The full DJ Hero set list has been revealed, and it's a really, really long list of music.
Of course, they're all mixes -- or mashups -- of songs. 93 mixes to be exact, with the total number of individual songs closer to 100, all master recordings. You might not recognize some of them right away because of how they're cut, but there's music from Marvin Gaye, David Bowie, Gwen Stefani, Bell Biv DeVoe, Cypress Hill, Billy Squier, and more on this thing. So no matter how you cut it, it's a hell of a lot of music.
DJ Hero hits stores on October 27, so start making room on your coffee table for another peripheral.

Anyway I'm sold. Even though (A) they didn't deliver on the Motorhead vs. Rhiana and (B) there's no Amy Winehouse or New Young Pony Club.
Good times!
M.I.A. vs. Eric B. & Rakim?!
I dunno, looks like I might at least look at the soundtrack.
This game has Marvin Gaye and Eric B/Rakim. CLASSICS MAN!
*quickly changing into new pair of pants*
Of course there will be DLC! DLC=more money!
Paper Planes vs. Eric B. is President?
Izzo (H.O.V.A.) vs. My Name Is?
I`ll wait for Scratch The Ultimate DJ.
Not one, but two mashups.
Goddamn, I miss J5.
my mind has been blown now....
Some will love this, but I'm still on the bench. Certain tracks on their own are cool, but mashing them with other stuff dilutes the feel a track gives you. Even when I go in a club, I hate it when DJ's mess with just playing a track straight out uninterrupted. I think I'll pass on this, and I don't think it will be as popular and GH/Rockband.
But hey, there's always the sequel!
Not sure if want.
All the Daft Punk stuff though is most certainly WANT material, however.
I don't even know what that means but I know I want it.
-more Cypress Hill or like other west coast rappers
-i think they need more gangsta rap (more explicit lyrics)
-why no Dr. DRE!!!???
-overall very disappointed in the tracks for this game, i love hip hop and this ain't it (Gwen Stefani!!! like seriously :|)

I'll have to hear some of this first.
And why mashups? If this is about being a DJ, then let the people beatmatch....
This has FAIL written all over it.
At $120, I would rather wait for the inevitable DJ Hero 2 and - in the meantime - pick up the peripheral for far less than MSRP (<3 CAG).
