I'm not this drooling Tenacious D/Jack Black fan, and I'm not exactly sure what the connection between him and Tim Schafer's Double Fine is, but I'll tell you what: This trailer for the upcoming Brutal Legend is ... man. Wow. I'm speechless.
If you can do in the game 4% of what you see in this video, this is going to rip apart the human race with its sheer awesomeness, and fill our souls with metal. Guitar Hero and KISS: Psycho Circus will have to surrender their thrones as king and queen of Metal Videogame Royalty when this game is realeased, and make way for what appears to be the most brutal videogame ever known to man in the history of brutal videogames that have ever been known to man.
I really enjoyed Psychonauts, and this has Tim Schaefer's brilliance written all over it... but... I don't know... Jack Black? I'm getting an Unconventional Butler feel from this.
Hey God, it's me. I see you finally recieved my message for a video game like this. I just want to say, thanks. Oh, and can you kill Paul? He's a total prick. Well, not kill him but make 'em suffer? All I ask. Thanks.
this looks sicker than sick, blacker than black! now all i need is for a Dethklok game (or a DLC for their entire album on rock band) to be created and gaming will have the most brutal fucking experiences ever in the next few years =D
This game fucking reminds of Dethklok, Conan The Barabarian, Kull The Conqueor and Korgoth of Barabaria all balled up together to make a shit cum shot rite on my face!!! Where do I sign?!?!
From the Wiki entry.... [i]The game's voice actors include Lemmy Kilmister of Motörhead, Rob Halford of Judas Priest, and Ronnie James Dio of Black Sabbath. There are also many unannounced Hollywood stars that are being targeted for other roles in the game.
The soundtrack is set to include brand new music by Zakk Wylde, Tim Skold, Wolfmother, Judas Priest, and Ronnie James Dio, with extended guitar solos by Judas Priest guitarists K. K. Downing and Glenn Tipton.[/i]

This better be epic.
I know the Bible says "Thou shalt not covet"...
...but SHIT, man.
I worship at the alter of Tim Schafer.
*sigh*
And for the record, Tenacious D was lame.
For the love of guy buy this so we don't have another Psychonauts fiasco, where an amazing game gets brushed aside and has poor sales
