That was pretty cool.  Too bad I'm gonna have to wait and get it later because there are other games higher on my list, including a game that's coming out the week after this one.

Tim is the man!  That reminded me so much of Full Throttle.

That was the coolest fucking thing I have ever seen.
 
Most likely, I will say that a lot while playing the game.

Err, no ..it's flatout dissing rap-metal and nu-metal ... and rightfully so! "
perhapse both!  Actually that would be awesome since both rap and nu metal are pretty much garbage, and it's sad seeing what constitutes as "metal" these days.

Dude, Tim Schaefer needs to make a movie now. That shit was badass. I only wish Eddie Riggs (think that's his name) would have stood up and zombie jammed or something. But I guess that happens later.  Full horns out in october!

Thought this game looked like shit pretty much when I first heard about it/saw it, but this could actually turn into something special.  Hope it ends up being good!

For some unexplainable reason, I keep thinking of AC's Animus, and how if you put Jack Black in it you'd probably get Brutal Legend.

Yeah, the little dance up top?  In an interview with Tim he mentioned that the little dance and song was something a childhood friend used to do.  The kid would climb up random things and do that little dance and song.  Every time I see it I can't help but crack up.

I like how the monster has it middle two fingers glued down so it always makes a horns gesture. 
I was a little skeptical about jack black being in this but after seein that, there is no one better suited to play Riggs!

This intro is awesome. And holy shit! Razputen voice in the beginning. He does Dagget from Angry Beavers too. He even did the "eh eh" dance.
 
I'm more stoked for this game than nearly everything else coming out this year. Tim freakin' Schafer!

Thank you Tim Schafer for understanding what Metal actually is. Not Slipknot or Mudvayne but REAL FUCKING METAL. This intro takes a dump of all the shit bands who think there metal these days. Fuck rap-metal, grindcore or nu-metal. It's not metal.  

So...yeah, this game looks awesome.

@Metal_Mills: But grindcore is, by the very definition and even the fucking name, NOT METAL. And it's not even pretending to be.

 Anyone else spot that Psychonauts reference there? The dude that climbs on the ledge of the stage makes that same annoying sound as that bully does in Psychonauts. Awesome. Also, Eddy's monologue reminded me of Ben from Full Throttle.
