Last friday Tim Schafer was on Jimmy Fallon promoting Brutal Legend. I don’t know about you but the people that seem too be most excited for Brutal Legend are metalheads.

“To make a good metal game it really takes a careful balance of both respect and satire. I really think that this nails them both.”
Too keep it short and sweet; Fuck yes it does. I haven’t had such a shit eating grin on my face about a game in a long time (probably since Psychonauts).

Not that there have been many/enough games based around metal. But really as far as having really engaging game worlds Tim Shaffer is a freaking genius. To make a good metal game it really takes a careful balance of both respect and satire. I really think that this nails them both.

I had a good laugh at the facial expressions of the girl when Eddie was building the car. So far everyone seems to have a lot of personality. As opposed to say, Killzone 2, where it’s hard to remember who your player is or who the dude was who died.

Shame though that the character being done by the voice actor of Raz from Psychonauts died in the opening. The character was sorta annoying, but the voice actor is good.

I’m wondering just how many pills they had to pump Ozzy with to keep him on script.

I don’t see what makes SDF 1.5 any better than SDF classic. They post Sony Quotes as “Industry News”, Youtube videos of some homeless barefoot Mexican guy as “Game Reviews”, and bad photoshop smear campaigns against games that they are afraid of. Well they did get rid of that silly “Definitive Version” tag line.
That’s something, right? Seeing as half the time the “definitive” versions of stuff they get end up having stuff wrong with them.

Do you really think that being biased on a site based on being biased is really all that big of a deal?
