I sure am. Tim Schafer is such a legendary game designer. His games are always so fun. Grim Fandango is just something too good and now I tried the Psychonauts the first time and wow just WOW. When I play it I can't wait to see new levels (characters too) most of them are just too awesome.

Brütal Legend: http://www.brutallegendgame.com/us/index.html

Even the Double Fine sites FAQ is fun to read :D
I love Psychonauts so much! Double Fine is the greatest company of all time!

That is not a question, but something about the way you talk tells me that you are a person of exceptional intelligence and good looks. I kind of understand why everyone likes you so much now. I predict an excellent year ahead for you and your family.

Are adventure games dead? If yes, then what killed adventure games?

Next person to ask me this gets a punch in the mouth.
Also I don't mind if there is talking about other adventure games (old&new) too. I love adventure games. I just bought the season one for Sam & Max and it's really good. Some of the situations are so fun that I can't stop laughing... good stuff.

I think there was some news that the game is fine. That was the only thing said so I don't know what it means. Still for the PC they could always use Steam or Stardock...

Wow, I can't believe it. This guy's games are always in trouble. Anyways, I have Psychonauts for PC and I just couldn't get into it.

Brutal Legend Rocks Out With Electronic Arts: http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/56338
Following months of uncertainty and rumors, Electronic Arts today announced its EA Partners label will publish Double Fine's third person action/adventure game Brutal Legend.
Nice that they got a new publisher. I can't wait to try this out.

Yet one more reason why Brutal Legend will rock . . .
Tim Schafer showed us the opening cinematic for Brutal Legend at PAX, where they revealed the band that Jack Black's Eddie Riggs roadies for: Kabbage Boy. It's a band full of hipster d-bags (one guy wears a Phantom of the Opera half-mask) and they think they're metal. The only problem is that they sound like every emo-alternaband out there, much to Eddie's chagrin. Hopefully we'll get to reveal who's in the band soon, until then just let your speculation run wild.

All of that inside, the cinematic included a very novel way to select if you want to hear the super-cussin' & swearin' version of Brutal Legend, or go the sanitized and parental-safe route. Eddie notices one of the musicians crawling around on top of his behemoth-sized, Stonehenge-on-acid set (which Eddie has already been chastised for not tailoring to their "tween" audience), and is not happy. He spouts, "I don't know how many times I've told you not to crawl around up there! I don't know what the F....."

And then the game freezes. A menu screen pops up and you have to choose if you want to hear naughty words or not, and when you resume he finishes the word appropriately. Much better than choosing from a menu screen, eh? There another option-setting moment like this a bit later in the scene which was cut short, but we imagine it'll have something to do with violence and blood spurts.
Thanks for making even the settings fun, Double Fine.

That scene is very funny, Joystiq are kinda out of line for spoiling it without a warning really. Spoiler tags added.

Rocktober will be a good gaming month indeed.

With stuff like Brütal Legend, Fallout 3 goty, alpha protocol, operation flashpoint, Forza 3 and tekken 6 i don't see how any enthusiastic gamer will have money over for anything...and i' sure iäve missed a few interesting titles still.

i'm not buying a single one of those, only one that i am is ratchet and clank and possibly demons souls if i can bring myself to import it (seeing as it's suposedly so god damn difficult) definately be giving some of those a good rent tho. might even give forza 3 a go since i'm enjoying GT5 prologue quite a lot more then i thought i would.

I'm down with you on the whole too much gaming in Rocktober thing. Got my Google calender lit up like a Christmas tree that month, with release dates of games I want. I normally rent a lot, but the later half of this year is proving particularly tempting on the purchasing front.

Alpha Protocol, Brutal Legend, Uncharted 2, Borderlands, Dragon Age: Origins and GTA IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony, are all 'must haves' next month.

Along with other titles like look very promising like Demon's Soul (PS3), Risen (360), A Boy and His Blob (Wii), Silent Hill: Shattered Memories (Wii), and Operation Flashpoint 2, Rocktober is going to rock indeed.

Guys in work were very positive about Borderlands, it's a shame it comes out so close to Brutal Legend. I'm definitely focusing on that, it's awesome! Am more or less ignoring everything else that month. ODST the month before and Assassins Creed 2 in November.

Just played the demo and this game turned from must get to I fucking must get this. I might have to pre-order the 360 version. I bet there is PC version later too but I think I can't just wait it.

Graphics look really nice and I love the characters facial animations. Those make the cutscenes even better. Those info boxes have nice style too. I played the demo 3 times in row.. Rocktober FTW :)
