About This Game

Brütal Legend is an action-adventure that marries visceral action combat with open-world freedom. Set in a universe somewhere between Lord of the Rings and Spinal Tap, it’s a fresh take on the action/driving genre, which in this case is full of imitation cover bands, demons intent on enslaving humanity and Heavy metal tunes. Featuring the talents of comedian, actor and musician, Jack Black as super roadie Eddie Riggs, as well as cameos by some of the biggest names in metal music it's a wild ride in the belly of the beast that is not to be missed by gamers and Metalheads alike.

Included as a free bonus in the PC version of Brütal Legend are both the Hammer of Infinite Fate and Tears of the Hextadon multiplayer map packs.

Story

The vivid and wildly creative world of Brütal Legend is brought to life through a spate of chrome, leather, rocker babes, epic music, fire-breathing/stud-wearing beasts, mountains made of guitar amps, and more. Follow Eddie as he embarks on a tour of epic destruction with an axe, a guitar, and his minions as he commands the power of rock in epic band battles. It’s lighter-flicking awesomeness that will melt your face clean off.

Combat

Brütal Legend’s combat is a combination of classic action slasher and real time strategy mechanics. Melee and ranged combat come from your double-sided broadaxe and demon-slaying, pyrotechnic-creating guitar. Add that 1-2 punch to a guitar solo mechanic that can summon objects, buff your teammates, or cripple your opponents, and you have a deep, gratifying core gameplay combat loop that is fun for the hardcore and accessible for the casual. On top of that, players will journey from Roadie to Rock God by commanding legions of metalheads into Brütal Victory and sending troops charging into battle.

A Streaming Open World

Brütal Legend gives you the freedom to walk, drive, or fly anywhere in a fully streaming open world whose art style is inspired by some of the most iconic and hilariously rad metal album covers ever created. Every vista in the beautiful universe of Brütal Legend looks like it was pulled from a Frank Frazetta painting.

Packed With Cameos and Voice Talent

Brütal Legend is full of cameos from gods of metal like Lemmy Kilmister, Rob Halford, Lita Ford, and many, many others. It has a MASSIVE metal soundtrack from every era of metal music: 1970’s classic metal to 1980’s hair metal to the scarier cousins of 1990’s metal. And of course, Jack Black pays the ultimate homage to metal as Eddie the Roadie, continuing the theme from the work of his band, Tenacious D and his previous films like School of Rock and High Fidelity.

Multiplayer Mayhem

4v4 "skirmish" multiplayer marries action combat with a strategic unit-control mechanic. As the leader of one of the factions in the game, the player will direct his armies in a Battle of the Bands where the trophy is survival. Brütal Legend’s multiplayer is online-enabled, so you can conquer your friends online (broadband connection required for online play).

Music

The music in Brütal Legend is truly massive. Made up of 108 of the most rocking tracks from 75 different bands representing every sub-genre of metal, it is something to experience in and of itself.

It's metal and it's strangest strategy game I ever seen.

It's a 10% of decent but flawed gameplay among 90% of autistic non-content.

The core (or so I though) gameplay is copy-pasted from one of the greatest video games of all times, Sacrifice by Shiny E. You have up to two sides fighting with each other for control of mana- I mean, FAN fountains to destroy your oponent's Altar- I mean the SCENE. Your small armies are controlled via simple commands and supported by your main hero with spells- I mean the SOLOS. It's a great concept really, and Sacrifice pulled it off perectly, of course.
The problem with Brutal Legend is that the devs had not a slightest idea how to build this kind of game. That's probably the reason they decided to cover it up with tons of autistic non-content, but I will get to that in a minute.
The core gameplay is over-simplified and absurdly unbalanced. You don't have to do any real resource management (your fans are generating only from the fan booths, there are no real base mana units) and from a variety of units, only few are relevant (among all three armies). And even they don't matter, since you have absolutely overpowered guitar solos who can destroy everything around you after a short QTE. It's decent enough for a few fights, but after you discover that the best way is to bait all your enemies into one spot and cast one AoE attack which will take all of them, there's suddenly no challenge, even vs the highest difficulty level. The multiplayer is dead anyway.
But all of above is just a small fraction of the whole game. There are up to 8 (?) stage battles throughout the whole game, which is laughable. The rest of the game consists of autism simulating in an open world area, searching for autism throphies and doing lazy side-quests, while struggling with hell of a driving model and collision issues. There's nothing to add about this part of the game, but at the same time it makes up to 90% of it.

The theme is amazing, but if you want to listen to some music, just open up your Internet browser. If it's this kind of core gameplay you're looking for, just play Sacrifice. This game is not worth it, unfortunately.

Considering that I'm totally not into metal music and that Brütal Legend suffers more than similar games from repetitive mission design and that its RTS elements are too simple, this game was actually a pleasant surprise and lots of fun. I'll miss the Roadie in his Deuce and all his friends.

Knee to the Metal God and bow your head with you horns to the air be are blessed.

Story 8/10
Comedy 10/10
Replayable 8/10
Achievement 100% 4/10

Brutal Legend is a game that I'm glad to replay over on PC, I had play the game when it first came out over on the 360 and completed it and years later I still had to buy it again. The story of a roadie that is sent to a land where music is power and can be used as a weapon. Jack Black comedy shines perfect throughout the game and some of metal music's icons, and now the late Lemmy R.I.P. travel from the cliffs of amps to the the sea of tears.
Its a music lovers dream, putting on shows to battle your emeny with moshpits.

This game, in my opinion, is the symbolism of how metal survived since its creation. Metal vs New Wave, Metal vs Grunge, Metal vs Emo Rock, and always, Metal will triumph. Pretty much how Jack Black's very own Tenacious D has written the song The Metal. The story is amazingly written incorporating everything connected with Heavy Metal. Oh, and if you love puns, this one's great.

Gameplay wise, it took me quite a while to really grasp the elements especially the RTS-esque battles in which I suck by the way, so it is a very subjective matter for me. Combat is challenging and you can expect to die a couple of times. The controls are good, and the open world environments are within the concept of a Heavy Metal world.

And of course, the music and sound effects, sometimes you wouldn't want to get out of the car just so you can finish a song that is playing. Old and new metal artists are available for you to drive with, including Megadeth, Mastodon, Anthrax, etc.

This game is very enjoyable and you can expect to have a very good time head bangin',killing demons, emos, and 80's glam-style enemies, road tripping and just about anything you can do in this game. Highly recommended especially if you enjoy the metal music genre.

Took the guitar and went on journey:Wing

Brutal Legend, woah man, where to start...
First of all - if you are a fan of rock/metal music or/and RTS/Action games - don't think, just get it.
Story is about Eddie Riggs, Roadie, who is teleported into other world after blood spills on his belt, and from there... his journey begins... he meets Ophalia, Lars and Lita, they are trying to liberate humanity but they need an army (Let's just mention that Eddie finds Ophalia when he is trying to escape from the Temple of Ormagöden ), and here's where our Hero comes in handy with his Guitar - In normal world it makes noises, in this world it shoots frickin' Lightning Bolts and Fireballs!
About Music... Oh man... It's pure metal, with over 300 tracks on the playlist (+ around 25 to find in world), unfortunately, OST contains only 12, 12 out of over 300 great tracks!
Characters are memorable, unique, every one of them is awesome!
And the true magic of this game... It has no HUD, you can open map, but there's no mini-map, health bar, etc. Just
you, Deuce, your car, few homies, great music and majestic world!
One more thing if you don't like vulgar language and gore - both of them can be reduced to minimum and you're even asked for that in the beginning of the game

SUMMARY

Gameplay - 9/10 - It's great, action-tactic packed game, if you can get it on promotion (1,5€/$), JUST GET IT!
Audio - 20/10 - Come on, what were you expecting, THERE'S OVER 300 TRACKS IN GAME! MAAAAAAN!
Graphics - 8/10 - Nice, pretty, bloody
Difficulty - 6/10 (On Normal difficulty) - If you're casual to RTS games, or you suck at them... well... you'll have a hard time playing this one
OVERALL - 9/10 - It's one of those games when where you start to play, you just can't stop, something is pushing you further and further, until you reach the end of the game, music is GREAT, gameplay is GREAT, world is AWESOME, characters are GREAT - If I should describe this game with one word, it would be AWESOME!
