Test your DJ skills out to the max!
May 28, 2009 by Phil Tolhurst
If you’ve got kids older than mine, or like me you own a Wii and 360 you’ve almost definitely heard of Guitar Hero and Rock Band. These are the rock rhythm games that put you in control of plastic guitars and drum kits while caricatures of your childhood rock heroes rock it out on your 40” widescreen TVs
Well as Agent Smith said in the Matrix “You hear that Mr. Anderson?… That is the sound of inevitability…” and low and behold we now have DJ Hero and Numark Scratch. Even before either game has been released the claws have come out and things have gotten down and dirty in the courts.
But now at last we get a glimpse of the controllers in question. And they both look, well, interesting, not quite what I was expecting. I was thinking we’d get something more like the Hercules I suppose. It’ll be and interesting battle and it’ll probably come down to who has the bigger names and best track lists. I won’t bore you with the technical details of the devices I’ll just leave you to look at the pretty pictures and wonder where it all went wrong with your chosen profession.
