Rock Your Face Off With Brutal Legend: The Intro Movie

The wait until Rocktober 13th getting you down? Feast your eyes on the first six minutes of Brutal Legend

[gamespot=6227649]

You know how when you have a bug bite or something, and it itches, and you scratch it, it feels really, really good? But then all that does is make it itch some more? It's a vicious, perpetuating cycle - and one we're falling into with Brutal Legend. Some new footage comes out that whets our appetite for the game just a bit, but then once we're done, it makes us remember that the game is still a month away. Alas and alack.

If you're the sort who doesn't mind spoilers (and we're talking spoilers about literally the first six minutes of the game) then Brutal Legend's intro movie does a great job at setting the stage for the game: Eddie Riggs is a good roadie. The best roadie, in fact. He knows what a roadie's job is, and performs it admirably, even if he thinks that metal - the metal he cherishes and adores - is dead and gone.

Or is it? (Dun dun dun! [http://www.dramabutton.com/])

Of course, the intro movie ends on a cliffhanger - they're not going to give everything away, are they? Gee, I wonder where the game could go from here. I guess we'll have to wait to find out...

Saw it on Joystiq, and that trailer did nothing but make me want it more!

 

[Armored Prayer]

That funny and awesome.

Why did they have to edit the mature parts? I wanted to see the guys get mutilated.

 

[Sparrow]

Heh.

A game that asks you if you want it to swear. I am so getting this game now.

 

[ZeroMachine]

Those little interuptions asking about censorship had to be a couple of the funniest things I've ever seen in a video game, and that was just the beggining of the freakin' game. This game is going to rock.

 

[MrLS]

Man that was frikin awesome, I'm glad i preordered it, i'm gonna stand and wait outside the shop until they release it so i can go home and isolate myself from the world under the next 5 playthroughs.

 

[Proteus214]

Oh. My. God.

Seriously though, why couldn't they just not censor everything like that?

 

[KarumaK]

...Huh? What happened? I remember awesome and then nothing.

GET BRUTAL LEGEND, get it!

Woah, where'd that come from.

 

[Torque669]

It asks you personally whether you want gore or blood and changes accordingly. Thats pretty sweet in its own right. I bet instead of the drummer getting swept away he just turns into a bloody puddle. And the bassist, singer and guitarist just get melted.

But that is one sweet intro movie. Cant wait for the Demo.

 

[El Poncho]

Oh. My. God.

Seriously though, why couldn't they just not censor everything like that?

So you could see it the way you wanted to when you get the game?

also SO MANY GAMES COMING OUT I DON'T KNOW WHICH ONES TO GET >:|

 

[MrMisfit]

I loved when the crowd was cheering for the demon more than the crappy band. Also, loved the line: "Please let him fall."

 

[PyroZombie]

I loved this as one of the many who wait for this game to come out, and as a metal head.

 

[RanD00M]

Rocktober 13th will be one of the best day in this years gaming.

 

[Osaka-chaness]

That funny and awesome.

Why did they have to edit the mature parts? I wanted to see the guys get mutilated.

While I'm inclined to agree, I have to say them suddenly falling into a "group cuddle" position made me LOL. Same with the swearing getting bleeped out XD

But yes, funny and awesome. \m/

 

[Low Key]

Oh. My. God.

Seriously though, why couldn't they just not censor everything like that?

Yeah, it kinda defeats the purpose of verifying age beforehand.

 

[Random Argument Man]

It's trailers like these that makes me regret having a fucking small T.V that doesn't have plugs for an xbox...

 

[Skreeee]

Want. Want so very much.

Though the whole choosing whether or not to see the gore and hear the swearing takes the experience away a bit. I hope that that's not going to pop up constantly the entire game.

 

[gibboss28]

That was pretty darn awesome.

 

[Darenus]

I seraiously wanted to pat that Metal Monster and buy it a drink made of gasoline and nitroglycerine and headbang to honor it to the best of my powers till my neck cracks, only to keep banging my head as an undead worshipper of true metal power....

and that was just the Intro?

*needs to get a PS3 just for that game!*

 

[geldonyetich]

Looks like I'm going to have to borrow the brother's X-Box 360.
