[b]Its a Joke. Do you honestly believe that this world war 1 game should have all its soundtrack replaced by extreme Heavyness?
Relax people. Good lord.
I thought it would be obvious by the way I was dancing, but I guess not.
I like this game. I like the music and wanted to share its existence with you guys. Mission Accomplished. Sheesh.[/b]

10.02.2009 - 00:16 | anonygooseYeah, it was terrible when I tried to play it at first. I just stuck my laptop from "balanced" power mode up to "high performance". Some movies and even flash videos seem to require it to be in High Performance or they slowly die.
Hope that helps!

Ha ha! Oh Joe, you're such a spaz. Mosh pit dancing doesn't work if you don't have any one around to punch. Also that big gun on a wheel is one I think the Germans were building but gave up on it because it was so ridiculous. It's still half built out in a field somewhere. I'm sure someone knows where to find pictures of it. I don't even know why I know about it. Anyway, fun video. Metal makes everything better.

10.01.2009 - 21:19 | LimecatMusic sucks. Sounds like metalcore to me. False metal. Just because it's heavy, doesn't automatically make it metal or good.
Get some real metal, like Cannibal Corpse.

10.22.2009 - 15:05 | LimecatFuck yeah! Ensiferum! Token of Time FTW!
-
10.01.2009 - 21:46 | StochaticEh, no class. It was great with the music it has. Perfect feeling.
-
10.01.2009 - 21:47 | ReamerCannibal Corpse? Next your going to be singing the praises of other shit bands like Cradle of Filth. The music was decent, the "what's up motherfuckers" seems kind of tossed in there and a bit annoying, but other then that it was decent stuff.
The game looks good, but I'm awful at RTS games so I doubt I'll get it, but still, a good concept non the less.
-
10.22.2009 - 15:07 | LimecatCradle of Filth isn't metal. They're hardcore. And Hardcore sucks balls. Cannibal Corpse isn't very good, but at least they're real metal. It was the first death metal band that I could think of off the top of my head. Maybe I should have gone with In Flames. Old, not new. New In Flames is fucking metalcore and mainstream as shit.

10.01.2009 - 21:55 | ThatKidInTheWheelchairLooks interesting to say the least...
Also, not to be knitpicky but the title says XLBA instead of XBLA like it should...just trying to help! :D

I understand the want for a more interesting soundtrack within the game instead of the WWI era, but no offense, there's MUCH better metal out there to be used than this thrashy -core stuff.
In my opinion, I think the soundtrack would be better with the cliche orchestral music found in most war based media.
-
That's the Tsar Tank, developed by Russia in WW1. It never advanced past the prototype stage. I can't imagine why.

10.01.2009 - 23:52 | badcop69nice to see i am not the only one having frame rate issues. they could stand to dial it back a little. other then that this game looks sweriously awesome and i'd actualy pay good points to get it.

I feel with a game like this, that is, a tongue in cheek living WWI tabletop miniature game, the metal would alienate just as many people as it would attract. Also, this sort of metal/epic music is overexposed as far as trailers, and eventually, everything starts to look/sound the same.
Overall it really just doesn't feel like it's in the spirit of the game at all. I'd rather have the tinny, dinky victrola music.

I also believe the orriginal trailer is far superior to your "Joehanced" version. Seriously.... What made Fallout 3 such a great game that stood out among all others, was not its gameplay or its setting (both had been done before). What made Fallout 3 stand out, was its unique mixture optimistic 50's sci-fi with an anarchic wasteland reminiscent of Mad Max 2. The '50s sound and feel MADE this game into something better than your avera 3D RPG game.
"Toy Soldiers" apparently tries to market itself in a similar retro fashion. Their concept consists of table-top miniature models of WW1 much like you've seen in museums and perhaps (if you're lucky) at your father's or grandfather's play attic. For the first time ever, we can actually disturb such a "peaceful" tabletop scene and turn it into a kick-ass war scene (much like we always wanted to as a kid). This gives this game a hint of nostalgia and the retro music fits it perfectly... but I guess you're just too mainstream American (aka superficial) to have a clue. Why else would you like to spoil the mood with generic metal like a zillion of those utterly unremarkable games out there?!?
And like batmann already said : you're not funny. Stick to video game reviews and stop trying to be funny. It just doesn't work....

[b]Ill stick to doing whatever the hell I feel like. Also, why would I take your advice?
The video did exactly what I wanted it to.
The Irony. All your thoughtful analysis for nothing.
It was a joke, no need for your 500 word essay on the merits of fallouts music and your grandfathers attic. J-O-K-E. Dont like it? I dont expect someone like you would. FOR FUN, PARODY, Entertainment.
In any case I can guarantee you didnt know about this game before - and now you do. So Mission Accomplished. That was the point, Added bonus that you commented & defended the game.

10.02.2009 - 04:03 | LittlePancakeI didn't think metal suited for this. That goes better with sci-fi wars.
