Borderlands is going to get a shit ton of sales right off the bat. We know that. Brutal Legend can use everything it can get, right now. If we want to see big publishers continue to take chances on interesting games that don't neatly fit into an established genre, then we have to support those games when they come out. If we wait to pick them up, the gaming community will see them as a failure.

Look at Psychonauts. Very poor initial sales. However, it went on to sell an extremely respectable amount over the course of about four years. It turned out to be a well selling game, but all game journalists (and gamers) still refer to it as a flop. While this is not true, it still creates an aura of failure around a company that makes publishers shy away.

In conclusion: Fucking all of you fuckers buy fucking Brutal Legend.
