I haven’t been much of a video-gamer for well over 8 years and I’ve jumped on the hype-wagon around the Wii phenomenon after hitting a chunk of home-runs, TKO’ing my co-worker, and putting a couple birdies in Wii Sports.

My first couple visits to the Manifesto Studios back in ‘08 had me banging on drum-pads in Guitar Hero (XBOX) and now aspiring DJ’s and curious music lovers can experience what it’s like to rock a crowd or at least, for now, rock it with family and friends in the living room with DJ Hero.

DJ Hero is Activision’s latest release sporting a CD-turntable-like DJ’ing game controller with game play similar to Guitar Hero.

Legendary DJ Shadow, interviewed by IGN.com speaks on the games control-play, the importance of music in the game, and the inspiration the game will have on aspiring DJ’s and music lovers.

You’ll be able to become a DJ Hero October 27th on your PS3, XBOX, or Wii.

The Business of Life

Life in itself is big business.  You have responsibilities, ideas, failures, successes, relationships, communication, money, growth, health, education and the list goes on.
