I never understand the logic behind "Tim Schafer made this game so it MUST be good!" or "it has metal in it, so I HAVE to buy it". There is always the possibilty that Tim Schafer will make a game about metal and it will end up being a turd.
How many people bought Fable becausePeter Molyneux made it and ended up being mad it was only 6 hours long? Will Wright's Spore didn't turn out to be the game everybody thought it would be either.
If you like the concept then fine whatever. But if you are bashing people who don't like it for the reason that The Mighty Tim Schafer made it then YOU are the ones who need to get off of it.

Just because he's Tim Schafer doesn't give him a free pass. However, because I've played most, if not all of his other games, I will give him the benefit of the doubt.
I didn't think I'd like Full Throttle because I had no reference to biker culture.... but as any talented artist that knows how to take advantage of his medium, he made it work.
It looks funny and entertaining which are two great aspects that can make a great game. I wont be buying the (at least not soon) but I definetly want to play it because it looks like a lot of fun and I LOVE metal :)
You know what I think "looks stupid"? This "stupid" thread, that's what! Tim Schafer is one of the most original and critically acclaimed game designers in the industry. Play the game before you make yourself "look stupid" again.
I think this game looks fun. Who cares if the graphics aren't that good, i think they look good and original. I may think this game may live up the the Hype. Usually when its all hyped up to much, its either a Disappointment or a Mediocre shooter. Im talking to you Halo and COD (Though Halo is fun to play with friends though).
I think its a shame so many people are writing the game off because of its 'metal' theme or that it 'looks' stupid.
Its like not getting GTA:Vice City because you dont like the 80's. Nobody liked the 80's. But it has zero bearing on how much you'll enjoy the game based in that era.
Brutal Legend looks to have actual 'character', which you dont see in games that often these days. It looks like a very light-hearted, fun experience.
