DJ Hero will be the series' first entry focused on disc scratching. As with other Guitar Hero titles, DJ Hero will be packaged with a special controller. The game itself will feature songs from various genres, ranging from R&B to Dance.
Band Hero is another first for the franchise, as it is the first family oriented game in the series. Rated E10+, Band Hero will follow the ideas established by both Rock Band and Guitar Hero: World Tour and create a family-friendly environment where players can play guitar, bass, drums, and sing vocals.
As aforementioned, Guitar Hero 5 was also announced and will feature a few new abilities such as changing players, difficulty levels, and instruments on the fly.

How can they seriously make a Guitar Hero 5? There was never a game called Guitar Hero 4.
Probably because Guitar Hero World Tour was pretty much known as Guitar Hero 4."Tour" rhymes with "four". That's good enough.

So that means that Guitar Hero 5 will eventually become Guitar Hero: Live?
"Tour" rhymes with "four".
"Tour" rhymes with "four".
Er, what?
Guitar Hero has made music social again
We got that. The problem is "tour" doesn't rhyme with "four". Just like "dew" doesn't rhyme with "sew".What are you talking about? How do you pronounce "tour"? It sounds just like ""four" but with a "T" whenever I hear anyone pronounce it...

Now that I think about it, I have heard it pronounced that way, by I think a British person. Americans bastardize the English language though... which must be so that we can form rhymes.It makes sense to me. Though some people pronounce it Tu-er and others pronounce it toe-er (toe as in the digits on your feet).We got that. The problem is "tour" doesn't rhyme with "four".

I know people with a Boston accent pronounced gardener as gardner (and also pronounce "chowder" as "chow-dah").
seriously, who pronounces it as two syllables? he left town, he went on "toe-er".
Lots of people leave out the R when they say "library" and "February", that doesn't mean they aren't pronouncing it wrong.I agree with this. This may just be something I've never noticed before, since the two syllables sort of flow into each other.

Off-topic: Everyone here seen the preview for Dance Flick (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uhjbN0T14U)? Move looks horrible, but I can't help but laugh at the following back-and-forth.
Person 1: Man, there ain't no I in team.
Person 2: There aint?
Person 1: No.
Person 2: What about group?
Person 1: No, not in group either.
Person 2: Crew?
Person 1: Nuh-uh.
Person 2: Gang.
Person 1: No.
Person 2: Insemble.
Person 1: You just mispronounced that word to make it sound like it had an I in it.
Is it done by the Wayans Bros though?
I just remember them saying "by the guys that brought you White Chicks and Lilttle man"
that doesn't mean the Wayans are involved. Its that level of trust that got us to watch Scary Movie 3 & 4, Date Movie and every other horrible movie made relating to the success of the 1st two Scary Movies. Now their trying to do the same thing with White Chicks and to a lesser extent Little man.
If the Wayans themselves aren't in it, then don't believe the hype. Where is the next comedy brought to us by the guys that brought us Don't Be A Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice In The Hood?
Ah ok. I thought that guy looked familiar.
I guess I'll put that on the Netflix list then.
