Brütal Legend Reviews Are Doing Good


So, what about Brütal Legend, the heavy metal adventure game everyone is waiting for? It's released in a few days, Americans can buy it already, and more and more reviews are popping up on the internets. Right now the game has gamerankings score of 84%. IGN gave between 90% and 93%, Eurogamer gave 8/10 and Screwattack says Buy It!. Let's see a few quotes:
“Brutal Legend isn’t quite perfect and there is room for improvement (it’s a little short, side quests are repetitive…), but when the credits roll you’ll find yourself hoping for a sophomore release. Double Fine created a rich heavy metal universe and backstory full of great characters and creatures, with potential for an out-of-this-world sequel. Here’s hoping Shafer and company get a chance to take us there.” IGN

"It's probably Brutal Legend's characters that win out. Since the days when he provided dialogue options for Guybrush Threepwood, Schafer's secret skill has been to people his games with lovable oddballs who quickly start to feel like friends, creating bonds strong enough to ensure you forgive some of the ropier moments. In this case, Schafer, Double Fine, and Black haven't just created a story about roadies: they've become them, scuttling about energetically, heads down and minds focused, as they pull a handful of simple props together in order to put on an amazing show." Eurogamer
