Okay, I'm currently on a budget now. I'm only buying three games from September to 2010. I'm definitely buying Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, and Assassin Creed 2, in the month of November. In October, I'm thinking of buying either Uncharted 2 or Brutal Legend. I'm not 100% sure which one should I buy. Brutal Legend has been receiving plenty of attention, Uncharted 2 as well. Both games looks great, and I feel that I will enjoy myself w/ either game I choose. Surprisingly, I've never played the first Uncharted(only the demo), so I'm quite puzzle on which game I should choose. I will appreciate it, if my fellow giantbombers help me out. Thank You!!! =)
Brutal Legend or Uncharted 2?
Personally i'd drop Assassins Creed and get Uncharted 2 and Brutal Legend. But that's just me, I didn't like Assassins Creed much and havn't yet played Uncharted, i'd like to though but I could just as easily play any other third person shooter.
But yeah, obviously i'm gonna say Brutal Legend but it depends what you want, they are very different games.
Yea, Tim Schafer is a great guy. Its just sad, that Psychonauts sold poorly. Hmmmm Brutal Legend over Uncharted I see" Get Brutal Legend because it will save Tim Schafer's company. However Uncharted 2 looks really really excellent too. I recommend playing the first one, you'll probably enjoy it. Maybe get Uncharted 2 for christmas or something ;) "

That is a really tough choice. I'm getting both eventually, but I want Brütal Legend first so I recommend that one.
This is such a difficult decision, Uncharted is my favourite PS3 game after MGS4 and I'm sure no.2 will be the same quality, but I can't say no to how good Brutal Legend looks it's a game that has never come along before unlike another cover shooter. I would wait for reviews and then make a decision.
Brutal Legend for me, but that is a heavily biased answer since Brutal Legend is like already my favorite game of all time...I know it's dangerous to make hyped statements like that, but this is the first time I've felt this about a game...Not sure what it is about it, it's like "Soul Thrashing Black Sorcery"

Even though I'm much more excited for U2, I'd say Brutal Legend. Uncharted 2 won't need help with initial sales, Brutal Legend will.
" @RipTheVeins said:I know, it's weird though... I just feel so confident in it, and I can't wait for Rocktober, plus anything Tim Schafer touches makes me feel all warm and happy inside and then add metal on top of that and it's like an instant fan-gasm. I already have every cover that BL has been on and framed them on my wall, I even made some artwork... I've never liked a game that much even in concept... It can't be healthy :P" Brutal Legend for me, but that is a heavily biased answer since Brutal Legend is like already my favorite game of all time...I know it's dangerous to make hyped statements like that, but this is the first time I've felt this about a game...Not sure what it is about it, it's like "Soul Thrashing Black Sorcery" "lol, already your favorite game of all time?? those are some strong words lol, but yea i feel the same way.....BL brings something unique to the table "
I'd go with uncharted 2. I am not really sold on Brutal Legend yet, but then again I won't really go with MW 2 so why listen to me. Go with your gut man. I think part of is beacuse Jack Black is starting to annoy me. He started off good but everything he made after School of Rock was pretty much shit. He just does his old tired routine.
Help send a 'Fuck you' to Activison and drop Modern Warfare 2 so you can get both.
...or if your that desperate to sell yourself to Bobby Kotick then get Brutal Legend.
Shocked at the responses thus far. As someone who has no affinity with Tim Schafer nor metal music it's Uncharted 2 all the way for me. Guarantees to be the most explosive, polished and engaging third-person shooter of the year.
I guess if you really like metal though... (why?)
If I had to choose I would go with Uncharted 2, but I would recommend Brutal Legend for you since you haven't played Uncharted yet (which you definitely should). It's unfortunate that you have to pick one or the other, but you can totally pick up Uncharted 2 later after you've finished the first.
Everything about Uncharted 2 looks fantastic plus it now has an online element (although I am unconvinced of how much I personally will delve into that). I think you can wait on the Brutal Legend. I suspect there will be rows of them for sale used after folks get through the single player. On the other hand, Uncharted 2 maybe harder to find do to it's multiplayer (or maybe not, like I said - uncertain). I guess it really comes down to which title are you looking forward to more. I am now and have been for months stoked for Uncharted 2. I think Brutal Legend could be cool, but for me personally, it's not a "day one" release. I think some of the love for Brutal Legend is the hype machine in action...which is not bad! Goodness knows, Tim Schafer's work could use some love, but I wonder how long that will last. "Rocktober" is still 2 months away and a lot other shinier prettys could demand our attention before then.
For me, the other title to get for that month is Borderlands, not Brutal Legend.
I had the same question... until I saw this. Uncharted 2 all the way, man. Probably won't play multiplayer at all, but the story is going to be kickass, and I'm looking forward to the new platforming sections. Combat will just be the same as last game.
I'm poor and I will end up with all four games. MW2 is already paid for though, Brutal Legend I'm getting at release. I'm holding off for a month or so to get the other two games.
