Silicon Knights president Denis Dyack isn't concerned with the timing of the release of the Too Human trilogy - with the first game coming during the third year of the Xbox 360's lifespan.
"The engine is built to be scalable as well, so if another platform does come out, we're not worried about it," he told journalists at Microsoft Game Studio's recent showcase event.
Dyack thinks that Silicon Knights will be able to release all three Too Human games on the current Xbox 360 console.
The action-RPG by now-defunct Silicon Knights is now free for Xbox gamers! Check out the Too Human free direct download link with armor sets here.
Fun fact: I'm one of five people to have completed Too Human and actually liked it. It should be noted that the other four ended up in mental institutions....sadly.
I completed it and kinda liked it. Controls were iffy but overall, I dug it. Shame Dyack was crazy. xD
I have never played this, mostly because I didn't own an Xbox prior to a few months ago Def. will check this out
It certainly has a cool story and its a good game. it was just marred by long development time and kind of egotistical creator.
i really liked this one too. Always wished for a sequel, but sadly i don’t see it in the cards
Yeah, it had a solid story and game mechanics. I remember the controls weren't smartly implemented, and every time you respawned, the animation was so long.
I can't count the number of times I finished this game gridding for gear. Weird control but I liked it
Me and my friend beat it so many times. I got the best armor mathematically possible in it. Great game imo but their needed to be more tutorials on how runes work. The one that spawns singularities upon hitting someone was cash.
I beat it too. The controls were weird, but once I got use to them it was okay. I found the story to be actually half decent. Too bad there wasn't a sequel because I really believe if they have fixed the issues the first game had(controls, camera, etc), it could have been a great series.
I remember that I played the 1st stage. The control was so bad that I couldn't force myself to continue.
Fun fact...you're actually one of six :) That game was the reason I kept an Xbox 360 running until they released the very last B/C titles and it was among them.
I thought the game was ok, clunky but ok. Every time I go back to play it though it takes 20 minutes for the controls to 'click' again. Pity most of the advanced combos and controls aren't listed anywhere in the game.
Liked not loved. It's like a cheap dominos pizza it's not great but it's serviceable if your starving
I liked this game. It has it's flaws but the story and mechanics are pretty good. It still holds up today.
i really enjoyed it when it came out.
It was free recently on xbox through BC. Id love to see this revived but sadly i think the legal issues would stop that
He worked in the game industry since the early ‘90s
Oh sad to say not that familiar with this man's work but RIP to this individual, his music must have been amazing.
Very sad news, I really enjoy the Eternal Darkness and Blood Omen soundtracks, masterpieces.
Based on everything we've seen, its clear they have a big hit on their hands. The game looks great, the gameplay seems to be stellar, and they have such depth of play.
Look at the RPG elements, real customization. The themes and stories are unique and original. How awesome is the Spiders idea? Its like a familiar in traditional RPGs, but they have unique skills and classes as well.
The RPG elements are really starting to show through as we've seen more of this game. It is starting to remind me of Neverwinger Nights a cross between and Fallout in some ways. The developers have really thought through the RPG portion of this game. Having the project sit on the back burner until the Xbox 360 helped give them all a chance to *THINK* about the story. That long period (including the two earlier attempts to start the project on other platforms) gave them a chance to really decide what they wanted to build, and it is clearly beginning to shine.
Stellar graphics. 2 player CoOp. A deep and real RPG story and class elements.
After all the new details, this is going to be a great RPG-adventure.
Day one purchase for certain this August.
"It is designed as a multi-platform engine, absolutely," Dyack said.
So there is a possibilty that this could come out on the ps3.
But still, I'll take Gears1 over this, then bioshock, then Too human, then Mass effect on the ps3.
Only time will tell. *sigh*

Looks like this might be a timed exclusive.
Microsoft has the rights to A game, not a sequel of the game. Chances are, most games use the same engine in their sequels, looking at Gears of War 2.
Just like their is a possibility of Mass Effect 2, or Gears of War 3, or Metal Gear Solid 4-5, there is always a possibility.
Sci-Fi Futuristic Norse mythos just sounds too awesome. Still hoping we get 4player co-op but two is still gonna be pretty damn fun.
