Tim Schafer's Brutal Legend

Tim Schafer is a legend in himself. Don't know him? OH YES YOU DO. Especially if you've played any classic Lucas Art Adventure.
The man is the co-designer and brains behind most of the wit in The Monkey Island games, Grim Fandango, and the awesomeness that is D.O.T.T.

He also created one of the freshest, funniest, and cleverest games of last generation: Psychonauts. I loved that game to bits on the Xbox.

Anyhow, the man is making Brutal Legend. God knows what it is, or how it will play. What we do know is that the teaser looks fantastic, features lots of Rock and Roll, and it's got Jack Black in it. A Heavy Metal Golden Axe perhaps? With lots of humour? Excellent!

Excited? You should be!

EDIT: Head over to doublefine.com (his game company's site) where you'll find Tim's blog which is really fun to read, full of great humour. You can tell the man is just really funny.

My favourite quote from his blog:

"German airports have the most pleasant-sounding metal detectors in the world. As the wand passes over your body the sound rises and falls, as if it were whistling appreciatively at your form. It's like being seduced by R2D2.

Amazing."
