I"m playing for the story ! I have a Wii and dont care if the polygons are less smooth. Seriously. I’ll be happy I dont have to fork out for a new console.

The only version of Psychonauts I played I’ve played is the PS2 one, and I loved it. Just shows how good the Xbox one must be.

Sorry for double post/comment, I notice the info was pulled down on the site, so its possible that some (or all) of it was not true.

I dont like this, I dont like it wont bit. Much like the terrible PS2 port of Psychonauts this could slightly tarnish what is an otherwise AWESOME game.

Yeah, I definitely have extreme reservations about a Wii version. If it does turn out to be a poorly handled port, I’d hate to think people buy that rather than wait until they get a PS3 or 360 and then end up with a considerably tainted experience of Brutal Legend — sticking in their memory as a mediocre title for all time rather than a (Hopefully!) awesome one.

I’m not sure how I feel about this, and that’s coming from someone who still only owns a Wii of this generation’s consoles.

Brutal Legend is pretty clearly a game heavily reliant on the 360/PS3 hardware it was built from the ground up for, and I’m not just referring to the visuals. Last minute Wii ports of games that were intended to be exclusive to the 360 and or PS3 tend to turn out terrible, are vastly different games (and if Double Fine isn’t porting, who would want that?) or both. I love the Wii, it can pull off visuals that a lot of people wouldn’t suspect, and this is the type of game that the system desperately needs more of, but seriously, is this even going to work in such a way that will do the game justice and make anybody happy? See: the PS2 port of Psychonauts.

Obviously, anything that gets Brutal Legend to a wider audience is a good thing, but if this decision is true it’s clearly prompted by the Wii’s staggering install base more than anything else. If you want to port Brutal Legend to an additional platform, make it PC. If you want to port a Double Fine game to the Wii, make it Psychonauts.
