  • Epic
  • Ozzy Osbourne as the Guardian of Metal is hands down one of the coolest combinations since Fatboy Slim and Christopher Walken
  • Fantastic characters and humorous story
  • Environments and characters have a great visual style
  • Soundtrack has a wonderful swath of metal
  • Stage battles are fun and challenging in multiplayer

The editors didn't like

  • The game isn’t without its flaws
  • The clunky combat system is sure to get on some players’ nerves
  • Side missions get boring fast
  • Single-player campaign is short

  • Funny, witty dialogue; excellent voice work; engaging strategy combat; hard-rocking soundtrack.

  • Abstract:  Double Fine's Brutal Legend is an unabashed love letter to an era and genre of music that celebrated fast guitar riffs and hard living. It's also a tribute to an epic lore that spoke of conquerors and death--all of which were often depicted at onc...

  • Abstract:  While Tim Schafer's games have earned him a ton of cred with critics and diehard fans, it hasn't always translated into mainstream commerical success (seriously, why didn't you guys buy Psychonauts? It was freaking awesome and should have sold a bajill...
