The controller for ‘Scratch Ultimate DJ’

This year will see the release of not one, but two DJ games. DJ Hero and it’s rival game, ‘Scratch Ultimate DJ’ are both slated for release later this year. One this is clear, these games have massive, ridiculous controllers. This thing looks massive. Do you put it on your lap or set it up on your coffee table?

Either way, rythm games have officially gotten out of hand. I like Rock Band, that’s where I draw the line. I’ll down load lots of new songs for ‘Rock Band 2’ but I don’t want to buy another new ‘Rock Band’ game anytime soon. Well… ‘Beatles: Rock Band’, I will make an exception for but not all this other nonsense.

‘Guitar Hero’ has far too many damn games coming out for it. ‘Guitar Hero: Metallica, Aerosmith and soon Van-Halen (Who needs Guitar Hero Van-Halen?) Any how, I digress, but in all seriousness, do people have enough disposable income to drop on a nonsense DJ Controller and game that will easily run over $150.00? Doubtful.

This is nothing new, why are people freaking out about a fucking DJ style game.  They had a few versions available on the PS2 for some time now.  Usually one would play this on a table or if they were really good in their lap.  The controllers were usually about 2 ft long total, the turntable is scaled down and the buttons are laid out nearly identical as the arcade version in which they were ported from.  Personally I think the price will be slightly less but not by much, the Rock Band sets were on avg 100-190…looking like they might go for about 100 or so soon after release.
