I hate to say it, but I told you so. I am of course talking to Activision and their DJ Hero game which has failed to sell. Released this week, Lego Batman (a year old) sold more copies off the shelves than DJ Hero. Check the UK Sales Chart here.
Roping in DJ Shadow to give the game credibilty didn't obviously help it shift more copies. IMO : The target auidence of someone with decent DJ skills and who likes a bit of Hip Hop, is not going to invest in a game this expensive. They rather be spending their money on real vinyl and doing it for rizzle (for real) The achievements are also too skill based on hard and expert, so no casual gamer wants it. You get one point for completing your first mix. Why bother?
