I think that the most surprising part of this video is where Erik Wolpaw describes his other videogame job as grueling and terrible -- as far as I can tell, the only other game company he's worked for is Tim Schafer's Double Fine. Very surprised to hear that that's such a crappy place to work.

>> ^entr0py:
One problem was that they were so interested in paying homage to the Metal that half of the noteworthy characters were voiced by old drug addled musicians who speak in s sort of mumbling monotone. Yes, Ozzy isn't the only one.

Dude, the aging metal voice overs were some of the best parts! Fucking Lemmy Kilmister, the bassist and lead singer of Motörhead, as "The Killmaster", sends you to the spider cavern to fetch him some freshly spun bass guitar strings to heal your fallen comrade with the soothing sounds of metal -- that was just badass to the core.

To be perfectly honest, you gotta love heavy metal to love Brutal Legend. I agree with almost everything Yahtzee said, but Tim Schafer and Jack Black's sense of humor combined with all the metal fanfare made this worth the buy. In fact, like all Tim Schafer games, I will probably replay this many times over the years.

Everyone who loves adventure games should go play Tim Schafer in: Hostmaster and the Conquest of Humor, one of many awesome minigames on Double Fine's website.

I am so very bummed this is not coming out for either PC or Wii... which are what I have.

Very bummed

Tim Schafer is a god... a GOD people.

Monkey Island
Day of the Tentacle
Full Throttle
Grim Fandango

These games are absolute, indisputable classics. There will be no discussion entered into, they are... he is therefore a God.

(I cannot include Psychonauts for I have actually only played the demo, but it was pretty darn awesome also)

Tim Schafer + Rock n' Roll = win. Everything he's ever worked on has been amazing. Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, Full Throttle, Psychonauts...

Plus! The main character is voiced over by Jack Black; as well as Lemmy, Rob Halford and fucking Dio having rolls in the game. Hopefully It doesn't get cut with the Activision Blizzard merger... None of Schafers projects should ever get cut -- ever!
