Can't afford a new set of 1200's but wanna be a mac daddy turntablist? Well, get ready to go buy a Sony Playstation if you don't have one already, before Konami releases their game, "Beatmania 2nd Mix". Beatmania is already a hit arcade game in Japan, in which a player has to scratch to dance music using virtual turntables and a mixer for a crowd reaction. In two player mode, two aspiring Djs can duke it out, Battle style. The Playstation release is yet to be announced, but will feature a special controller (probably a mini turntable pad). The arcade version is expected to be shown at the bi-annual Amusement Showcase International show. So, American arcades may sport the full version as well. Slipmats not included. I wonder if the rave nazi cops of the United $tates Gestapo, Inc. will be harassing innocent arcades now that dance music has invaded them. bliss
