Don't miss it if you love metal
Back in the day I let this one pass me by and I'm not really sure why. Years later, my roommate asked me if it was any good and I couldn't really give him a decent answer. We ended up buying it together, second hand, and I immediately regretted not picking it up when it came out. This game is an unabashed love letter to the rock and metal genres. The game world oozes metal, the writing is hilarious and the voice cast clearly had fun while they brought their characters to life. My favorite moment is when Jack Black's character frees a couple of Headbangers and decides on a name for his new crew: "You shall now be name Ironheade! With an 'E' on the end, so people know we're not f*cking around." The soundtrack is also excellent and more daring than I would've given EA credit for otherwise. Cradle of Filth? Dimmu Borgir? I know, I know, some of you will find those bands way too mainstream and/or commercial, but I really hadn't expected to find those bands in an EA game, even if the subject is Metal. The actual game part is decent but not anything special. The world is pretty big and visually varied but offers little to do, aside from collectible scavenging and repetitive side-quests. The story-line missions will have you directing battles in a somewhat RTS-like fashion but it lacks depth and couldn't carry the game on its own. No, this game's strenghts are its awesome world and characters. If you're into metal I can guarantee that you'll love it, but be warned otherwise.
