Brutal Legend 360

Review

Brutal Legend is an epic metal adventure into the realms of rock. A powerful storyline with a great open world environment that truly is exciting, exhilarating and, well, pretty musical really. You will be awed as you tear through the landscape in your hotrod, throwing flames into the night as you listen to heavy metal over the Deuce's tape deck.
 
9.0 / 10
"One hellishly good game!"

Brutal Legend DLC announced

Electronic Arts and Double Fine have today revealed that the first downloadable content for the heavy metal, third person action game, Brütal Legend will be available this November.

Tears of the Hextadon will be released on Xbox LIVE on November 3 for 400 MS Points and on PSN on November 5, where the two-map pack will be downloadable for free until November 19.

The Brütal Legend Tears of the Hextadon map pack expands the Brütal Legend Stage Battle multiplayer experience with two new multiplayer maps. In the first map, Circle of Tears, vile waters have carved a rough-hewn circular battlefield into a forsaken land that players must circumvent to destroy their opponent. In the second map, Death's Fjord, players find themselves on an icy mountain pass with a dense cluster of fans that lie below, waiting to be harvested by those brave enough to capture them without cover from enemy attack. All players who download the new map pack will receive a free axe, the Blade of Ormagöden.
