Brutal Legend Best of E3 09 Best Multiplatform Game Winner

Tim Schafer and the fine folks over at Double Fine had great success with their heavy-metal love letter Brutal Legend, but it appears that the team is leaving Eddie Riggs behind as the developer is currently hiring for work on an original IP.

While Double Fine is “always recruiting everybody...ALL THE TIME!,” they are especially interested in finding a senior gameplay programmer and a senior producer/producer at the moment. Now, whether this “original IP” is in fact a “new” game isn’t clear, but I’m waiting to hear back from Double Fine about it, so stay tuned.

Should the need arise, feel free to E-Mail me your tips, suggestions, and/or personal philosophies, or follow me on Twitter.

    "great success with their heavy-metal love letter Brutal Legend" I thought Brutal Legend didn't sell so well? I mean Darksiders sold more and X-Play rated it 2 out of 5, I bet you guys love hearing that! Still, I wish every game Schaffer makes is a success, seeing as I loved Monkey Island 1 & 2, Grim Fandango and Psychonauts. Brutal Legend was okay, not as good as the other games I mentioned. Still, I'm excited for this original IP Double Fine is working on.

    Brutal legend rocks. And Endie Rings wich was cast by Jack Black made that game from good to awsom. And it was one of the best game chariters. And smashing guys in metal world was original. I thing this game should contine.

    This news is nearly more exciting than anything announced at E3. If Tim Schafer and Double Fine can deliever another inventive title on par with Psychonauts, I will be one joyous gamer!

    I hope it's a new original IP, I like it when game companies create something new.

    If Brutal Legend's combat was better it would have been a great game, I still really liked it but I'm not a big fan of RTS anymore.

    Although I was disappointed by Brutal Legend a bit, anything made by Tim Schafer is worth buying, so I happily await his next project.
