Presenting the controller for Activision’s upcoming DJ Hero game. And wouldn’t you know it, it’s a turntable with buttons on it. Now we wait for Harmonix to release DJ Band with a dual-turntable setup at which point Activision will respond with DJ Hero World Tour with its own dual-turntable setup.
Two images were posted to a Twitter account called “djhero” and, according to Kotaku, the images were later confirmed by an Activision press release. Here’s the second one:
DJ Hero will be available later this year, although no exact date has been set.

Why the hell are the buttons on the record?
Ditto on that Greg. It is only photoshop, and I can’t imagine them not having the ability to scratch at time. Likely the final will have buttons to the side and a smaller platter.
yeah … or read the fucking article. He said activision confirmed the photo’s.
I will definitely be buying that. I love techno of all kinds and it’s pretty much all I listen to lol.
The reason why it is ON the record is because they want to minimalize the size, you scratch with your right hand and play the buttons with your left. If you are left handed then you just turn the turn table around.
