DJ Hero Spins Into Stores on Oct. 27th

Activision confirmed during a conversation with Joystiq that DJ Hero will be released on October 27th in the United States and sometime in "late" October everywhere else. Since that date is in late October itself, it's more than likely that it will be out during that week across the entire globe.

The game comes with 93 mixes and will be compatible with Guitar Hero and Rock Band guitars and microphones. That means that you'll be able to freestyle on the mic while you're playing for that full DJ experience. That also means you'll need someone else in the house or you'll be yelling at yourself. The games price has not been officially confirmed, but many are speculating that it will run about $120 for the standard edition and $200 for the "Renegade Edition" which will include a stand for your turntable.

A portion of the soundtrack that has been confirmed includes:

Feel Good Inc. - Gorillaz
Hollaback Girl - Gwen Stefani
My Name Is - Eminem
Rock the Bells - LL Cool J
Shout - Tears for Fears
Another One Bites the Dust - Queen
