Well, Activision Blizzard never really formally announced the title yet, but that’s not stopping some details from squeezing into the light though. This news item comes from a newsletter circulating via email.
The email describes DJ Hero as a Guitar Hero spin-off much like the Aerosmith and Metallica editions. Of course, everyone assumes that, instead of guitars, we might be getting a new turntable-type of peripheral.
As for DJ Tiesto’s active part in the game, the newsletter continues by saying that he will be providing the tracks for the game – tracks from his existing records, “as well as new music composed especially for the game.” The newsletter includes a note from Tiesto himself:
I am very excited about this! I think this is a great way to introduce people into Djing. Maybe they realize it’s not as easy as they think. I am sure this brings new fans to the scene, dance music is not far from hip-hop for example. Hopefully the music I have composed appeals to all kinds of fans!
C’mon, Activision, just spill the beans already! We know it’s cooking somewhere in your labs!
