 |
|
For three years, actor Jack Black has been secretly working with game developer Tim Schafer on Brütal Legend, in which players can slay enemies by cranking out heavy metal music.
A number of metal superstars are set to lend their voices to the game, including Rob Halford, Lemmy Kilmister and Ronnie James Dio.
Gamer website, Worthplaying.com issues this update on the game:
"Brütal Legend is a third person Action/Adventure game starring Jack Black in the role of roadie Eddie Riggs, who sets on an epic quest to build an army of rockers with only a broad axe, a big block V8 and his faithful guitar in hand.
Brütal Legend tells the tale of Eddie Riggs, played by Jack Black, who is drawn back through time to a mythical world dripped in Rock and Roll folklore; where great Metal titans once ruled and power chords rang from the countryside for all to hear. When an oppressed people request Eddie’s knowledge of modern warfare, he pulls from his own experience in the only occupation he’s ever had, a roadie for a Heavy Metal band. From this springs the most hellacious army man has ever seen, and thus brings this ancient world into the Age of Metal.
Brütal Legend will be available for the Xbox 360 and PS3 fall this year.

| That actually sounds quite cool. I'm not a huge fan of Jack Black though, despite his obvious good taste in musicians, but sounds like a fun game. |

Odd(ish)!
For as long as I can remember I've envisioned a similar scenario/landscape. Where our Metal heroes are God-Kings in a Semi-D&D-type world where power chords slay and so-forth.
I'd leave out the big-block V8 lest it turn into something a little too Alpha-male or Metal-Cliche, but that's just me. |

Read about it a while ago, last time I checked Dio was going to have the voice of some divine person 
Also read that the enemies are inspired by goths and emos 
Looking forward to this game! |
