[Multiplatform] Brütal Legend: YOU CAN'T KILL THE METAL. METAL WILL LIVE ON.

Hopefully Dio's fan club will rally a large and loud boycott for the game so it gets more attention and curious people buying it.

How ya doing, buddy?

Dio will become an expansion pack.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I'm good with it.



Hexxus is fucking metal.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Tim Curry's most metal incarnation is clearly Darkness from Legend:



What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

WE SALUTE YOU OUR HALF-INFLATED DARK LORD.

Tim Curry is so metal midgets in hobbit costumes dance around the tiny little versions of Stonehenge that spring up where his feet fall when he walks.

FELIPE NO

Yeah, ok.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Come on, don't tell me you wouldn't want to see chessy-ass effects like that in a video game about heavy metal.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I like this Tim Curry.

How ya doing, buddy?

So guys, I found this AWESOME video that basically sold me on getting the game (As If I wasn't interested already, but yeah): Tim Schafer takes us through the first 17 minutes of the game more or less, running commentary of sorts as a preview of what to expect in actual gameplay. Because it IS actual gameplay being featured.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

The soundtrack. In Rubic's Cube.

How ya doing, buddy?

That's a huge fucking soundtrack and it's hugely awesome. It has all the greats like Judas Priest, Ozzy, Motörhead, etc. and still found space for some old school obscure monsters like Rotting Christ and Carcass. Best part though: MANOWAR AND TESTAMENT ARE ON THE SOUNDTRACK.

I preordered mine weeks ago so I'm really just killing time until this game is released.

I wasn't aware they were taking pre-orders on the game yet. I guess I should get on that. Amazing fucking soundtrack listing too.

They've been taking pre-orders for months now at GameStop; it's where I got mine, at least.

I guess the facepalm inducing lawsuit distracted me. At least its finally over with and no more unnecessary obstacles stand in the way.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Wait, what.

I'd heard that Activision dropped it because it had no potential for a string of sequels, but that's a whole new level of retarded if true. Not everything dealing with rock can be shoveled into Guitar Hero.

I think that Brütal Legend is going to be the one of the best games of the year 2009

I was speaking idiomatically.

The fuck is this about? Is it because I pre-ordered the game?

How ya doing, buddy?

I think it might be because people around here hate Gamestop, where as I just see the store as a place to get games from *shrug*

"Preorder" + "Gamestop" = automatic diss. A game as big as this and you're preordering it at Gamestop? That's grounds for deportation.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Yeah, what Nutty said. I figured it was pretty self-explanatory. Besides, does one really need to announce that Gamestop is taking pre-orders for something? I could walk into mine right now and put down $5 on Madden 2015.

Now if this was some small release that you'd be lucky to find anywhere else, like an SMT game, then this would be excusable.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yes, GameStop is a shit store, but how many other stores actually offer preorders (along with the bonuses that GS offers along with them)? The only major ones I can think of are Game Crazy and Best Buy, which both offer the game at the same price and usually have worse (if any) bonuses. If you're gonna get the game as soon as it releases and you're willing to pay full price, then you might as well preorder from GS.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Let's not go down this road and turn this thread into yet another one about why Gamestop sucks. I'm sure we all have horror stories, and if not then you're one lucky bastard.

For the sake of answering Rock's post, so many stores have sales on new games within the first week or two of their release that it's almost a waste of money to pre-order a game barring some sort of pre-order bonus. Without something cool like that 20th anniversary soundtrack that came with Castlevania: PoR I only go as a last resort these days since I got fed up with being lectured like a child for either not pre-ordering the game or not wanting to put down money on something else while picking up my pre-order.

How ya doing, buddy?
