We’ve been keeping our eye on the upcoming DJ Hero video game ever since we got a look at the controller and play-through footage a few months back. Now that the 80-song-plus track list for the game, due out Oct. 27, has been released, we’re pretty much salivating: Soul and R&B? Check. Old-school, new-school, and indie hip-hop? Check. Daft Punk, Daft Punk, and more Daft Punk? A-yup. All mashed up into a Guitar Hero-inspired format that can be played single or multiplayer.
