Activision sues DoubleFine to halt BrutalLegend

[PirateClock]

No Iron Maiden :'(, I also kinda expected some Metallica.

Judas Priest is <3 though.

Lack of Iron Maiden is disappointing.

Lack of Metallica makes sense as Guitar Hero swallowed the rights. But Iron Maiden... yep.

Multiplayer looks pretty nice

Yes, that's Tim Curry doing the voice of the demon leader.

This is one of the most epic ESRB summaries ever

This is an action adventure/role-playing game that tells the story of Eddie Riggs, a roadie who is transported to a mythical world of heavy metal rock. Eddie is armed with a guitar and a double-headed axe, which players can use to slash and dismember enemies. Players can also perform "face-melting solos" (literally melting enemies' faces), meet humanoid creatures dressed like dominatrixes and brandishing whips, and liberate an army of rockers from a life of oppression. Although the storyline is often irreverent and whimsical, the depictions of violence are somewhat intense: Undead humanoids are dismembered with an axe (sometimes in slow-motion); a "Steel-Quilled Blade" causes human enemies to explode into gibs that rain down; machine guns, missile launchers, and sub woofers can be used to kill druids and other fantastical creatures. Eddie can also run over dozens of enemies with his hot rod, resulting in blood effects and more heads and limbs getting chopped off. During the course of the game, characters sometimes engage in suggestive dialogue intended for comedic effect (e.g., "Maybe with all your feedback, you guys could just blow me over the gorge" and "Playtime's over. Now let's get back to the orgy"). Players will also encounter "Skull Rakers" clad in bondage gear and amazon-like warriors dressed in leather outfits that partially reveal buttocks and breasts. Strong profanity (e.g., "f*ck," "sh*t," and "d*ck") can be heard in the dialogue

Oh god, OH GOD. That's cool and all, but the setup makes it look like they're gonna end the game with the "HE WAKES UP AND FINDS OUT IT WAS ALL A DREAM OR WAS IT" trope.

Double Fine doesn't seem like the kind of company that would pull that, but I will be PISSED if they do.

I was thinking about that too, but the whole scene with the metal fiend bashing the shit out of the hipsters seemed too canonical to not be right.
 
Still, I wouldn't give two shits about the conclusion, the whole game is going to be super awesome. Maybe even they are teasing that scene just to give us an unexpected ending when we thought it wouild be predictable. Schafer knows the industry very well.

I've been sold since I saw the name Tim Schafer, they're merely spoiling us at this point.
