Remember ... The first time you are found in front of your TV with your plastic guitar around your neck, you felt a little ridiculous, right? you family burst out laughing ! But all this did not stop Guitar Hero to become a hit worldwide, which is probably logical for a game music. After opening the principle to other bass instruments, drums and voice-Activision is continuing its effort and putting the finishing touches on DJ Hero, a title where the guitars and others will be replaced by a turntable.
Short Description of the object that we could take control. On the one hand, the platinum itself is topped by three buttons: one green, one red and one blue from the outside inwards returning tone keys on the different models of guitar for Guitar Hero. Next to the plate, there is a block bringing together the different "instruments" that are used to modify the titles used in part to do something else. Let the call from the top: the traditional touches of the console on which the accessory is intended collected under a hood. Just below, it falls on the crossfader which will manage the balance of volume between the two tracks used. Just below is the knob side effects which was installed the button to trigger the Euphoria that DJ Hero held in the same role as the Star Power of Guitar Hero.
On screen, DJ Hero takes the principle of runs as in Guitar Hero. These are three in number, as the buttons on the board which they reflect the colors. Their route follows the shape of a disc portion presented on the screen. Therefore it forms a curve. The blue and green represent the two pieces will be mixed. The red line in the middle, is linked to the samples and used to trigger sound effects or voice clips. The icons that run on the tracks indicate when to use the crossfader to focus on a track over the other. From far away, the track displays arrows to indicate in what direction we need to rotate the turntable to generate a scratch. In terms of effects, it is also possible to use a "Rewind" which will bring the track back a few seconds to repeat a really significant moment in the song. From what we saw, it is clear that to cope with the difficulty levels the highest, it will require dexterity and speed of action as required in guitar Hero.
DJ Hero will use a hundred licensed songs, and more specifically about seventy different mix which will combine some of them so they are again playing with the deck. In addition, through the Jukebox mode, you can listen any capacity in order to study and enter into the piece when you wish to begin to bring the effects. As we saw in the preview of Guitar Hero 5, this option would allow players more freedom to participate in one piece is destined to become the big thing of this kind of games in the coming months . Note finally that, over a dozen pieces, it will be possible for a second player to plug in a guitar to participate in different mix or a USB microphone can be used to add a few words.
