BEATERATOR: ROCKSTAR/TIMBALAND’S MUSICMAKER COMING TO PSP IN SEPTEMBER

We were as surprised as anyone in March to hear that Rockstar’s Beaterator — a music sequencer/tracker based on their original 2005 Flash/web experiment — was back on track for a 2009 release, and curious about Take Two being coy with the platform on which it would eventually land.

And now we know, as Take Two announce that — as it was always intended to be — the project is due for a release in September on the PSP (alongside a digital only release on the PlayStation Network), and drop off the video above.

The only question remaining is the actual mechanisms behind which we’ll be able to share our resulting music: trading custom save files? MP3 exports? But there’s hardly a month left until all will be officially revealed.
