During the rhythm gaming boom in the early 2000s, it seemed like every video game company was coming up with their own music related game. Many games would try to brand themselves as “simulations” of real instruments but few actually tried to go beyond instrument-like controls, Sega’s Crackin’ DJ breaks that mold.
Released in 2000, Crackin’ DJ has you using 2 turntables and a crossfader to follow on screen cues that result in song remixes. Songs vary from originals exclusive to the game to remixes of classic Sega game tunes. What makes the game stand out from other DJ games is the focus on turntable scratching and crossfading over hitting arbitrary buttons to play samples. This results in an experience that more accurately represents actual DJing while also being fun to play skillfully and entertaining to watch others play.
