Zen: I felt Brutal Legends was a funny & beautiful look at the world of rock from Double Fines point of view. The only parts I wasn't hot for were the RTS bits as it felt forced. Otherwise fantastic.02/12/2012 - 1:34pm
|
DorthLous: Passed 1.5M$. And I'd also say that Brutal Legend is far from being a bad game. I just think it was a few levels under what people expected from the people working on the project.02/11/2012 - 8:25am

Re: Greatest Video Game Fireworks
This is boring filler "news", I want to get angry about something like a rape game.
I'm angry that I have nothing to get upset about >:|
Re: Greatest Video Game Fireworks
Would have been better if they'd just just let them play through instead of splicing them up all over the place like that. I couldn't sit through the whole thing (the splicing plus too much buffering). But I'm glad to see Animal Crossing made it on there, because the fireworks for the game are actually quite pretty.
Re: Greatest Video Game Fireworks
What? No Splinter Cell Double Agent Chinese Newyear level? Climbing up the outside of a building 60 floors up while fireworks being set off everywhere! Blasphemy!
Also Ace Combat 6 mission after "winning" the game, you fly around Gracemaria while fireworks going off...
Re: Greatest Video Game Fireworks
I'd count Mercs 2 myself, depending o nyour definition of fireworks >.>
Re: Greatest Video Game Fireworks
My two favorites are in Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball's opening FMV and during the mission in China in either Splinter Cell, Pandora Tomorrow or Double Agent. I forget which one it was in and I'd have to go through a lot of game to get to it. It was so pretty I stopped for a few minutes. The mission could wait. Those weren't in there, sadly.
Also, agree on the "simply cool" tag.
