-better rewind
-setlist
DJ Hero 2 was not as much fun as the first DJ Hero. Mainly from the most important part. The setlist or songs they chose. They were boring. I prefer more upbeat music I guess. DJ Hero had classics but modern yet still great music to play. Daft Punk, Little Richard, Grandmaster Flash, etc. And the songs that I wasn’t really into I still could enjoy playing. But DJ Hero 2 went in a more serious way in what music they chose. They did have some good and neat stuff. Like The Prodigy and Axel F. But then they used so much Lil’ Wayne and Kanye West. Which if you’re like me. I don’t enjoy them at all. And it was so much of it. And the songs that I didn’t know on DJ Hero 2 were not making me feel any better. DJ Hero was more classic hip hop. DJ Hero 2 was more R&B and modern rap. They had some classics but their mixes were not as good as the first DJ Hero.
They did add new features. More freestyle of everything. Freestyle scratches and crossfades. Which is neat. But they grade you on your freestyle. Which is not too bad. It just feels they are looking for a certain freestyle. And they made the rewind better. In DJ Hero you would rewind and it would stop you at a random spot. Which could be right in front of a note. In DJ Hero 2 they made checkpoints that you rewind to so they can put you at a good spot. Which is nice.
They had other modes. Battles, storyish mode, and quickplay. The story is just play this song to unlock the next song. Which isn’t DJ Hero 2. That’s just how GH and DJH work really. You play all the songs and unlock more stuff. You always play a few songs you don’t really enjoy but you bare through it to go to the next one. I only got so far before I gave up from all the boring music. I didn’t care. I went into Quickplay to check what else they had incase I might miss something. I played the songs that stood out and they still weren’t as great as the DJ Hero mixes. Battles are part of the story. It was whatever. Not good or bad. It’s just there.
Conclusion: Overall I enjoyed DJ Hero much more the DJ Hero 2. It was quite a disappointment considering how much fun the first one was.
