DJ Hero - An Exciting New Rhythm Game

Have you heard about the new rhythm game called DJ Hero? You could say it is similar to Guitar Hero in the sense that both are a music video game and use a note highway. It is a highly anticipated release across the world and brings new excitement to the gaming community.

The game has more than 80 remixes that mesh two different songs into each other across numerous genres. Players press buttons in rhyme with the highway scrolling on the screen to activate beats, cross fade between the two songs and use the turntable to scratch along with the song. Performing these tasks well scores points with your in game crowd.

The game has a single player career mode and cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes. You can also use a Guitar Hero guitar with select songs alongside the DJ game play.

Many DJ and mix artists have contributed to the game's development, the creation of mixes, and by lending their images for playable avatars in the game; these including David Guetta, DJ Shadow, Z-Trip, DJ AM, Cut Chemist, J.Period, Grandmaster Flash, DJ Jazzy Jeff, and Daft Punk.

DJ Hero is available for shipping or store pickup on BestBuy.com

Computers, video games and TVs have always been fascinating to me. Not only are they wonderful ways to relax, but they’re also immensely useful as tools. Computers allow us to communicate instantly with family members across the country through e-mail, video games allow us to make friends with people across the globe we wouldn’t even meet otherwise, and TVs allow us to see what’s happening in our very own towns…all at the touch of a button. Sure, over time I’ve managed to assemble a collection of other electronic gadgets that would make most people do a double-take, but that just isn’t enough. I want to know how they work. I want to know why they work. I want to know that I can connect every electronic device in my home into a single, fully-functional network that I can access from over 1,000 miles away at the drop of a hat. Not because I have a reason to do so, but because I can. I am a geek, plain and simple.

Photography has been my passion in life for as long as I can remember. Over the past twenty years, I have been creating photographic images, both professionally and artistically. I also have a B.F.A in photography. The first camera I ever purchased was a 35mm single lens reflex camera that took me an entire summer of weeding strawberry plants at a local farm to be able to afford. A lot has changed since then, and I have owned numerous camera systems from 35mm- Large Format. None of my previous equipment has affected the photographic experience for me as much as the Digital SLR I purchased a few years back. Since converting from film to digital, I have found that the immediate nature of digital photography has drastically changed the way I approach my subjects and has enabled me to view, share, and print my images in a completely new way. In addition to photography, I am passionate about the outdoor experience. Twice a year I head out to the great outdoors and go backpack camping, hiking and of course, landscape/nature photography.

I am a gamer; I have loved video games since the Nintendo launched on the scene and am currently rocking the latest gaming consoles. I am a geek; I love the latest technology and how it can improve life. I am a cyclist; I commute to work primarily by bicycle all year round and ride in charity events. I am a father; I have a son that I love very much who is with me full time this year. And finally, I am a good sport; you can talk to me about anything you’d like, even if you don’t have the best opinion of the company that I love to work for. I enjoy conversations about almost everything and my focus is to make sure that there is no rock unturned and no totally rad (or even partially rad) thing that goes on at Best Buy escapes your notice. In my free time, I cycle around Minneapolis and St. Paul with my friends, hang out at bike shops, attend art openings and volunteer at a local theater. I love art and music and attend lots of local shows as well; without art and music, I don’t know how I would be able to survive, to be honest! Strap in, and enjoy the ride, world!
