Beaterator Review (PSP)

Beaterator is not so much a game as it is an electronic music-creation tool complete with loops and samples from Timbaland himself. As such, there is very little to compare it to, especially on handhelds, making it hard to review. If the criterion used to judge it is purely the power of it as an “instrument” then it is a very impressive piece of software. If the criterion used is just how much fun there is to be had with it for a casual music tinkerer then it doesn’t quite match up to the Korg DS-10 on the Nintendo DS - simply because while it is more powerful, it is also more difficult to create new music with Beaterator than with the Korg simulator.
