#BRUTAL LEGEND SONG LIST FULL#

One game was one of the greatest gaming experiences I've had since I first played through Metal Gear Solid 2, the other was yet another successfull Tim Schafer game. I played on default difficulty (not the easiest or the hardest - which is obviously called 'brütal'). There are parts of the game that I wouldn't exactly call casual-gamer friendly (the RTS elements are typically not something a casual gamer would enjoy, or even care about getting into), but they were relatively well done and I manage toughest battles fairly easily after maximum three tries - and I absolutely suck at them. Especially if you like the 70's and 80's rock and metal bands. Ye, completed the game yesterday (well, the story part of it at least), and while I'd consider Uncharted 2 to be the first system seller of the generation of the two HD consoles, Brütal Legend is surely a good candidate for a christmas present as well. Instead this is as uncool or should I say Metal as it probably gets - with many a name a riddle for today's video game audience to solve. Granted, they're there, but this being a fairly mainstream video game still, I was expecting a tracklist that is merely meant to boost the sales of the game - with the odd Linkin Park Bizkit cover of a Metallica song sneaking in there. This is his hommage to Metal more than anything, and I was halfway expecting this list to be filled with the usual suspects. * Skeletonwitch - Soul Thrashing Black SorceryĮmperor?! Man, if the man picked this score himself he hasn't lost anything. * Prong - Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck * Michael Schenker - Group Assault Attack * Judas Priest - The Hellion/Electric Eye * In Flames - Goliaths Disarm Their Davids * Dragonforce - Through the Fire and Flames * Dimmu Borgir - Progenies of the Great Apocalypse * Dark Tranquility - Cathode Ray Sunshine * Crimson Glory - Queen of the Masquerade * Brocas Helm - Drink the Blood of the Priest * Black Sabbath - Symptom of the Universe * Bishop of Hexen - The Somber Grounds of Truth Just take a look at the official soundtrack: I'll go play Tales of Monkey Island instead of Brutal Legend. I wish you the best for Brutal Legend and all your future games. I don't want to endure a game just to follow the story anymore (especially in a setting that is not so appealing to me). Grim Fandango control & camera could be better.

Full Throttle's arcade sequence is subpar. Tim's game is always brilliantly written but he always struggled with the mechanic. This seems apparent in 4-5 different unpolished gameplay mechanics in Brutal Legend. But as a game designer, he seems to be held back by the 'gameplay' part. Tim Schafer for me is a great writer and creative director. Finally, adding RTS gameplay element was a deal breaker for me. It is Shrek-like humor compared to Pixar-like humor of his previous efforts. I felt like there are inside jokes for metal fans only. The dialogs in the demo aren't all that funny. The humors in these games do not need any pop culture references. Because of that, I endure through the game eventhough the gameplay mechanic is pretty weak and the end boss is so frustrating. Psychonauts : I love the imaginative multiverses presented by each character. Glottis is one of the most memorable sidekick ever in a game I was immersed in the noir universe he created. It inspired me to learn more about US history than any textbook ever will. I'd never forget solving a puzzle by adding vacuum cleaner in the constitution to solve puzzles 200 years later. Day of the tentacle : Clever temporal puzzles and gameplay. Secret of Monkey Island : Unique settings (at the time), witty dialogs, memorable characters and mind bending puzzles. All of previous Tim Schafer games have unique, undeniable timeless charms about them. But after playing demo of Brutal Legend and see reviews/video clips from the game, I've decided to skip Brutal Legend.

I have played every Tim Schafer game and love all of them.
