Brutal Legend

I really wanted to like this game. I'm a rock fan but not really into heavy metal but I still was very interested in Brutal Legend. But......the camera. I don't usually have one feature or annoyance break a game for me but the camera is horrible. It spins around the character at the most inopportune times and the distance setting is just too damn close usually. One of the developers on a Steam forum mentioned that they couldn't change it when they were porting it from console to PC so they were aware of the problem but just couldn't fix it. Or more likely, due to time/budget constraints couldn't get it done in time. A shame, for me this game will always be a promise of what could have been.

Great combat , Fantastic Music, Gore(lots), Voice's and 60 frames stable graphics it truly recommend this game.

Kind of cheesy. Maybe thats the point. Just feels like celebrity game

The Good: As a fan of Jack Black this game drew my attention as soon as it was released years ago (though I only recently purchased it in 2016). After playing through the game I think the greatest aspect of it is the game's simplicity. It has a clear vision and is not trying to do too much. The writing is straightforward and solid, as are the characters. The graphics all have a consistent aesthetic, a combination of Saturday morning cartoon and heavy metal album cover art (which somehow brings my mind back around to Jack Black). That consistency will help the game to continue to age well graphically. And the gameplay is relatively straight forward, with room for strategists, button mashers, and experienced attack combo artists all in the same playthrough. The Bad: In some of the more action-oriented parts of the game the camera was a real distraction. It wrenched itself away from your control at random times and otherwise did not move quite as you would expect. Sometimes that made it feel like I was wrestling with the game to control what was going on. But by far the worst aspect of this game (in connection with the camera problem) was controlling the car. It accelerated too quickly and turned too sluggishly to navigate the tight roads all over the world map. The smallest dip, bump, or rock in the terrain caused the car to get instantly stuck or would send it spinning wildly out of control. Luckily, for the most part, the car can be ignored. But there are some vehicle-combat focused parts of the game that were made almost impossible because of these problems. The Verdict: A solid choice, even at full price. You can control your armies like a demonic general from above, or jump right in with your troops and join the party with your axe. The writing was humorous and full of charm. And skirmishes with AI opponents extend the replayability of this title after you finish the single-player game. I hope to see a sequel to this game someday.

One of Double Fine's classics. This game is an open world platformer with a few RTS stages. While this game is obviously incomplete, what is there is still a good game.
