About
Scratch: The Ultimate DJ was a music video game announced by Genius Products in 2008. Similarly to Konami's Beatmania series, it would have employed a specialized turntable controller (called the "Scratch Deck"), which would have allowed the player to follow along to the rhythm game while simulating common DJ techniques, such as scratching.
The game had been held up in legal action between publisher Genius Products and former developer 7 Studios. A replacement developer, Bedlam Games had been announced following the lawsuit and the source code was returned to Genius as per a legal order.
