Brutal Lege - Playstation 3

Basically, if you want my review in a nutshell, I think that if you are a fan of heavy metal, comedy, and video games, you have no excuse NOT to buy Brutal Legend. The characters, world, and soundtrack are ALL top notch and worth full price alone. This is because they are above and beyond what you will typically find in most video games, and pleasantly enough,much better than any Jack Black movie. So, expect to have laughed, headbanged, and stood in awe of the creative environments many times over before it is completed. That is why I loved it and the reason why I will recommend it to friends, not what is holding the game back. What really does, however, is the relatively short length and flawed gameplay. Maybe I have been spoiled by better action games but the regular fighting mechanics are not very tight or fun, just serviceable. The end result was desiring to finish these stages quickly with incredibly powerful guitar solos, rather than relish in the enemies' bloodshed during the heat of combat. Neither are the totally unexpected RTS portions of the game that amazing, because if you've never played the genre before, like me, they are not explained as well as they should be and you only get the hang of it by the last few battles. Of course, by then, it is fun enough that you will wish there was more because the game is only about 7-8 hours long, assuming you do a good portion of the side missions. Overall, though, this is a fantastic game with lots of potential to achieve greatness if a franchise is ever established, which should explain my title. The aforementioned problems can be fixed; the driving, which I have no problem with, could be made to be more twisted-metal-like; we could get more heavy metal stars like Dave Mustaine, Brendon Small, or Shagrath into the game; and maybe, just MAYBE, we can feature some Iron Maiden, Metallica, and Arch Enemy on the soundtrack. Opeth is unlikely but would also kick ass, and even if a sequel is more of the same it will still be good, since it seems like the world is rich enough to support many future adventures. The problem is, this didn't sell nearly as well as the developer had hoped and was left in the dust in favor of less original, more of the same sequels like Call of Duty and non-games like Wii Fit. We'll need to do all we can to change that, so buy this game new if you haven't, spread the word and hopefully we can make this into a cult hit.

Great graphics, fun and challenging gameplay. Awesome to hear Ozzy’s voice!

I'm not a gamer, per se, so I'm not really qualified to comment on the particulars of the game. This was a gift for my husband, who was itching to get the full version after trying the demo. Suffice to say, the man is nuts for it. He LOVES it! He's even said it may be the best game he's ever played (as in, his "most favorite"; he may have played others that were technically better but, then, what do I know?). What's cool is that his non-gaming wife can sit in the same room while he plays it for hours on end. I love Jack Black so it's fun to watch and hear this character he's created. I'm also a fan of the music in the game's soundtrack. There's a good variety of rock to listen to, from hard to almost-hardest. Finally, I love that there's a lot of humor interjected into the story. I crack up over the gang of big guys who follow Jack's character around, constantly air-banging their heads! (I used to know some people who were alarmingly similar, which makes it all the funnier.) I would recommend it based on watching hubby have nonstop fun, as well as for having a storyline and style that makes it entertaining for onlookers. I'm also pleased to say that I had a flawless experience with the shipping; this was the first time I ever used 1-day ("overnight?") delivery and it arrived on time without a hitch.

I play this game with my girlfriend and our boy(10) . It may be a little violent and the cursing is blatant, but you can bleep the cursing (Which adds to the fun)and you can turn off blood, which only adds to the myth that kids who see blood in video games will become blood thirsty,(so you know, I left it on!)I am not a fan of the upside-down pentagrams used as GPS mission checkpoints. All that being said, the game is amazing. The sound track is back to back classic heavy metal infused with the game fighting. The game itself looks like you are in a TOOL video mixed a little with Camelot lore and a little bit of Outlaw motorcycle madness. You have two weapons an ax and guitar. After a few hours the ax turn into mostly show, and the guitar is like a magic wand that uses solos to dispel monsters and baddies. There are boss-fights with platformer-game elements built in, but this is more like an open world adventure than like a Mario. There are also RTS elements, but will not give you anymore details, to prevent spoilers. There are several rock-star cameos. if you love heavy metal then you simply need to enjoy a game built for you. This game should not be missed by anyone. I purchased it for 20 dollars right here from amazon. I got plenty of value out of it. I hope there is a sequel, and would grab it up, even with a price north of 20 dollars.

パッケージからも分かるようにヘヴィ・メタルが主軸のゲームです。 その手の音楽が好きな人には思い切りオススメ出来ますがそうでない/逆に嫌いな人には思い切りオススメしません。 B級っぽく見えますが中身は中々しっかりと作られています。 以下感想を箇条書にしていきます。 〇どこもかしこもメタルの嵐。主人公はメタラー。仲間もメタラー、敵もメタラー。世界もメタル。武器もメタル。そして勿論音楽もメタル。好きな人には堪らないでしょう。 〇「わかってらっしゃる」選曲。EAだからこそ出来たであろう超豪華な曲の数々(やはりメタリカはいないですが)。敵陣との闘いではBGMにマノウォーがかかり、車(細かくカスタム可能)に跨がればモータヘッドやジューダスがかかる。制作者の中にメタラーがいるんしょうね、どの曲が何に似合うかを熟知しています。 〇仲間に有名人がいます。よく見てみて下さい。聞き覚えのある声や見覚えのある顔が出てきます。まあ全員個性が強すぎて一発でわかりますが(笑) ×もう少し練って欲しかったゲーム性。このゲームにはアクションパートのようなものともう一つ、RTSパートのようなものがあります。双方悪いわけではないのですが、なんというか淡泊です。 ×敵が強い……。これはプレイヤーによっても変わると思いますが、RTS時の敵が中々手強いです。普段RTSをやらない人は苦労必至です。 ×完全に一部の層にしかウケない。なにもかもがメタルに興味がないと楽しめません。その点究極の不親切ゲームと言えるかもです。 ×オープンワールドという特性を活かしきれていない。移動する時に面倒なだけで、言ってしまうと必要性がほぼ無いです。 その他特徴 ・RTS時に翼が生え飛べるようになる・曲は古参メタル中心で近年のコア系ニュースクールはほぼ無い・RTSは非本格的

Um crime tão pouca gente saber da existência dessa obra de arte! Um clássico para a coleção.

Tim Shafer is like the Kevin Smith of video games. He makes great stuff, that fans will blindly pick up and try to tell everyone else that it is the best thing ever. Well I am one of those fans, but I will try to be as fair as possible. This game is unlike anything you have ever played. If you tried the demo, you will quickly find that it didn't represent the actual game very well. The demo was fun and gave the impression that you were playing an action/fighting game with heavy metal themes, driving, and the comedy of Jack Black. Well that is all fair, but they didn't show you the real-time strategy moments that dominate this game. You will take control of countless head banger in your quest. You will learn to command and lead your armies into battle, and honestly as someone who doesn't like RTS games, this game is so much fun. Of course anyone who has read any of my previous reviews know, I love metal, all metal, and Jack Black. So this game really speaks to me. There are a bunch of guest characters includin Lemmy from Motorhead, and Ozzy, plus a few more. The soundtrack is great, and the enemies will make you laugh if you lived through the 80's. The online is pure RTS with a metal theme. You build your hoard and try to destroy your enemy's stage. That's right, you are fighting to be the only team able to hold a concert. It is all done so well, that even the offline battles against the AI is fun. If you like Tenacious D, Jack Black, Heavy Metal, or anything by Tim Shafer, then you owe it to yourself to get this game. It is great quality, and will last you a long time.

Estaba dudoso que el juego fuera primera edicion y se encontrara nuevo, pero me sorprendio 15/10 de escuela del rock hasta tenacius D

このゲーム程“売れるか?”を無視したゲームを個人的に知らない(笑) 他の方のレビューを見てなんとぶっ飛んだゲームなんだろうと迷わず購入。 自分はデスからメロスピまでヘビロテなメタラーなのでツボ(≧∇≦)しかもオジー…(ー ー;) とまぁかなりピンポイントなゲームだと思ってるんですが、以外とメタル無知な友人すらも面白いと言ってました。 確かに音楽とか登場人物とか雰囲気が“知ってる人”には分かるだけで、別に知らなくても普通にオープンワールドアクションゲームとして愉しめるのかも^_^; ただし、画質がPS2並なんで次世代機として期待はしないほうが無難。 まぁそれもまたメタルな世界として好き者にはたまらんでしょう('・Д・)」
