First 10 minutes or so of Brutal Legend
Avec commentary from Tim Schafer I'm not Jack Black's biggest fan but neither am I down on him as much as some people. This looks like it might be the perfect thing for him. Black + Schafer + metal = WIN ![]() |

I've heard so much about this game, yet I have no idea of what it is.

Metal porn.
I kept hearing people slap it with labels like "brilliant" and "innovative," but the fact is, it appears to be neither. I've been kinda withholding judgement until now, but the video leaves me unable to find anything of merit. |

Tim Schafer is awesome
That vid already makes me want to choke Jack Black though. might see if I can get the German version if it has English subtitles. |

However, anyone calling it innovative is a bit...strange. It will be a mishmash of different free roaming game types. But it'll also be better written than 90% of the games out there thanks to Schafer and co. |

It's the opening of the game. Which kind of shows that it's nothing more than a mishmash of old game types. Featuring an annoying twat who can't act (well, maybe he can't, be he hasn't) and what looks like it will be repetitive gameplay.

I agree. Attempted to go through the demo something like three times now before getting interrupted. But have no problems picking back up from the start, and trying again. Definitely give it a rent later on.

KISS has a song in this? I may actually have to look into what this game is all about.

It's actually a fun game guys. Plus it has 8 player multiplayer so it's pretty kickass. Plus you get to kill emo kids. How can a game get any better??

More KISS songs on the soundtrack is about all I can think of.
Truthfully, everytime I see a commercial it looks fun, but I just never do the research on it to see what it's about or see what the reviews are. Kind of like with Borderlands, I saw the commercial on it the other day and it looked awesome, but nothing more than that. |

Nah it was a joke, like I said earlier the commercials made it look semi interesting so I'll look into how good it is.

I wasnt really sure if I wanted to get the game untill I played the demo a few weeks back. I fell in love with it. Havnt had a chance to play it yet thanks to a new baby and my wifes mom popping in for a few weeks. But hopefully I will be able to sit down with it soon.

Same here. It looks glitchy and awkward. My friend swears to me that it's awesome though but, he's in a metal band.

The cast involved (that aren't purely from the metal world) give me hope that it will have a lot of personality. Might give it a rent. It seems like a game one of my mates will pick up, test play for me, and then I can either borrow it or buy it myself.

So far I've recognized Kyle Gass, Tim mother fucking Curry, Ozzy Osbourne, Lemmy from Motorhead, and that's it so far. I know I've heard the voice for Lita before but can't figure out where.

Was gonna get this on release but the RTS parts have really put me off, shame as I really enjoyed the demo.

I'm not really huge into RTS but they don't play that big a part. I think there's about 5-6 of them through the course of the story. I ended up missing some of the unlocks that give your team stat buffs/opposition team debuffs i.e. made it stupidly hard for myself, managed to make it through them though. Plus you can actually get involved on the ground yourself if you're so inclined, it's a minor thing but it helps. |

It's not an RTS in itself, but it does include RTS elements called stage battles. So in truth, it's an action game with RTS segments, only a few of them at that. Granted the online is only an RTS, but still.

Probably my least favorite Tim Schafer game. Wasn't a big fan of the combat, and I don't plan on playing any multiplayer. But I was definitely missing some guitar solos and did very few double team attacks, so I wasn't playing the game very well either.
But after Act I, I lost most sense of the humor. My only real exceptions would be the characters you met through the side missions (which, unfortunately, were the same four or five side missions over and over). |

I only have 2 missions left, and I am not looking forward to playing them. I absolutely HATE the RTS aspect.

I have still yet to play this. Been playing Infamous and was going to go to this next but since then Ive picked up Smackdown. This may be one of those games that stay in the wrapping for a good half a year before I play it.
Atleast its not one of the few games ive had that ive had for over 2 years and never opened. |
