If you caught the official preview in the latest Game Informer, you know this is going to be nothing short of kickass once it's finally released. If you didn't, it's Tim Schafer's latest game (the same guy who made Psychonauts), which is planned to be an epic tribute to Heavy Metal, with the main character voiced by Jack Black, and with plenty of cameo appearances from various metal superstars. The general premise seems to be some melding of metal history and Nordic lore, to create a Strategy/RPG/Action/Adventure game the likes of which this world has never seen.

Also, IGN has a trailer.

If you like gaming or you like metal, get excited. Get VERY fucking excited.

Also forgot to mention that the game is expected to release in 2008. I would imagine in mid-late fall.
