Why wait for E3 2010 to announce your fall lineup? Seems like plenty of big reveals are finding their way online a full week before the show, a trend continued today with DJ Hero 2.

Artists revealed include: Dr Dre, The Chemical Brothers, Kanye West, Metallica, Lady Gaga, Rihanna and over 85 others.
