Just a scant few posts down we brought you all some unfortunate Brütal Legend news. You probably read it and felt your ability to head bang for five minutes straight slowly seep away. Fear not! We bring head banging rejuvenation, proof that Brütal Legend does indeed rock in some small way.

This weekend fans of the game and most likely a bunch of people just wandering around the UK's Download Festival in Donington Park got together and broke the world record for the most people air guitaring at once. 440 fans gathered at the EA Hub at the event and, led by Kerrang FM’s Christian Stevenson, rocked out to the Motörhead classic Ace of Spades. The Guinness Book of World Records watched (and most likely joined in) and officially declared the world record set, smashing the previous attempt set in 2008 of 318.

I can only imagine that with that many people air guitaring some sort of real guitar sound must have been made. Bill and Ted would be so proud.

Air guitar is no substitute for Dio.

Only 440? Hell, my high school has over 2,000 students. So if I could manage to get a fraction of them to help, we would set a world record? Hmmm... interesting...

Aww I thought it was going to be something like "NVM about the last article guys, Ozzy and Dio made up and now they're both in the game as well as releasing a duet album together! Also, now Bruce Dickinson and Eddie are in the game!" but all I got was a lousy record.

While I found the game to be pretty simple, the game was an absolute delight to play. Jack Black's jokes were in perfect form, and Tim Schaefer has created his best world yet.

And now it has fucking Tim Curry. I'm taking out a loan for this game, and I think it's going to sell at least a million.

I only see like 4 or 5 people actually air guitaring in that picture.

Keanu Reeves looks at this and probably remembers the days when he wasn't a dull and soulless corpse of an actor.

fetusmilk

Darren Nakamura

I'm in that crowd... somewhere. I was #273 out of the 440 in total, I only did it for the t-shirt but it was fun to do though. They stupidly decided to play some Pantera before the record attempt started, so security had to step in and break up a mosh pit that formed in front of the booth. I hope George Carlin and Dimebag Darrell were watching from above that day.
