Gaming blog Kotaku have revealed that Freestyle Games (B-Boy) that were bought up by Activision Blizzard last week is working on DJ Hero (a patent registered earlier this year).
"The game, which has been in development for nearly two years, is expected to hit shelves next summer and will likely include the ability to use Guitar Hero guitars for versus mode face-offs.
The controller, key to the game's success, has been through nearly a half-dozen iterations.
In the latest form, the device looks a lot like a simplified DJ Deck. There is a platter for scratching which will act like the strum toggle on a Guitar Hero guitar. Above the platter are three buttons for sampling. The controller also includes a cross fader and a sound effects dial which will act like the whammy bar in Guitar Hero."
Sounds interesting, but do we really we need more plastic in our living rooms? (Yes, we do). Enjoy the quote below... can you name the song?
"Burn down the disco
Hang the blessed DJ
Because the music that they constantly play
It says nothing to me about my life."
