Hands-on with Too Human (Gameplanet)

Gameplanet recently had the opportunity to play Too Human, the Xbox 360-exclusive third-person action RPG currently in development at Silicon Knights.

The concept of Too Human has a lot of potential, but will they be able to pull it off? After playing the preview build, Gameplanet's writer is convinced they can.

If time and $$$ make a great game....

Too Human SHOULD be amazing.

plenty a tool6549d ago

yep, seeing as they started work in 05, then had to stop. and start again in 06 with their own game engine. i can see why you are still claiming that game on paper for ten years is development time.

seeing as they built their own game engine in 06, does that mean they are using a ps1 game engine as the fanboys like you want to convince everyone they are????????

amazing, not a few days ago there was a thread claiming that too human was gonna flop. which attracted over 130 comments. ofcourse a thread giving the sony fanboys something to attack is gonna get alot of hits. but now this one is a positive thread...it will barely make 20 replys.

LaChance6549d ago (Edited 6549d ago )

money and time can make a great game but I think you need talent too : look at KZ1 = big budget and time BUT no talent = crappy game.

MGS 4 = HUGE budget and ALOT of time + HUGE talent = excellent game.

BTW I dont think Too Human is a BIG budget game like Gears , MGS or KZ.Just look at it...

Anway cant wait for this game. If it lives up to the hype of course.

HighDefinition6549d ago

Lachance about MGS4.

"sorry man but 4 years and one MASSIVE budget can do wonders on any console , even the Wii."

Ironic.

mariusmal6549d ago

look it's a troll. hide your wife and kids.

HighDefinition6549d ago (Edited 6549d ago )

How Am I a troll? I have as many bubbles as all of you COMBINED.

Anyone?

Many Many people have said what I said (just about MGS4), I just repeated it (about Too Human).

Ironic.

mariusmal6549d ago (Edited 6549d ago )

uuu he's got zee bubblez.

seriously mate. if the hat fits you...

Fallen_Angel6549d ago

The fact that so many compare the game to daiblo makes it a must buy game for me

GiantEnemyCrab6549d ago

"How Am I a troll? I have as many bubbles as all of you COMBINED"

You got those bubbles because when you submit stories to the front page you receive them.

But you bring up a good point. Why are people complaining about his trolling and not hitting the negative feedback button? It's the button next to his name with a red "+". Click that and give negative feedback.

Money and devs skill have more to do with it and SK makes good games.

That logic suggest Alan Wake and Killzone 2 will be great lol.

Lets not confuse fleshing out ideas and story... wanting to work on creating this world of TH *with* actual game development, this game has been in development no longer than some of the other games seemingly taking for ever this gen.

Some people that may not get the gamplay SK wanted for this game(Costs, engines blah blah blah issues)has little to do with what you're implying with you missunderstanding or ignorance when it comes to the vision of TH being very old vs an actual state of having something to make it happen thus the start of the actual developmet.

sonarus6549d ago

Too human will be worst 360 exclusive this yr but better than all PS3 exclusives combined. I'm not counting MGS4 because its coming to 360. My uncle works at mc donalds and he met a customer who worked at radio shack who sold a cell phone to a guy who works at gamestop who says he has it in the gamestop computer.

Ri0tSquad6549d ago (Edited 6549d ago )

Just enjoy the game :)

Lol @ sonarus

JVIDICAN for fanboy of the week ;)

Polluted6549d ago

So far my fanboy vote goes to you, JVIDICAN for the annoying 1337 speech, but sonarus keeps beating you to the punch. This could be a close one.

mistertwoturbo6549d ago

lol sonarus is on a roll today. It's funny how people think he's serious when there's an obvious amount of sarcasm.

dhammalama6549d ago

of course now I know that they are, it's still pretty annoying to see all this fanboy sh!t on here all the time. I know they are joking, but the honest fanboy propaganda is already a fvcking joke. I don't care if you are trying to win fanboy of the week or not, keep your lame comments to the open zone.

Besides, the fanboy of the week competition, whatever it is, should just be to single out all the retarded fanboys so that we can all point at them and call them douche bags.

InMyOpinion6549d ago

You are missing one thing, real fanboys aren't allowed in the gamer zone =)

You need to get banned to the open zone if you want to be taken...seriously(?).

JVIDICAN6549d ago

and get overshadowed by the likes of pog mart and nasim?
we wouldnt stand a chance lol

power of Green 6549d ago (Edited 6549d ago )

How does one get this type of reaction for saying it is not smart to assume a game will be great based on the money spent and time spent on it?.

What is wrong with pointing out to number One that this game has been in developemnt as long as many games this generation and that Too Human was an idea(never was a game back on last generation hardware) and It would be like saying *lets say GRID* GRID was being developed for other platforms 10 years back being put on the back burner then saying the new GRID was in developemnt for 10 years.

(wouldn't even be the same game and would be foolish to assume what was being done 10 years ago has anything to do with GRID when it finnally released on the 360).

When PS3 fanboys say that Too Human Better do this; it better do that! based on how long the concept has been on the back burner they need to state that about the Story as if what Too Human can do or what it looks like (basically the core gameplay) has anything to do with what was being cooked up in the past falling short of being anything more than tech demo's etc.

InMyOpinion6549d ago

Dark Sniper would have you for breakfast =)

The Wood6549d ago

that guys been in the open zone so long i almost forgot about d sniper

mariusmal6549d ago (Edited 6549d ago )

you just unlocked achivement "fanboy of the month"
hey you even have the right to be in the centerfold.

u wanna know how i know that ?
my uncle works in a sexshop andm he sold magazines to bill gates and his wife.

Mr_President_6549d ago

Look at other 360 games. Gears 2 looks hot. Fable 2 looks hot. Left4Dead isn't all that hot but it looks extremely fun. Too Human doesn't look hot and it doesn't look fun. Sorry but its not on the GeOW2-F2 level. Your better off holding that 60 for an extra week and picking up IU.

Scrooge6549d ago

I was just looking at the pics and thinking to myself how awesome the graphics and detail look. But I guess everyone does have their opinions, we'll have to agree to disagree.

dachiefsman6549d ago

i'll agree the graphics don't blow your mind but just like left 4 dead TO ME it looks fun as hell to play!

poos36549d ago (Edited 6549d ago )

haha i feel sorry for ps3 owners this year the onslaught of games from 360 this year will move ridiclous amoutn of consoles when they re;leaess hahaha ps3 only had mgs4 hahaha we have too human ( aaa titles) gears of war 2 aa.fable 2 aaa,left for dead aaa,infinte discovery aaa,last remanant aaa, hahah yes i feel sorry for ps3 owners that lie a lot.

AssassinXIII6549d ago (Edited 6549d ago )

Too Human Free for Xbox Gamers - Download It Here

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.

RazzerRedux2167d ago

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.

excaliburps2167d ago

I completed it and kinda liked it. Controls were iffy but overall, I dug it. Shame Dyack was crazy. xD

IanTH2167d ago

Glad to hear it! So, when did you get out of the institution?

Marquinho2166d ago

Too Human was "The Order: 1886" of the 360.

Nitrowolf22167d ago (Edited 2167d ago )

I have never played this, mostly because I didn't own an Xbox prior to a few months ago Def. will check this out

darthv722167d ago

It certainly has a cool story and its a good game. it was just marred by long development time and kind of egotistical creator.

Looper2167d ago

Hey!! I was told survivors had all signed an NDA! I'm telling!

Kribwalker2167d ago

i really liked this one too. Always wished for a sequel, but sadly i don’t see it in the cards

excaliburps2167d ago

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.

Fantangoooo2167d ago

I can't count the number of times I finished this game gridding for gear. Weird control but I liked it

Neonridr2167d ago

sounds very Polybius to me..

Poopmist2167d ago

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.

DerfDerf2167d ago

I actually really enjoyed it.

RamRod882167d ago

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.

HyperMoused2167d ago

I though it was great too, yay us

Anomander2167d ago

Beat it as well. it had a good story line. Overall it was decent.

glennhkboy2167d ago

I remember that I played the 1st stage. The control was so bad that I couldn't force myself to continue.

morganfell2167d ago

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.

Chronicle7802166d ago

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.

Phoenix Down 87.0 – Too Human

Denis Dyack would disapprove.

darthv722415d ago

I liked this game. It has it's flaws but the story and mechanics are pretty good. It still holds up today.

Kribwalker2415d ago

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
