Double Fine and some new game scans!

by Amber on October 15th, 2007

After waiting a long time to hear some news about Double Fine Games new game, we finally get to see some scans that shed a little light onto what we’ll soon get to play. The new game that’s being produced by Double Fine is called Brutal Legend and it’s everything you’d expect from a rock n’ rollin’ Tim Schaefer game. I mean, just take a look at the scans over at the Double Fine forums. Go on… read through the scans (which have the smallest print EVER in the world of print). You know you want to.

Okay, if you don’t want to, I’ll give you the skinny on what you’re going to expect from the new Double Fine game. You can expect craziness, that’s what. Okay… Here’s the story. There’s a roadie named Eddie Riggs who is awesome as far as the roadies go. And he has a cursed belt buckle, which leads to the demise of the human race. No, seriously. He gets blood on his belt buckle and the belt buckle’s beast comes to life, taking Eddie through time into a world ruled by demons who enslave the human race. Doesn’t that sound cool?! This weird world is also the world of rock legends, who kick some ass and play a mean riff on a guitar. These rock legends are so cool, that they literally become Gods. It all makes sense, doesn’t it?! The only thing left behind after these Gods go to rock heaven is their rockin’ relics - you know, their guitars. None of the humans or demons understand these awesome relics, but one man does. Eddie Riggs.

Eddie, upon being thrust into this strange, yet awesome world, gets to kick some ass, find some cool people to hang out with and free this world from the clutches of evil demons by rocking out at the world’s biggest rock concert of the century. Sounds pretty bad assed doesn’t it? It’s a good thing I’ve been playing a lot of Guitar Hero lately, or I wouldn’t have had any idea what half the article was talking about.

Can’t wait to see the game. Oh, yes. We shall rock until we cats can’t rocks no mores.

And according to this article over The International House of Mojo, I can quickly sum up what else we can expect from the game, because I can’t read through the little print of that article any longer. Here it goes:

• You get to make people bleed with your very own battle axe. Sweet.
• It’s an adventure with a RPG feel. Sweet Jesus.
• There is an online multiplayer mode to rock out with your friends across the seven seas.
• Lots of missions so you won’t ever get bored.
• The game shall be released on the PS3 and the XBox360. DAMN IT

I’m sure we shall learn more about the game as we get closer to the release date which is… well, I don’t know when. But I’m sure it’ll be one of these days.
