Brutal Legend (MyGaming review)

ok 2 little problems i have with the review.... there wasn't any percentage rating and it doesnt show availability for which platforms you can purchase this on... however this was a great review... I guess i will buy this but not quite yet.
 
Its a nice play, just not worth the $. Wait for a bargin bin version or pre-played and it will be money well spent.

Yeh im not amped to get it but i will eventually get it from like Zaps or something on PS3 if its available on that console :)
 
well i must be not stupid then :D as i went up the tower thing myself and re-arranged it out of curiosity. not to mention- seriously it was not that hard to walk up the dragon and press a few buttons till it went unenslaved. only part which i didn't just get off the bat was raising the things out of the ground where the red flowers are, but that was about it. yes sure its tad bit expensive, but i've found it seriously entertaining.

then again if you don't like metal it will not be your game as the whole game is metal themed and it might put your off. definitely getting the sountrack as it hits, it is going to be !@#R awesome.

i would rate it 7/10 imho.
metacritic 82/83

Hehe. The music is Awesome and im a big metal head so i loved the feel of the world. Just felt as a game it had some short cummings. The huge sound track is a bit waisted if the music changes everytime u get in and out of ur car. As for the lack of information, im not spoon feed the player everything but at least introduce the player to the different elements properly. I remember 1 thing that was stucking out of the ground and if you inspect it, it says "it looks like something wants to come out" but thats it, you never find out what it is. Like i put in my score, 7.5.

There is a design flaw in there somewhere...:rolleyes: Why not just have the music playing? How about that section where Through the fire and the flame plays as you escape from LionWhites pleasure palace? Song is more than 7 minutes long but the chase doesn't even take the song to the half way mark.
But yeah. Entertaining but not legendary.

I tried really hard to be positive the first draft was just too damn negative and i actually liked the game, but from a review standpoint.. was a tough one.
 
Sorry guys, the score sheet got lost somehow. It has to do with the new system methinks, we are still ironing out bugs. Have refreshed and the scores etc are up.

well later on you get the mouth of metal and that continues the song even if you hop out of the car. but i know what you mean with it cuts off.

Understandable. People say change is as good as a holiday... i say change makes u want a holiday coz you have to sort out all the little kinks.

Lol Yes but jump back in your car... and the music changes. So you have to either be in or out.
 
I should beat whoever edited this with rocks. There are spelling mistakes (YOU MISSPELLED TIM SCHAFER :O) and a lot of random initial capitals that have no business being there. :<
 
I found this game very disappointing, and extremely underwhelming.

The idea was a total hit with me - A game set in a Heavy Metal inspired universe with Jack Black voicing Eddie Riggs. It screamed of awesome! Oh well, the game ended up being a very vague experience with no real explanation of the plot and the world as a whole.

The Strategy type battles however were real fun. It felt akin to games like Sacrifice and Giants Citizen Kabuto, which is a pretty rare gaming experience, at least in my books. However the side missions felt tacked on and were repetitive in a bad way.

Azimuth you stroppy git, how dare you.

Hehe, yea that was me. I Dropped the ball on that one a bit :o

Not sure how so many errors slipped through. Have reedited, please let me know if I missed anything (I'm sure you will find something).
