    Once again, courtesy of GameTrailers. Knocking it out of the park with these first looks:


    My first impressions? It looks a lot like Guitar Hero, only on a record instead of a fret board and maaaaaaad slow. Granted, this is one easy, but it just seems to be really underwhelming in its current state. I was kind of holding out hope that the turntableism you interacted with the game would somehow effect the song iteself (think hammering down on a whammy bar or doing drum solo, only much more intregral to the whole gaming experience.) Instead, it looks like you fill in the beat of someone who already remixed the song, and is likely better at it than you. Disappointing, for me.

    What about you?

    This music games have to stop.

    But seriously, I have to see how the controller works first. If all you're doing is pressing buttons....kinda lame. I know Beatmania you could actually spin a record of sorts if I remember right.

    My best guess is that your pushing the buttons down, then turning the record in a scratching motion. Remember, Guitar Hero also has two inputs: hold note, strum chord. I suspect that the scratching is the second input along with holding down the buttons.
