GrE writes, "Coming from the mind of Tim Schafer and Double Fine Productions, Brutal Legend is a 3rd person Action/Metal adventure. Rich in combat, imagery and storytelling, Brutal Legend looks to deliver lighter-flicking fun that, in the words of the developer, "is sure to melt your face clean off." Take a peak at all Brutal Legend has to offer, we'll keep the melting of faces for the full review."
Prepare to headbang your way into glory with these metal-infused games. You'll find yourself flipping your hair in pure excitement.
The Humble Day of the Devs Bundle 2022 just launched. It includes sixteen items including Psychonauts, Brutal Legend, Broken Age, and more.
The world of Brutal Legend looks like something a 14 year-old metal head would draw on their notebook while not paying attention.
Liked the aesthetic, tone, humor, and action combat.
Didn't care for the RTS elements.
Never cared to finish it.
PS360 gen was special, then again it was still the mid 2000s. Everything went to shite in the teens
I think that was the breaker for Doublefine's creative ambitions and their mixing of genres (which was getting kinda stale). It was a nice to look at but it was more of a tribute to the many things Tim loves, was influenced by and has great admiration for....but the forced RTS stuff was like a drinking buddy's "great idea" that never should have come to light. The game seemed a lot more vast, but it ended pretty quickly too. And Jack Black. As much as I don't care for him as an actor (annoying and requires constant attention), this was absolutely made with him in mind and it worked. I mean come on, Tenacious D? For as Metal as this game was trying to be, even comically, it did little more than meow.
Any game with Tim Schafer's name on it has my undivided attention.
Game looks pretty cool, I like the fact that Jack Black is in it
I'm ALL for Metal becoming a gaming genre. lol, awesome
Also, the story seems a little hokey for my taste, but I guess it has to be to believe a dude in a metal band would actually accomplish saving the world...
But I'm still totally gonna buy it!
what a waste of a game programmers time
