Guitar Hero May Get DJ Hero Treatment
With DJ Hero coming later this year with confirmed guitar peripheral support, Neversoft came out to elaborate further on the peripheral support for each game. And the director of Guitar Hero, Brian Bright, revealed interest in giving Guitar Hero 5 a similar treatment.
Guitar Hero 5 is scheduled to release before DJ Hero, and Bright acknowledges that there will definitely be some difficulty in implementing compatibility for the peripheral.
“Unfortunately for Guitar Hero 5, we ship a few months before they do. [But] we’d love to explore instrument compatibility in the future; we’ll see where it goes.”
With the director of the franchise interested in turntable support for Guitar Hero 5, it seems more likely that it will be added on in the future. Don’t expect a repeat of the Rock Band/Guitar Hero peripheral compatibility snafoo, especially since the same publisher is behind both Hero titles.

IF they do this i dont see the point, i mean i understand the 10 tracks that can be used fro DJ vs Guitar in DJHero, but doing the same in this doesnt feel right, i feel that its being done in the other game as a ribute to where it all started, ad of course for fun, but if it be done vice versa, why not just mix the two, which i wouldnt really like though.

[...] Activision’s sequel to one of the best first-person shooters of this generation, Modern Warfare 2, is already guarrenteed a blockbuster hit. But will it be the best-selling title of the year? Mike Hickey of Janco Partners financial analyst firm has set a sales prediction for Modern Warfare 2 at 11.1 million units by the time the calendar year is over, besting even the record breaking sales of Grand Theft Auto IV. “We believe Modern Warfare 2 will likely be the largest video game release for 2009. For the Company’s fiscal Q409 period (Dec. ending), we anticipate the sell through to consumers of 11.1 million units for an estimated retail value of $803 million and sell-in approximating 12.4 million units, for an approximated sales value of $666 million (we assume demand is 90% of supply).” [...]
