Whenever I play Rock Band, I always use my 360 Guitar Hero 2 controller. Reasons include a functional strum bar, a solid design, and consistent functionality. That's a nice thing about the Rock Band/Guitar Hero divide, for as long as they undercut each other, those mics, drums and guitars are going to work together, by and large.
Well, I had a chance to speak with the Creative Director of DJ Hero, FreeStyleGames's Jamie Jackson, and I asked him about his game's proprietary controller. DJ Hero plays very unique, after all. Would his turntable be able to work with other games in the future, much like Guitar Hero/Rock Band?
"No," he says, after a short pause. "DJ Hero is DJ Hero. If someone needed to use our controller, then they would basically have to rip our game off."
Of course, to be fair, the two DJ games currently announced, DJ Hero and Scratch: The Ultimate DJ, are very different products, with very little shared between the two. It would be nice to not have to buy a whole new slew of peripherals, however, which has the potential to limit sales for both games.

Wow. I have a hunch they are making a subtle jab at Rock Band here, though it's a stretch.
But hey, it's activision. I HATE YOU GUYS! YOU IMPLIED AN INSULT TO ROCK BAND!
Also, why don't we ever hear anything about Scratch on this site? I'm really interested in that non-activision game. :P
Because it's from a smaller studio and it has a 2010 release date so it's no rush.
Except that Rock Band isn't a ripoff of Guitar Hero. But I'm glad they think so, sounds like they are just jealous to me.
I doubt that they're jealous; all Guitar Hero has consistently had the sales edge over Rock Band. Hell, all the hey have to do is wait, copy Rock Band's new additions, then release and outsell them.
Shadow has 3 i's as in Shadow from Final Fantasy III (it's really VI, but that's his fault).
I'm hoping I beat him to it here....
I don't think it was an implied jab at Rock Band, since Harmonix MADE the "Hero" brand.
Because if we learned from anything from the past, this and Scratch will not be the only DJ games coming to market. Also, look at the support for drums and guitars in the Xbox Indie Games network. Someone, somewhere, will want to use this controller for something other than DJ Hero.
Also, nothing touches Daft Punk. NOTHING.
But seriously, I could see activision saying that. Especially since they blab about how their 10,000 iterations of GH outsell the grand total of three (real) Rock Band games. Woo.
And funnily enough, I couldn't argue.
Uhh, yeah. What else would it be? Is it a bad thing that it is?
I would imagine the controller will be used in other Hero products, so of course there'll be cross game compatability, but seriously Ben, think through the implications of making a big deal about this - it's a non issue, completely.
