just put in packaging for the second game since it was the first time separate turntables were available.
