BrĂ¼tal Legend is a 3rd person Action/Adventure game starring Jack Black in the role of roadie Eddie Riggs, who sets on an epic quest to build an army of rockers with only a broad axe, a big block V8 and his faithful guitar in hand. At E3, it was announced Ozzy Osbourne had been added to the character lineup, but Ronnie James Dio's management has confirmed that he has been removed from the game, even though he's been part of the lineup since 2007.
