There is a video game revolution going on and if you are a rocker, you probably already know about it and love it. I have not found any video game fan yet that doesn't love playing Rock Band or Guitar Hero. They have been a phenomenon in the video game industry and have helped make video gaming an accepted recreational activity. It has accounted for most of the growth in the industry over the past three years and doesn't look to slow down any time soon.

Even those that are not fans of rock music or heavy metal enjoy playing these games, however many of them were looking for something that was more in their realm of music. There were individuals that are looking for more techno and hip hop music games, like the music they hear at the clubs. Well, now their prayers have been answered. DJ Hero is the next revolutionary game that is being brought to us by the creators of guitar hero. Although this game does not come with a guitar, a set of drums or a microphone, it does come with something so unique, that many will not be able to guess. It is a music item that millions will be able to recognize and thousands have wanted to work with at one point. DJ Hero comes complete with a DJ turntable!

A turntable? Yes, it looks like a DJ turntable with the turntable, buttons and sliders that a real one would have. You push the buttons it time to the beats and move the slider and turntable to the reverb and different changes in the music. It takes a little bit of practice to get used to the new interface and once you get the hang of it it feels just like any other rhythm game, only a little bit different and with a different set of songs.

The songs are different enough and varied enough in the genre that even non fans can keep pushing through the songs and enjoy the game. The songs are performed by some of the biggest names in DJ circles, but probably don't mean anything to most people. Just know that the songs are put together very well and even if the genre is not your favorite, and you wouldn't have any of them on your IPod, they are still a blast and fun to play.

This might be the next big thing, but it comes with a hefty price tag, it will sell for around $150. Not as much as a complete Rock Band or Guitar Hero band kit, or the new Beatles game, but with all the options available now, consumers might have to be a little more discriminating in their purchases.

Many people prefer to stay at home and watch movies, rather then going to the theatre. It is less expensive and it is easier to snuggle up to that someone you love.
