How does this game look generic? How does this game look bland and mainstream?
Please, the people who criticize, show me a game like this...
Let's hear more than a word. Let's hear your reasons.
I'd like to know as well. the terms "generic" and "bland" get thrown around so much in SW that people often times misuse it. I once saw someone say that a particular game's sales were "generic" :?... WTF :lol:.How does this game look generic? How does this game look bland and uninspiring?

XD Seriously? *sigh* Generic sales?
And if anyone knows any games this crazy, which deals with metal and combat heavy sandbox gameplay, plus a guitar to kill enemies, then let me know, please! I must be missing out on some game. :o ;)
I know the writing, characters, and humor are going to be amazing, thanks to the genius of Tim Schafer, but I really hope the gameplay isn't so horribly mediocre and bland as it was in Psychonauts. Honestly, I wish he'd just stick to making traditional adventure games, as he doesn't seem to be so great with action-oriented gameplay. Hopefully he'll pull through with this one though.

Certainly not generic but it reminds me greatly of Deathklock. They rock, lol.I know the writing, characters, and humor are going to be amazing, thanks to the genius of Tim Schafer, but I really hope the gameplay isn't so horribly mediocre and bland as it was in Psychonauts.

I thought the gameplay in Psychonauts was pretty damn solid, tbh.

Well I didn't. I mean, it wasn't bad or anything, just mediocre.

Yes... generic sales. I felt kind of embarrassed for him. He probably thought it meant "not impressive". Brutal Legend, just like all of Shaffer's games are original. The only thing I see influenced by other games is the guitar. Devil May Cry 3 had a guitar weapon remember, but that in no way makes Brutal Legend generic. The style and premise alone are unique IMO.[QUOTE="Aljosa23"]That's one of the reasons why unique games don't get much attention, sadly.It really is sad. Some people look forward to KZ2 over interesting and fresh games like Noby Noby Boy and World of Goo.This game looks hella interesting. I hope more hype it instead of Generic Console Shooters #3298.

Oh my god, I love World of Goo, and what's funny is that it scored higher than most FPSs this gen, LOL.[QUOTE="mitu123"][QUOTE="Aljosa23"]

It's horrendous. Gears 1 was my favourite MP game, but they messed up 2.wiionlygamer
Looking forward to this game! I do have to say cool it on the Kratos comparisons that will not end well!

Yeah, it'll be a good game. Something I've played 3 times already, but in HD.
I'm not a big fan of Jack Black (He's annoying.), but I really liked Physchonaughts, so hopefullyTim Schafer can pull it off again. Hopefully this will also be succesful, even if it sucks. He deserves it for what he got with Physconaughts, which wasn't very much. It's sad when you look at the best selling games of all time to find titles like Mario Kart Wii, Wii Fit and Wii Play outsell the classics by miles.

Much like Halo 3, right?I'm not much of a Halo 3 fan, so yup. I admit Halo, much like GoW, is a good game, though.
That's made by the same guy who made Monkey Island isn't it?
lebanese_boy
Well, the first two Monkey Islands.
Before this game was announced I didn't have a PS3 nor a 360, and wasn't in a rush to get either. After the announcement, I immediately wanted an HD system.
This fall... damn, so close, yet so far away!
Hate to break it to you Bioshock but no Brutal Legend wont kick Krato's ass. Not even if you wish on the first star you see everynight for the rest of your life. Now having said that thanks for the new screens.:D People get out there and buy this damn game don't make it become Psyconauts :cry: that game was pure gold but nobody bought it. Now we will never see a sequel to such an amazing game dont let that happen to BL what ever you do. Oh and Have you seen the Milk Man?

I think it will, but hey, we'll meet back here after both get reviewed.;)
Alrighty :Dwhats your hype meter sitting at for BL I got 8.5 maybe a 9 regardless its still a day1 for me. Damn fall sucks why do they have to stack so many great games in a 3 month window ugh.
Cant wait. Im playing through Maniac Mansion again right now. Day of the Tentacle and Full Throttle are two of my favorite games. Love the wit and humor this guy brings to the table. Hope its great and sells well too.

I'm pegging it at a pretty 9.0. It could very easily get an 8.5, but I'm feelin' a little risky. :P
