Scratch Versus DJ Hero... Which Controller Makes More Sense?


A friend just emailed me regarding the DJ Hero controller piece I posted last week... apparently, DJ Hero isn't going to be the only DJ-themed game in town. From Kotaku:

From what we've seen of DJ Hero's turntable - and granted, it's probably not all of it - it's got three buttons and a turntable. But what about rival DJ game Scratch's turntable? As you can see here, in a marketing shot from earlier in the year that we've managed to get hold of (so things may have changed slightly since then), Scratch is not kidding around. Its got a "free-spinning, touch-sensitive turntable wheel", five coloured buttons and a small crossfader, all on a functional, if somewhat drab, hunk of grey plastic put together by (or at least licensed by) real turntable manufacturers Numark. [This game] is targeting a more specific audience: hip-hop and RnB fans.

Numark FTW!

Head over to Kotaku for the full story, including song details and pricing.

Thanks to my friend Ben for the lead
