Brutal Legend

[Saskwach]

Who's excited about this, the upcoming game of rock and roll action-adventure by Tim Schafer? Axes, "axes", blood and violence, hot rods pumping out fossil fuels willfully, headbangers, one bad ass Jack Black roadie, bosses voiced by big metal stars, Tim Schafer comedy, groupies, the list goes on.
To sum up, I'm going to badly paraphrase Tim Schafer: "You might hate Brutal Legend but only if you don't like metal and hot rods and blood and action and humour and fun."

Yeah, this game looks amazing, I can't wait for it.

Dude, it's made by Tim-fucking-Schafer. What's not to look forward about?

Dude, it's made by Tim-fucking-Schafer.

That pretty much sums up everything right there. Unless the game gets absolutely atrocious reviews, were getting it. And even still if it does get horrific reviews.

That just made my 08 list. It may well replace Far Cry 2. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

After recently playing Pyschonauts(and enjoying the hell out of it), I say Bring it on!

 

[sammyfreak]

They also have members from Judas Priest on the cast! Not that i still like Heavy Metal, but Brütal Legend will be the very core of awesomeness.

 

[Quistnix]

Dude, it's made by Tim-fucking-Schafer.

That's pretty much it. Oh, and Tenacious D is fun.

 

[Frybird]

Jack Black may be a bit of a sellout from time to time, but in a heavy metal themed Game, i cannot imagine a better lead voice.

Yes, i am too extremely excited about the game. Even when you ignore that it's being made by Tim Schaefer, it still has Hot Rods, a Metal Soundtrack and RONNIE JAMES DIO! \m/

 

[Tacroy]

My god.

This looks like it's basically Metalocalypse: The Game.

I can't wait to play it.

Who wants to bet somewhere they throw in a vague joke reference to Guitar Hero?

I'm just guessing here, but I'm fairly certain this is going to be an M game.

Dude, it's made by Tim-fucking-Schafer.

well said
this is a MUST have.

 

[sammyfreak]

I'm just guessing here, but I'm fairly certain this is going to be an M game.

Hardly, its gonna be rated A for Awesome.

 

[ThaBenMan]

I just pre-ordered it yesterday!

 

[Saskwach]

I just pre-ordered it yesterday!

Good for you ThaBenMan. I only hope that Tim Schaeffer doesn't choose now to release his first bad game. That'd really mess up the post pre-order glow.
...
Sorry about that, I was being delusional. What did I just say?

 

[ThaBenMan]

*sticks fingers in ears* LALALALAAA, cant hear you!

Seriously though, I've always had a pretty good pre-release feel for games. I've never pre-ordered a game that I was disappointed in. So hopefully that will be the case here!

I was excited until I found out Jack Black was voicing the main character.

The reason why I play games over watching films at the cinemas is to avoid giving money to these overpaid actors.
