Brutal Lege - Playstation 3

Basically, if you want my review in a nutshell, I think that if you are a fan of heavy metal, comedy, and video games, you have no excuse NOT to buy Brutal Legend. The characters, world, and soundtrack are ALL top notch and worth full price alone. This is because they are above and beyond what you will typically find in most video games, and pleasantly enough,much better than any Jack Black movie. So, expect to have laughed, headbanged, and stood in awe of the creative environments many times over before it is completed.That is why I loved it and the reason why I will recommend it to friends, not what is holding the game back. What really does, however, is the relatively short length and flawed gameplay. Maybe I have been spoiled by better action games but the regular fighting mechanics are not very tight or fun, just serviceable. The end result was desiring to finish these stages quickly with incredibly powerful guitar solos, rather than relish in the enemies' bloodshed during the heat of combat. Neither are the totally unexpected RTS portions of the game that amazing, because if you've never played the genre before, like me, they are not explained as well as they should be and you only get the hang of it by the last few battles. Of course, by then, it is fun enough that you will wish there was more because the game is only about 7-8 hours long, assuming you do a good portion of the side missions.Overall, though, this is a fantastic game with lots of potential to achieve greatness if a franchise is ever established, which should explain my title. The aforementioned problems can be fixed; the driving, which I have no problem with, could be made to be more twisted-metal-like; we could get more heavy metal stars like Dave Mustaine, Brendon Small, or Shagrath into the game; and maybe, just MAYBE, we can feature some Iron Maiden, Metallica, and Arch Enemy on the soundtrack. Opeth is unlikely but would also kick ass, and even if a sequel is more of the same it will still be good, since it seems like the world is rich enough to support many future adventures. The problem is, this didn't sell nearly as well as the developer had hoped and was left in the dust in favor of less original, more of the same sequels like Call of Duty and non-games like Wii Fit. We'll need to do all we can to change that, so buy this game new if you haven't, spread the word and hopefully we can make this into a cult hit.

They had a lot of stars in the cast, full of side quest and great tracks! Would have liked a jump function as a game mechanic for first player. Other than that it was a unique gaming concept that was hours of fun.

Let me start by saying that I am NOT a fan of Jack Black. At all. However, I do like heavy metal--and you cannot like heavy metal and NOT like this game. It's just not possible. It's clever, challenging and funny as hell. The only drawback is that it IS a fairly short game--but there are lots of mini-games to play to continue your character. And if you're a busy grown-up looking for a quick fix of nostalgic metal from your youth, a shorter game is probably preferable. The music is excellent, the graphics are acceptable (but the art concepts are fantastic!), and the story is just plain fun.

Let me preface this review by saying that I am not a huge fan of metal music nor of Jack Black. I listened to some Ozzy when I was growing up, and I think Jack Black is OK, but those weren't the reasons I bought this game. In fact, the first time I heard about this game, I had zero interest in it. However, playing the demo, reading some interviews with Tim Schafer, and seeing some of the art behind this game completely changed my mind.The Pros:The art in this game is fantastic - the world, the character design, the "legends" you uncover, even the user interface - are all a joy to encounter. I never got tired of finding a new viewpoint and watching the camera pan across some fantastic heavy metal landmark. And the various heavy metal demons they've thought up are brilliant.The story is top notch. The plot of the main quest, and especially the "legend" back story are really well done.The voice work is truly excellent. It really brings the characters to life.The humor - maybe I have the mind of a 13 year old, but the game made me laugh out loud several times and kept me with a constant mental grin.The music - even though I'm not a huge fan of the genre, it really fits the game world.The world continues - once you beat the game you can keep exploring or finish side missions you haven't yet completed. And there seems to be a bridge to nowhere - maybe a possible DLC single player continuation? I sure hope so.The Cons:The single player campaign is short. I don't think you are really enjoying it if you finish it in 6 hours like some are claiming, but I had about 3 really in-depth sittings before I finished it.The time you spend on the ground with your axe is even shorter. I enjoyed the first couple missions the most, where the game had you dungeon crawling a bit and defeating a boss enemy at the end. Gameplay shifts quickly to the troop directed stage battle mechanic, which I wasn't really expecting.The side missions are repetitive, and actually not all that numerous. I finished them all shortly after beating the game. Make sure you seek out the uniquely named side missions though - some of them are real gems.Other Thoughts:You will be doing a lot of driving around. Several of the missions involve racing your car or driving around and blasting things. I actually enjoyed this part of the game, but it does seem like you are constantly in the Deuce.The world is kind of small - it's not as expansive as say Fallout 3 or Oblivion. But I think it suits the game pretty well.You can shock just about any four legged creature and ride it - I don't think I really realized this until after I beat the game. I don't think it will particularly help you much during the game, but it's kinda fun =DAfter completing the game and exploring what I thought was pretty thoroughly, I've only completed about 40% Of the game according to my trophy score. I only discovered a little more than half of the bound serpents, and I find myself lacking the motivation to "complete" the scavenger hunting and the rest of the single player trophies. (How in the world can there possibly be that many things still left to find??)I'm not a huge fan of the RTS style stage battles (I know Tim Schafer claims it is NOT an RTS, but..) I haven't yet played a multiplayer stage battle and I'm not real enthusiastic about doing so, and that is a BIG part of the replay value. You'll probably enjoy the game a lot more if you like the stage battles, but I'm not sure what type of player they are aimed at. For hardcore RTS players I'm sure it's really simplistic, and for those of us who just prefer to hack and slash, it starts to become a chore. You may enjoy them, but it didn't float my boat.Overall this is still one of the best games I've played all year.

Um crime tão pouca gente saber da existência dessa obra de arte! Um clássico para a coleção.

Estaba dudoso que el juego fuera primera edicion y se encontrara nuevo, pero me sorprendio 15/10 de escuela del rock hasta tenacius D

Tim Shafer is like the Kevin Smith of video games. He makes great stuff, that fans will blindly pick up and try to tell everyone else that it is the best thing ever. Well I am one of those fans, but I will try to be as fair as possible. This game is unlike anything you have ever played. If you tried the demo, you will quickly find that it didn't represent the actual game very well. The demo was fun and gave the impression that you were playing an action/fighting game with heavy metal themes, driving, and the comedy of Jack Black. Well that is all fair, but they didn't show you the real-time strategy moments that dominate this game. You will take control of countless head banger in your quest. You will learn to command and lead your armies into battle, and honestly as someone who doesn't like RTS games, this game is so much fun. Of course anyone who has read any of my previous reviews know, I love metal, all metal, and Jack Black. So this game really speaks to me. There are a bunch of guest characters includin Lemmy from Motorhead, and Ozzy, plus a few more. The soundtrack is great, and the enemies will make you laugh if you lived through the 80's. The online is pure RTS with a metal theme. You build your hoard and try to destroy your enemy's stage. That's right, you are fighting to be the only team able to hold a concert. It is all done so well, that even the offline battles against the AI is fun. If you like Tenacious D, Jack Black, Heavy Metal, or anything by Tim Shafer, then you owe it to yourself to get this game. It is great quality, and will last you a long time.

パッケージからも分かるようにヘヴィ・メタルが主軸のゲームです。その手の音楽が好きな人には思い切りオススメ出来ますがそうでない/逆に嫌いな人には思い切りオススメしません。B級っぽく見えますが中身は中々しっかりと作られています。以下感想を箇条書にしていきます。〇どこもかしこもメタルの嵐。主人公はメタラー。仲間もメタラー、敵もメタラー。世界もメタル。武器もメタル。そして勿論音楽もメタル。好きな人には堪らないでしょう。〇「わかってらっしゃる」選曲。EAだからこそ出来たであろう超豪華な曲の数々(やはりメタリカはいないですが)。敵陣との闘いではBGMにマノウォーがかかり、車(細かくカスタム可能)に跨がればモータヘッドやジューダスがかかる。制作者の中にメタラーがいるんしょうね、どの曲が何に似合うかを熟知しています。〇仲間に有名人がいます。よく見てみて下さい。聞き覚えのある声や見覚えのある顔が出てきます。まあ全員個性が強すぎて一発でわかりますが(笑)×もう少し練って欲しかったゲーム性。このゲームにはアクションパートのようなものともう一つ、RTSパートのようなものがあります。双方悪いわけではないのですが、なんというか淡泊です。×敵が強い……。これはプレイヤーによっても変わると思いますが、RTS時の敵が中々手強いです。普段RTSをやらない人は苦労必至です。×完全に一部の層にしかウケない。なにもかもがメタルに興味がないと楽しめません。その点究極の不親切ゲームと言えるかもです。×オープンワールドという特性を活かしきれていない。移動する時に面倒なだけで、言ってしまうと必要性がほぼ無いです。その他特徴・RTS時に翼が生え飛べるようになる・曲は古参メタル中心で近年のコア系ニュースクールはほぼ無い・RTSは非本格的

Ya no puede uno acceder al DLC. El juego en si, es buenisimo sin el. Envío excelente por Amazon.
