I agree, Scratch is a superior product.

The music "mashup" style gameplay and the cheaply made controller with buttons on the turntable etc... is why DJ H*** failed in the eyes of the consumer. The display model of the DJ H*** controller at my local Best Buy was of poor quality and was broken. I noticed how consumers were walking by pointing out how bad the game was. It was no suprise to me to see a bunch unsold on the shelves.

Scratch, on the other hand offers superior gameplay and replay value and focuses on creativity, as opposed to pre-recorded 'scratches'.

The ability for consumers to import samples using usb mic is a plus. The controller of Scratch is top notch and Numark is a big name in the music industry which will undoubtedly help sales.

I believe some consumers are simply fed up with Activision and their unsavory business practices and are rooting for the underdog (Scratch) to be the winner.

I hope Genius Products will provide some updates soon for the development and release of Scratch, as I am sure many are getting impatient.

DJ H*** has poor sales because the game is not really that good, plain and simple. Scratch, on the other hand, will be a winner as it has all the ingredients for success imo.
