Zero Punctuation review of Brutal Legend

"Its like Narnia crossed with Ozzfest."
"If all you want to do is play Dragonforce at full volume while ramping a high speed armored rocket car off terrain that resembles various Megadeth album covers, then Brutal Legend provides"

Awesome. I ordered Brutal Legend and Dirt 2 so I could use a $75 giftcard I had at Amazon and they had a deal where I get $40 off my next game, which will be the new Gran Turismo when it comes out.

I'm an oldschool Tenacious D/Jack Black fan. Of course I don't like all of his movies *cough* Nacho Libre *cough* but Tenacoius D is just too awesome for words.

I just realized there is no Nurburgring. That's shitty.

Are you sure there's no Ring? I thought I saw screen shots of an Audi on it.

You can see it here, but I don't recall seeing it on the game. Someone go check.

It'll probably be in another car pack. I Fucking hate that shit. Not only do I have to pay $60 for the game, but then I need to go buy microsoft points, and a flogging Xbox live membership. Those rat bastards.

The Ring is in there. Was just driving my E30 M3 there last night. You can get to it by picking "test drive" on a car's menu.

Is there a built in way to set up time trial challenges? I haven't looked into the multiplayer aspect of the game at all. If not, someone feel free to start a new thread and setup the challenge. We can share gamer-tags and crap there. I can do it this weekend if no one else is interested in setting it up... but I'm gonna be at some lame vampire costume ball thing tonight.

I just wish there was a bugeye wrx in the game. It's not like it would have taken them and extra 20 minutes to slap the round lights on the '04 model that's already in the game.

I just played the Wet demo on PS3. Super fun. Can't wait until it I can get it used for $20 in a year. It was very similar to the Mirror's Edge demo, but easier. I'm also enjoying the demo for Blazing Angels 2. It's a WWII warplane game.

It's a damn "unicorn" car, which means you can only purchase it in the auction house. Along with my favorite the 2002 Spirit R, and something else.

Not sure if anyone else has discovered this yet, but when driving in the in car view with default controls if you hold the right joy stick forward then move it left or right the drivers head will swivel in the in car view. To the point where you can check the passenger mirror, or look through a corner.

So, what do those of us with wheels do? I don't have a joystick on the wheel!

Does anyone have Demon's Souls? I was thinking about picking it up. A little RPG here and there sounds fun.

I didn't pick it up, but I've heard good things about it. If I didn't have too many games to play already, I'd probably consider picking it up.

That's game only IIRC, but a good deal if you already have all your plastic band equipment.
