I love it vids
Me to
Missed opportunity to play alien like music or someone slapping an instrument.
You gotta try Red Faction: Guerilla from 2009. A hardcore destruction game with great physics!
I highly recommend Binary Domain.
Its a fantastic 3rd person shooter by SEGA.
Truly underappreciated, and sadly we'll never get a sequel.
Imagine a game developer just said “Jack Black” to their boss and the whole gaming company goes wild with just the mention of his name.
Jack Black? THE Jack Black? Fuck whatever we were working on, let's fucking get him to make a game and star in it.
yes
Quite honestly imagine the ones who did a panda doing kung fu with jack black as the voice
There are so many famous metal musicians in this that when they finally had the full cast list, there definitely had to be some awestruck developers lol
Sounds accurate
The fact the devs got licensing for ALL those heavy metal songs is amazing all on its own, seriously you could turn the game on and just listen to the ultimate collection of heavy metal they've assembled. It actually helped me discover a number of classic heavy metal bands I had never heard about before.
It's a damn shame he turned the music off
@@chriskoloski32 Yeah, but youtube have a tendancie to strike down vids, I mean, a big French creator (Bob Lennon) has made a 100% playthrough in 24 episodes but like 6 are just deleted by CZcams and not available
Playing this game with music on on twitch or youtube is the equivolent of lighting yourself on fire. It's likely to kill the channel in copy right strikes, or enough to leave it on life support.
Damn there all basic bands I'm pretty sure like sabbath, metallica, Megadeth etc lol
@@vayalond7203 Ah, I see you are a man of proper culture as well ^^
Longue Vie au Lennooooooon !
The most memorable thing about this game was the videogame awards show of 2009. Jack Black won best actor and tried to give his GotY speech, and when realizing they werent nominated for GotY he destroyed the podium with his trophy and was escorted out by security
I never got to play this game, but that seems like an appropriate reaction based on what I've seen and heard about the game.
That was a scripted skit.
@@MrNoahFerris I know it was just a skit, but it was still really funny
Fucking metal
Game memorable
The fact no game has picked up the formula this game laid out is crazy to me.
So much Character, so unique. So metal.
Sequel is much needed. I just hope we see it at some time in my lifetime, kind of like the Blade Runner sequel.
no dev company would want to risk all the licensing cost to pick up a formula like this
Sacrefice comes preaty clouse. Does the RTS much better
The licensing was so expensive with the music and not including the dialogue costs for the actual singers they brought in. I would love to see a sequel with perhaps more bands like Five Finger death punch and stuff but I don't believe it'll ever happen sadly.
Why does no one talk about brutal legend, it’s literally been
my favorite game
Music, and games are way too different now.
I don't care what people say, this game was so good. I knew it would be one of my favorite games from the moment I saw the first commercials, and I loved every second of playing it. It needs a sequel!
All the best games from back then really deserve sequels we may never get. It's a miracle that we got Destroy All Humans and Battle for Bikini Bottom. And thanks to Actiblizz and WoW, I will never see a Metal Arms 2 again in my life.
It does...but unfortunately Double Fine has stated that they will NOT make a sequel.
Eventho Jack was fully onboard with making a sequel.
Edit: just found that Tim Schafer has stated that there is a possibility for a BL2, but it's a very tricky situation for them to be in wether to make a game HE wants, or make game that the FANS wants.
This was an article from 2021.
@@MorfsPrower Destroy all humans is getting a sequel
@@gabrielpineirogarcia2078 it already has like 3
They were gonna make one but then it was cancelled of something. Remember hearing it in a brutal legend doc on CZcams years ago.
You know the design team is on point when everything in this game makes you think "that's metal".
Well, considering the whole concept of the game world was 'imagine the world that album covers are based on'.
This comment is metal. 😏
This game has some of my favorite enemy design
@@crooked9210 The devs said they used metal album covers for inspiration.
Ah yes the golden times, times in which game devs still dared to take actual risks. A time in which a game with a stupid concept like this could have a whole lotta love poured into it. I really, really miss those times
Double fine has always made daring games, psychonauts 2 is quite different from the norm too and that came out last year :]
Now we have repetitive yearly games filled with money grabs (micro transactions) or simply just TRASH single player titles🥲
Have you ever heard of "Indie games"?
@@UkGhostzZ Really just anything fro Devolver digital and double fine
when i played it on my ps3 i thought this is where gaming is heading
To this day, 13 years later, it's easily still my favorite game of all time. It was 100% perfection. Fuck it, I'm installing it again and am going to complete it again for the 6th time
I still play it , and didn't realize till like last month when you play online with people on your team they're literally just you but in a different outfit which is a cool concept with extra detail into a character with an already pre thought out design
What do u play it on? Asking for a match up
Bro pls answer me this. I started replaying it for like the 5th time and I noticed when escorting lars and ophelia to the kill master you can see severed arms stuck in the webs and all the arms are the exact same as eddies. No one else in the game has the bracelets and arm bands as Eddie so im curious as to whether or not it was intentional and means something else or if it was just them re using assets. What do you think?
@@chunky_mustard5312 I think it is just assets, I don't thinks there's a secret behind the arms sadly, I noticed it too and thought, huh that's weird.
@@Horridsaturn I play it on Xbox one.
We need more games and/or products that help promote metal!
There's a new game coming out I think it's called hellsinger
Yeah, metal needs a PR firm lmao
My friend, you need to check out the demo for Metal: Hellsinger then. It'd be right up your alley.
Did you not play the first doom from like 2016? The whole track was done by metal guitarist I believe and he custom made the music to rest to whatever the player is doing prolly one of the most badass soundtracks ever made for a game. And I never even played it and I know that.
Hellsinger and the two most recent DOOM games are exactly what the gaming community has been asking for.
This games soundtrack is fucking incredible, I had never listened to Heavy Metal before I played this (I was 14). It had a significant effect on my taste in music throughout high school
Ayyy same
Too bad it's muted.
@@annoyanceking also same
The Lords of Metal smile upon three. 🤘
Brutal
When I played this game, I had no idea it would slowly turn into a weird hybrid RTS game. But it was a pleasant surprise.
The concept has prospect even if it had a few rough edges here but you feel the love and passion of the devs. Very unique concept and cool ideas even if not every one of them landed.
@@LukasJampen i think people just wanted a hack n' slash, i personally think it would've been cooler (and honestly would've fit the metal theme more)
@@johnnyOWPEJFyeah this. I was shocked when it became an RTS. Nothing against the genre but a game like this demands some hack and slashery and the fact it isn’t made super clear from the get go feels… a little deceptive.
@@AnimatedTerror it was made clear. Tim from day 1 was developing action/RTS, it's in all interviews. When EA bought over the studio, they started making demands to turn the whole game into GoW clone and based their false marketing on that. But you guys always love and trust EA😅
@@TheArklyte I don't think anyone has ever loved or trusted EA. I certainly didn't. I didn't even know about this game till after its release and got bummed when I heard it was a RTS.
Seriously, not having music hurts. The soundtrack is amazing, and it changes in real time to different segments of a given song. For example, the opening area with the cultists has Children of the Grave play but only the opening guitar until you grab the axe. Then the whole song kicks in. Rock of Ages plays during the revolution, and it plays as if it were being broadcast over a loudspeaker.
This game freaking rules.
As a Metalhead, the cameos from Metal Royalty were a treat in this. I've completed it a few times over the years, and it's been a few years since I last played it, so this has gotten me in the mood for another blast of METAL MAYHEM!!!!!
yeah, guess it's time to play it again
There's no way fucking Ozzy Ozbourne was in this game lmao.
@@wilburwilliams36 He definitely is.
@@wilburwilliams36
hes the forge master
Omg finally someone covered it, i grew up with this game and in my opinion its one of the best underrated games of all time and its voiced by Jack Black im so glad you made a vid about it i tought it's been lost to time.
SAME HERE. Bought a PS3 3 months ago when I joined the military, played it and completed it on Brutal. Sadly online is dead but people can play
it has OZZY OSBORNE in it, it has to be good
I play it off and on on Xbox game pass :)
@@AustinSmith-gq5gc Dude Ozzy, Rob Halford...fucking Lemi Kilmister, its not good its fucking EPIC!
@@AustinSmith-gq5gc it has ever rock god ever in it I believe dio and gene Simmons are in it as well.
This game isn’t perfect. But the pure character and love that went into it makes it a masterpiece in my eyes. I will forever love this game.
Ahh, that was such a good time when I discovered Brütal Legend and Metalocalypse at roughly the same time. It's a shame that there isn't so much anymore with this over-the-top Metal humor, both really have their charm
Did you see the crossover they did?
Try Metal Dead and Deathbulge: Battle of the bands. Both have humor and metal, former is a point and click adventure and latter is a turn based rpg.
I feel like the metal fandom is stronger among millennials and gen x'ers ä.
You see the inspiration for this game is that one day Jack Black and his brother Kyle were hitchhiking down a long and lonesome road when all of the sudden, there shined a shiny demon in the middle of the road.
And we played the 1st. thing that game 2 our heads..Just so happened 2 be...

Underrated comment

Oh man the animation is good. I love when games decide to be stylized instead of ultra realistic. Hand animations are snappier and I love that
Oh, absolutely. "Realistic" games often lack personality and sometimes even substance. As a matter of fact, the RTS sections in the video reminded me of another good game with its own style - Overlord series. Had interesting gameplay, too, albeit nowadays it's a bit dated, but that's an old game, after all. Or Deep Rock Galactic - simple, stylish and memorable, but that's one of the newer ones.
Hand-crafted animations and unique style can give so much personality to the project it's quite amazing
Stylized intends to aged pretty well since it’s about the artistic portrayal, rather than the full on realism. Remember that game years ago, Heavenly Sword? It looked good when it came out, now it’s all ugly as sin.
And this video is only a tiny fraction of the artistry that went into this game. I remember even grabbing all the collectibles and there's a whole Ormagoden creation myth sequence in another art style. Not to mention all the unit designs with so many fun little details. It also has really impressive environmental design - each area looks very distinct and beautiful yet has similar elements, like relics of ancient rock music aesthetic lying broken or overgrown all over the place.
Yeah it's much more charming imo. Up until unreal engine 5 all the "realistic" animations even in high budget games like RDR2 gave me weird uncanny valley vibes at times.
The voice cast on this game is legendary. This game deserves all the praise. Its just so damn fun.
Ophelia’s poem still gives me shivers
Through the woods a girl came sadly.
Something broken in her chest.
She had dared to love another.
Alas, no better than the rest.
Up my path the girl came gladly.
Something opened up my doors.
I longed to stop her bleeding heart.
And so I called her to my shores.
Those you trust will hurt you badly.
Something now I'm sure you see.
So drown your tears in me, my dear.
As you drown, my dear, in me…
Game was great & it had the best soundtrack ever
Shame you couldn’t play the music
Probably having to get the versions of all those license to do a 'soundtrack CD' like GTA did for its radio stations would have been prohibitive. OTH, there's the quick & dirty solution of just parking the Plow someplace quiet and letting the 'radio' run while you do something else.
Some say it isn't ophelia but Aetulia.
@@_Tzer oh yeah most definitely
I only referred to it as Ophelia’s poem cause that’s how it’s known but the poem itself is Aetulia calling for her to drown her tears (& herself) in the sea of black tears
Mister Crowley, what went on in your head?..
a weird game gameplay-wise, a beautiful game world- lore- personality- and MUSIC-wise.
The love for the world shines through like the blazing fires borne from the Hot Rods of the Titans.
My jaw dropped. Finally this game getting some credit!
I used to play this game with my childhood friend, we would play after school on multiplayer and have crazy battles, army vs army.. it was insane. This game is awesome.
I dove into this when it came out and I loved it. Don't care about any of whatever shortcomings people think it had.
It had a great story, laugh out loud humor, awesome musical soundtrack, and metal music references & themes all over the place.
Honestly, if anything deserves a sequel, it's *BRUTAL LEGEND* .
This game was so freaking good, and i'm not sure we'll ever get something like it again, i'd absolutely love a sequel
Kev, cant thank you enough to cover this underrated gem of a game with your unique charisma and style.
But damn is it an ABSOLUTE crying shame that to avoid the tyrannical copy strikes and demonitizations you have to leave out the absolute best feature of the game: it's soundtrack!
it's one thing for the legendary tracks selected, but another with when and HOW they're implemented! I mean, damn, the intro with Children of The Grave being played in increasing levels was the best intro I ever saw. to have it on mute....ah, my soul doth weep tears of sorrow.
I ABSOLUTELY have to go back to replay this with sound, honestly hurt my soul to have to mute to make content on it
@@Kevduit also need to mention that in the RTS phases each stage/faction has its own tracks, that get louder as you near the stage but also spreads at the same time as the territory controlled by each. Meaning you can know if an area is under enemy control just by their soundtrack taking over when you enter their turf.
@@Kevduit just Google the list of songs
107 I think
Best soundtrack ever
You definitely have to play it with the music on
Sometimes I would just drive around aimlessly to listen to songs 😂
@@Kevduit you could've just edited the soundtrack out in post
So many moments are better with it. I won't say what the scenes are but the scenes with Mr Crowley and Through the Fire and the flames are just amazing
This game is so freaking good!
The humor, the setting and the characters are all spot on and the whole game really embodies and exudes the true spirit of metal🤘
They're the same madmen who made Psychonauts, so I ain't surprised that it is good
@@glowdonk Haha that's fair😅
Personally I've yet to play a game I dislike from Double Fine, they are great at creating and including captivating stories and interesting mechanics and ideas in their products!
I loved all of that
The RTS gameplay killed it for me. I was all set for a hack and slash adventure, but the poorly implemented RTS portions made it aggravating to continue the story. I enjoy RTSs, but the way this was implemented felt horribly sloppy, which really sucks for this game. Pretty much everything else about this game is AWESOME! I really hate that one mechanic ruined it for me, but it was a core mechanic that was not allowing me to continue and basically every single fight after the first half of the game is an RTS, so I couldn't continue. I'm used to the Command and Conquer series (never was able to play generals. I couldn't ever get it to work on my computer) as well as planetary annihilation, so maybe it was the extremely different control scheme that killed it for me.
This game feels like Jack Black's version of "Army of Darkness" though lol, and I love it.
@@CreativityNull Sad that the RTS parts didn't click for you, but funny enough it started as a multiplayer game and the single player parts were added after as an tutorial and then it just grew into it's own thing, so the single player parts are actually just the after thought and not vice versa 😂 haha
It even still have a somewhat competitive online community and the creators still play it online every year on the anniversary of release from what I know.
The RTS parts are actually somewhat solid mechanic wise when you play online since the other "factions" (Ironheade, Drowning Doom, Tainted Coil) have their own strengths and unusual units.
Although the first tutorial fight with General Lionwhyte before you get the ability to fly with Eddie/JB can be a bit of a drag since your bound like all other the groundwalkers which lower you visibility of and movement on the battle field significantly😅
In single player you can cheese those parts a bit if you got the facemelter solo outside the spider queen lair first, because that insanely kill most enemies around you so you could just drop Eddie into the enemies like a hot knife through butter.
I refuse to believe there are people that didn't LOVE this masterpiece
There are bro trust me my brother was one of them I still never understood
It didn't need RTS elements and probably would have gotten it's DLC and even sequels if it didn't have that in it.
Rts sucks
A hack and slash would have been better. The RTS felt tacked on and was just not fun personally.
@Double094 what ?? I personally the the rts was kinda cool especially once you get the wings what makes it better is your right in the mix
This game holds a special place in my heart despite feeling a little cheated at the time due to the RTS stuff being heavily glossed over in marketing and promotion. The idea of a heavy metal world where locations are inspired by album covers will be forever cool to me. The world building was so fun and the driving was pretty satisfying too
I wish there were more ambitious passion project games like this nowadays
FUCK YES! Me and my dad played the fuck out of the demo until we got the game and 100% of it
I want a sequel to this game so damn bad. I think Tim Schafer said they weren't planning on it which sucks.
I would love a remaster of it. Was a god tier gem of a game
It's something he wants to do, but just doesn't have the funding to do it the way they want.
Yeah it does. Probably for the best though, Lemmys gone, Ozzy is getting on in years and showing it on a mental level, plus with everything going up, can you imagine how much it would cost to get another setlist of Heavy Metal tracks together?
I just don't think it'd be nearly the same. Double Fine's team has changed so much since this game releases, I feel like it would just end up a shell of the original. Too many investors and publishers fingers in game development nowadays.
@@TheClosch I don't then the Double Fine team would really be the issue, it would be how do properly follow up Brutal Legend? The game is absolutely amazing but it didn't really leave itself open for a compelling continuation, which isn't a complaint it is great that the story of Brutal Legend wraps up it's story well enough the only compelling story to explore is what happened before but a story on the Black Tears Rebelion would feel like a copy and paste cash grab.
This game shaped my music interests when it came out, that sound track is genuinely insane I still can't believe they got the licence for all of it. It's honestly a good game still to this day! Glad you got around to playing it
When this thing came out I was a 14 years boy metalhead and i just went crazy with it, it was and still is, a complete crazy masterpiece
I’m so happy you enjoyed the “Experience” that is Brutal Legend. They were gonna have DLC, but it didn’t sell well enough. Which I hoped would mean a 2nd game… Someday.
Was it story DLC, just new units, or what?
No, we got dlc, just not a story expansion. Just more online maps. Allegedly if psychonauts 2 does good enough we might get one. Sucks double fine is so tight budgeted.
Psychonauts 2 did pretty great, and there was a few Brutal Legend easter eggs connected to one of the characters, so I'm pretty hopeful for the sequel's chances
Tim Schafer has stated that he is interested in making a sequel.
@@CrazyTom736 Jack Black also sang one of the main level songs.
This game is truly the work of Örmogodden himself, for only the true strength of metal shall withstand the fire and blood created by the noise within it's sick as hell soundtrack.
1000/1
I'm so bloody nostalgic now. I honestly think this game is incredible. Totally ahead of it's time. Brilliant story, really great music, fun combat. I even like the wierd RTS elements. I honestly would back a remaster.
Great video.
I don't understand how people could hate the RTS parts of this game, you're on the ground with your troops, fighting with your axe, guitar, and car, as well as whatever double teams you bother with using. as far as i know, every other RTS just has you being a camera in the sky telling your group wherever to go.
You should try Sacrifce, incredible game that started the "being in battle with your troops" genre of rts as far as I'm aware.
That's kinda the problem it's too much shit going on to keep track of I never finished this game because I couldn't beat the last rts part I still love it though lol
Thing is most ppl try to play it like a traditional hack n slash and don't spam the fuck outta solos. "Face Melter" is fast af and literally melts the faces off of everyone it touches
@@yaqubebased1961 yeah, Face Melter was OP.
@@beershits9340 just finished it today, actually found some good strategies online for the rts parts and managed to beat the final rts part on my third try. pretty much patience, upgrading your basic fighters and stage and then attack the heads with the big tank and your car while everyone else is protecting the fans...and lots of solo uses. XD
This was one of my favorite games during this era of gaming. I played it so much. I really wish they’d do a rerelease of it. I think what killed it was a bunch of reviews from gaming reporters who just couldn’t stand a game trying something different gaming modes, like how it switched between hack n slash, and RTS.
Like I even recently heard another CZcamsr rip on it for this. Not even whether or not that it was good or bad, he was just mocking it for having a different mode from the straightforward hack n slash.
While I wouldn’t defend it as a masterpiece, I do think this game deserved better than what it got because it was still overall fun, even with the switch between modes.
You can also blame actual demo not showcasing the RTS side of it properly. A lot of people went into it expecting it to be a hack and slash and just heard "it's actually an RTS" and thought that meant that the hack and slash part either disappeared or was not a part of the actual game, since the demo ended long before any RTS elements actually showed up.
This is unironically why I never bothered with it.
What was the name of the reviewer?
@@doomyboi which is funny as majority of the game is the hack and slash
The reviewers killed it...
This is the most niche game I ever played and it's incredible it even exist in first place, and even more incredible it's the fact people who liked it don't get why it failed...
Never try to make a niche game with licenses specially music licenses...
I love Brutal Legend and I've played it ever since I wad a kid i think it needs a sequel. I love your content, keep up the amazing work
You cannot make a game like this anymore in the west. Western culture is complete garbage now. 2009 was a much better time. Case and point this game. Now you have to look towards the East for quality games.
@@requiemagent3014 I agree with you quite a bit, especially the writing has gone downhill in the west
@@mr.dikovitch5524 Because everything is political. Which isn't necessarily w bad thing. Fallout new Vegas is political to it's very core. The difference is the game doesn't tell you which are the "good" and the "bad" guys. Or what side is in the right. It's up to the player.
Nowadays games want to tell you what you have to feel. The fact that everything about the story is dogshit is irrelevant. Just look at The last of us 2. What an good awful game this was. But remember you are homophobic for thinking it's a bad game.
@@requiemagent3014 yeah, there's no neutrality or multiple perspectives anymore like in New Vegas, every story is so bland and Black and White that any nuance is removed
@@requiemagent3014 Why would a game set in a metal world with Jack Black as the protagonist be impossible to make today exactly?
i forgot how much i loved this game. noticed the goofiest grin of my life when ozzy showed up
Played this for the first time yesterday at my buddy's house. It didn't just blow my mind, it blew my soul!
this game felt like a fever dream, never played it but my brother did way back
I played the shit out of it for like a week straight and beat it. Don't remember any of the game. Same goes for BLACK.
Oh the nostalgia. The game was so fucking metal. Even if the RTS were tedious, and I remember replaying the final RTS missions against demon-gf many times they were so bullshit
They can be tedious, but they are SOOO satisfying to master.
With games like this, even if they don't stick the landing I cant find it in my heart to dislike them because they have so much soul and true passion put into them by the creators
I watched this video some months back when I saw it pop up in the CZcams Algorithm and it was enough to make me find a copy that I had lying around and start playing it again, I think I'm on the 8th playthrough sense this video dropped. So glad you brought this game back into light in my life.
I remember playing this game religiously and I am hyped to see you play it, I hope you find the time to check out Asura's Wrath another game I played a lot
Asura's Wrath is just Asian God of War. And it's awesome 😎
Asura's Wrath was a good game but idk why they chose to lock true ending in a dlc :l
@@kamiya4700 money
@@kamiya4700 to be fair, the "True ending" was supposed to be just the secret ending of the original game, they just added more chapters when capcom cancelled the sequel since the first one didn't sold well, so they used the written sequel to make the dlc
Man, all these years later but I just realized, you could say that the characters were inspired by Tim Burton and I'd believe you. Jesus how much money did Double Fine actually lose making this game with all the licencing and VA work?
This game really was special. And gave you a lot really.
The game was published by EA, so they're the ones who lost money
@@Oscar97o
Oh really? I thought Double Fine front loaded it. Makes sense then how they got all of these big names and licencing.
The art and music in this game is just amazing. Watching you play this game brings back some of the best memories of my life.
I love this game so much, I bought it in 2020, 11 years after it came out, I play it now more than any other modern game I have, the gameplay, soundtrack, scenery and world all make it so special. ITs an awesome experience and its a shame that it didn't sell well but in a way that niche and rarity make it even better. Its an underrated one of a kind game and I always get pleasures going back to it every now and then. Rock on!
Absolutely amazing game. Still hold it close to my heart to this day. Also helps introduce metal to a more mainstream audience, it’s all just great!
The fact youre constantly putting out solid content is amazing dude, honestly its always nice to know that i can look forward to a bad ass kevduit video after a day of some flavor.
dude i loved this game and still do. i play it here and there love that you played it man
When this game was still active, the online multiplayer was surprisingly fun. Criminally underrated game.

I really hope somebody gets the reference.
Judging by your profile pic... Id say its an old school runescape reference.

Coincidentally I started playing this a month ago and just finished last night. Grand game with refreshing aspects of story and experience compared to most if modern games. So glad i got to play this gem.
This game earned my upmost respect in under 5 minutes, God bless brutal legend
Dude, watching this I could tell you genuinely were having a blast playing this at times, cheers for the review
What brings me joy is seeing Kev understand all the metal references and the artists in this game.
Kevduit is a metal head confirmed
I got this game when i was in high school still got a tiny crush for Ophelia, It got me more into metal and was a blast to play I was so invested into the characters I didnt wanted it to end and actually teared up at some points in the story. I felt empty when I finished it and was so hopeful for a sequel still hope the make it
Been a metal fan since I was 9 years old in the late 80's, but never a big gamer until the pandemic, I have my copy downloading now and CAN'T WAIT! It looks BRUTAL. Thanks for helping me make the decision to get it!
well, how was it?
@@roykennedy You gotta play it! Especially if your a metal head. The story was great, the world landscapes killer and the music was brutal. I'm a roll though type gamer, but I stretched it out for a while with side missions and just driving around in the car listening to songs running over shit like it was GTA. Hit me back when you play it and let me know what you think. If you can get past older design and controls, you'll love it.
The biggest appreciation I has was there is a band I just couldn't stand and never gave them a chance; I had a tough time with a mission and by the time I finished, it turned into one of my favorite songs on the game as it kept looping until I completed it. I'd rate it a solid 8.5 going by 2009 standards.
@@NPK476 My friend, I've played it a few times over the years, both on console and PC, (although I think I've only ever beaten it properly once) it's one of my favorite games of all time because it just has passion~ ya know? It's about music, fucking beautiful music man!
I remember hearing that when the devs were making the game they wanted to make it in a way that if you stopped at any point and took a screenshot it would be a metal album cover (honestly it's a crime that there isn't a photo mode)
@@roykennedy I'm excited to play it again, I think next winter will be a good time. Such a good game and like you said, the people that made it really love what they do and it shows. I remember hearing about it on different metal sites, but it really was like finding a hidden gem I didn't know existed. What was your favorite part of the whole thing?
@@NPK476 honestly, I think it's the cast that I love the most, Heavy Metal royalty mixed with staples of the VA industry! especially since some of them have passed since the game's release
Damn you can’t play this game without the badass music in the background, hopefully you play this on your own time and headbang to the music🤘
I actually no joke love this game. Since im a RTS fan but damn was the final few endings utterly Ball crushingly Diffcult, They was So hard! and.... Well Brutal. I also remember how when they advertised the game it was always Clips of the RPG elements Like Eddie in the Mosh pit, The intro Scene, Scenes with the Car. So when people played it and found out it was Really a RTS they was utterly confused xD
If you love this you have to play Sacrifice. Probably the most underrated game of all time.
Brütal Legend is truly one of my favourite games ever. I love the multiplayer and I’ll die on this hill, very fun imo and I don’t generally enjoy RTS games.
Phenomenal soundtrack, amazing cast, brilliant world with deep lore. I hope we get the sequel before all the great metal icons die but I’m losing hope.
I’m so glad to see people discovering this game and enjoying it!
This game is severely underrated. It's not perfect of course but definitely a sleeper
I always thought if they made a game base on Lobo this should b the template
I’ve fallen in love with this channel
Having a game with so many great people such as Jack, Lemmy, Ozzy, Rob, Lita and hell even Tim Curry always made this a game I come back to often. Glad you played it too and had fun
jim?
@@roykennedy Just realised my spelling mistake
Good to see people still remember brutal legends!!!
This here was one of the reason I became a metal fan jajaja
More videos need to be made about Brutal Legend, I just replayed it because of this video and my god I can't think of another game that's more deserving of a sequel
I absolutely love this game! Still play it on and off every now and then. Only thing that sucks is the copyright problems if you stream it. The game has some great music from some really great bands. And loved the fact that you could turn on or off swear sensors and gore. Or mix and match them.
Brutal Legend will forever have a special place in history for me, a game that is unlike any other, pure awesomeness
This game bleeds effort and love and passion from every pore. They didn't need to film a live action intro sequence with a literal live-action immersive main-menu system complete with artwork. But they did. They didn't need to invent a fake boy band of faux nu-metal to annoy us. But they did. They didn't need to license an amazing collection of very expensive and legendary songs along with some niche tracks to intrigue- BUT, THEY, DID. They didn't need to make the swearing and gore settings both immersive and funny prompts, but they did. So many little details.
I played this as a youngster and recently got it on the game pass, it still holds up. All the nostalgia was amazing.
Good game, no joke. Yes, the RTS part was kinda rough, but the story was interesting enough for me to continue.
Others:
"Metal makes you aggressive!"
Me:
"DECAPITATIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!"
Man.. I reaaly played this game SO MUCH. I remember all the upgrades you I did in my car. It was a nice year
This is the first Kevduit video i came across and ive been hooked
As a proud enjoyer of shitty, self aware humor, aswell as good music and Lemmy Kilmister cameos, I really gotta tell y'all, we need more game like that real fast.
I don't know what it is, but man, I fell in love with the game. It just hits the right notes everytime and I respect the devs for making this goddamn masterpiece
Hell, I'd even go as far and say this is better than Dolmen, yes, THE Dolmen
LOVED THIS GAME GROWING UP AND THE AWESOME SOUNDTRACK AND THINGSTO ACCOMPLISH IN IT! to me this game was epic no matter the haters plus come on man ozzy lol
Holy cow thanks for doing this. (Almost a year ago) This got a million people to see this and I'm sure it probably raised the copy sells to go up by a bit. I also cant tell you how thankful I am, this game was my childhood in which I mean I played it like 10 times before I got past the big wormy dude when I was around 5. Its also a little heart breaking to see the hours of fun gameplay put into a 27 minute video...
Dude, i love how you enjoy this game! One of top games on my games list
Hey! I played this, it was pretty cool, multiplayer was pretty ight, never enough people, even back then.
Dude I remember back in high school 🏫 my friend wanted me to play this game lol 😆. I enjoyed it but I was still too busy playing fallout 3.
this is literally one of my favorite games ever growing up i even went as far as to make a replica of the book, my drawigs werent very good cause i was young lmao but it had all the games info.
i been begging for a remake ev en tho i still play it on pc
i have no words, shits so good i just cant utter any words that describe the feeling of nostalgia im getting by just watching this video.
I hope once jack is done with his part in dead island 2 that there will be a brutal legend 2 that would be a gift to the metal world
I remember playing a demo of this game as a kid and loving every second of it.
Just finished this game the other day after finding it on Xbox, absolutely loved it!
I think 5 years ago I watched a video containing all the cutscenes of the game and only now remember how awesome it was. Somewhat inspired a very small metal phase.
THIS IS LITERALLY MY FAVORITE GAME! I WANT A REMASTERED FOR PS5! I STILL GO BACK TO MY PS3 JUST TO STILL PLAY IT!
“So I finally tired” has been my favorite series on CZcams. When I’m feeling all lonely in bed at night, and I see this series… I get a little chubbed up and all my problems just go away. Thank you Kev.
seven year old me ADORED this game (i still love it). i would always try to get my step dad to play it back in the day when we owned it on ps3. awesome to see that people still remember/play it
Bought the game on release for PS3 (being a Jack Black AND Heavy Metal Fan as well as loving what i got to see in trailers/previews) and loved it.
Installed it a short while ago on STEAM DECK and it is again/still awesome ^^
They really need to make a new RTS Only version of this, would be an awesome game lol
Fucking loved this game though
Cool to see brutal legend get attention like this. I beat it several times in high school and recently I made a tier list video on my channel. Hope the multiplayer gets active after this.
I love this game, was so hyped for it when it launched and still have my copy to this day.
It's almost criminal to play a game centered around metal music and you play with the music off
Fun fact: this game has multiplayer
you know what to do next
Yea, should join the discord and get his ass kicked heheh
The moment I bought this game back then on PS3 was like making all those hours listening to metal during high school so worth it, the music, the setting, all the references made me not care that much about the RTS part of it. This game is just awesome
Got me a new ps3 recently just to finally be able to play this game (I know it's on steam, but I don't have a game pc, and console just feels right to me), the rtm elements honestly kind of scared me at first, but at the end, when I finally had some good strategies to work with, it was actually a lot of fun, and overall a damn cool and metal game.
