1 - You may or may not like it,
but we should all be happy to see new IP sell well. Congrats to the Brutal Legend guys and Tim Schaefer!

200k is pretty decent, and that does not include Europe, so it did possibly a lot better... hopefully.

Not surprised by the inital sales numbers, but I think the game could be a cult hit instead of a massive new IP.

It's sad because the game is a lot of fun, I've never enjoyed a game so much since the PS3 / 360 release. It is plagued by a low gameplay and a bunch of aliasing, but in terms of chara-design and level-design, it's purely awesome.

It is also sad for EA, that took it from I-want-Brüal-Legend-to-be -a-new-Guitar-Hero Activision and said they would heavily advertise it. Brütal Legend is one of the rare video game ad I saw in France so I don't doubt about EA's will, but I guess gamers don't want new IPs, just more of the same with already existing IPs.

That seems to be all Schafer games. Great characters/story.

I agree, Brutal legend was one of the worst games I have played this generation. It had some funny story lines here and there, but I have no idea how this game is rated over a 6 on Metacritic.

This is going to give Halo 3 & GTA 4 a run for its money for MOST OVERRATED GAME THIS GENERATION. IMO

I definitely regret buying this awful RTS game.

I didn't care for the demo but it's good to see developers thinking outside of the box. That I give them props for. Who knows maybe one day I'll try it out. The gameplay just seemed too simple IMO but I could dead wrong, I did only play the demo.

11 - Brutal Legend was awesome!
Wow, some of you knuckleheads that bash on this game from only playing the demo are pretty weak! Game was incredible. I played it to the end and its alot better than most games out there. Its different and the music is awesome! Graphics are great as well as the gameplay. Its no wonder it scored very high in the ratings. You kids have no idea what youre talking about.

This is a good unique game in a sea of sameness in the game world. Game play is a bit uneven, but the sum of all the parts makes it pretty entertaining & enjoyble. The humor, voice acting, story, music, is very cool.
