    The Most Metal Game Ever 0

    Just to clearly depict my extreme bias towards this game I will preface my review by stating that Brütal Legend is my game of the year for 09. Yeah, it's like that.  So why no perfect 5 star rating? Because if it were that good I would still be playing it right now rather than writing about it. No, seriously, the game isn't perfect, but I consider any quibbles with the game to be just that, quibbles. Screw quibbles, screw them to a rotting wall of flesh with a massive rusty screw through each ey...

    Brutal Legend Brutal Legend is the game that could not decide what it wanted to be. When you begin the game it leads you to believe that the game is going to be a third person action game.

    Brutal Legend Review 0

      Tim Schafer has an incredible resume of games. Two of my favorite games of all time (Psychonauts and Grim Fandango) were creations of Schafer's unique ability to create humor in games, and satisfying gameplay. Brutal Legend seemed like it would continue Schafer's winning record. Sadly, it does not come close.  In Brutal Legend, you play as Eddie Riggs, a roadie for a "heavy metal" band, who is killed during a freak on-stage accident. Blood spills onto Eddie's belt buckle and he is transported...
