If you like your music games with a bit less metal and a bit more crossfading, you'll be glad to know that DJ Hero 2 is on store shelves starting today. Up to two turntables and a vocalist can team up to... er, spin that record, babe. If you're undecided about the game, you can try a browser based demo, using the mouse and keyboard to simulate the true turntable experience. It's actually pretty fun by itself, though I can't compare it to the real controller as I've never used one.
The first DLC packs for DJ Hero are headed to a hard drive near you starting early next month. So if you've always wanted to mix "Umbrella" with "Let's Get It On" (and let's face it, who hasn't?), you'll get your wish soon enough.
