Ever wonder what that one guy is doing up there in the DJ booth while you're having fun on the dance floor? Turns out he's having even more fun than you are. DJ Hero — made by the ubiquitous and presumably very wealthy folks who made Guitar Hero — comes with its own freestanding turntable, with which you can scratch along with master tracks from Daft Punk, Jay-Z and Eminem. It sounds crazy, but it works: even when you're alone in your living room eating take-out, you'll feel like you're rocking a block party. — Lev Grossman
