Activision confirms 'Hero' titles
Published Saturday, May 9 2009, 02:56 BST | By Liam Martin

DJ Hero, which was inadvertently leaked by DJ Tiesto, features a new turntable controller as well as genres including hip-hop, R&B, Motown, electronica and dance.
Band Tour is aimed at a family audience, and will utilise a similar game play style to Guitar Hero: World Tour but contain top 40 hits.
According to Activision, Guitar Hero 5 will give players "an unprecedented level of control over the way they play", with players granted the ability to change difficulty, drop in and out of songs, and also change band members at will.
The games will follow Guitar Hero: Metallica and Guitar Hero: Smash Hits, which are due for release in the next couple months.
