Beaterator represents a challenging diversification for Rockstar, who perhaps know more about beating people up. Having said that, this pint-sized music creation title sure packs a punch.

A whole new storyline packs a massive punch and is excellent value for money! It seems that Rockstar keep surprising us and perfecting their art.
