"Beaterator is a new direction for interactive music," said Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games. "What makes Beaterator truly astounding is that literally anyone can be up and making music within minutes."
"My partnership with Rockstar Games has resulted in something amazing," said Grammy Award-winning producer, Timbaland. "Beaterator puts studio-quality production tools in your pocket, and makes them easy enough for anyone to use."
Beaterator is a professional-level, portable studio that guides users through the process of constructing beats and songs with thousands of loops and sounds made by both Timbaland and Rockstar. Jam in Live Play mode with genre-specific templates, or jump into Song Crafter to compose original drum beats, melodies, and even record vocals. No matter the skill level, Beaterator puts the power to make studio-quality music at peoples' fingertips in a format that's portable, accessible and fun.
Beaterator has received outstanding press across the board: USA Today called Beaterator "a powerful, portable music studio for your back pocket." Wired says Beaterator "teaches children ( and adults ) the fundamentals of song-crafting by removing the sense of intimidation" around music creation. Top digital music site, CreateDigitalMusic claims Beaterator "could be a revelation." MTV exclaimed that Beaterator is "one of the most interesting titles coming to the PSP this year." Gaming site, Kotaku raves "Beaterator is digital music creation made easier." GameSpy elaborated, stating "the difference between Beaterator and these rhythm/music games is that here you're creating music, not imitating it."
Beaterator is rated E for Everyone by the ESRB and will also be available later this fall on the iPhone and iPod® touch. For more information, log onto www.rockstargames.com/beaterator/
