I was tempted by it as well, back before they announced the price. I just think it's pretty ridicolous, yet they obviously think they can get away with it, especially in the run up to Xmas.

In comparison, I bought the MS Wheel and Dirt2 a couple of months ago, and that together worked out a lot cheaper, for what is essentially a well designed piece of hardware with force feedback.

Yay, I won tickets to the launch party tomorrow night. DJ Shadow will be there.

I was about 70% certain that I'd buy DJ Hero and that's now gone up to 99%.

Congrats, one Shop has got the Wii version in stock.. hoping they get the 360 version soon so I will haz it tomorrow

I preordered it anyway. Not sure if I'll get on with it but I guess I'll soon find out.

I'm pretty sure I'll end up getting it, but its definitely overpriced

. Considering you could pick up GH3 + Guitar, at launch for ~50-60 i don't see how this is worth 20-30 quid more?

It's really annoying how much cheaper it is in the US. The limited edition signed bundle on DJ Shadow's website is £9 cheaper than the standard UK version.

Everything is cheaper in the US. Thats life unfortunately.

My current hatred of this stems from panasonics latest Projector, AE4000. In the US, $1999. Over here, £2499. Whut!? I could fly over there, and buy two and get a free holiday out of it for that money.

maxilive · 28 Oct 2009 at 18:26

I don't think there is enough Hardcore music for Chavs

icehot · 28 Oct 2009 at 19:10

Nice. Looks like I'll be going on a supermarket hunt in my lunch break, wonder which one it could be.

Zensuji · 30 Oct 2009 at 11:10

This looks like fun. I'll get it when its down to around the £50 mark...even if that may be a long way off.

maxilive · 30 Oct 2009 at 11:47

It will probably be a year or so once DJ Hero 2 comes out before you see it down to £50

I've also replied to your email Chris.

Yeah that sounds about right. I'm fine with that TBH. Not desperate to play just quite fancy a spin (pun intended)

Cheers broheim. Still umming and ahhing over it, its a lot of cheddar to drop on a game when I still havent finished Uncharted 2, or even started FIFA10 and Forza 3 :eek:

Scottona · 30 Oct 2009 at 11:59

It looks really good and has some good reviews going round, it reminds me very much of the first guitar hero, a simple game with not a huge amount too it (dipping its toes into the market to get a feel)...

Just cant decide its just slightly over priced for me at the moment with so many other games around to get too!! Im waiting to see what people think of it apart from the reviews!!

If this goes well I can see DJ Hero 2 being amazing!!

apatia77 · 30 Oct 2009 at 12:45

This looks like fun but no thanks, I cannot spend this much money again on something i'll use for 10-20h

even though I bet its fun to play.

Nexus · 30 Oct 2009 at 12:54

I'd really like to try it first, before spending the cash if I do decide to get it now.
Hopefully the likes of HMV and Game on Oxford Street will have pods, but most likely be busy.
