Brutal Legend: In the Beginning...

After being sucked through a vortex and spit out in a heavy-metal-themed dimension, Eddie Riggs, Earth's greatest roadie, discovers his true calling. In order to keep on rockin' in the free world, Riggs must assemble a band of heroes to take down the evil Doviculous. Along the way he earns himself a sweet ride (The Deuce), a hot babe (Ophelia) and a weapon of bad-ass destruction (The Separator).

And now you can see how it all begins. Check the video below to witness more than 15 minutes of direct-feed footage, with in-depth commentary from the legendary Tim Schafer. And be sure to come back later in the month for the second part of our guided tour of the world of Brutal Legend.
