"not quite human" Would actually be a complement seeing as the point of the game is that you are 'Too Human' and must become less human to beat your enemies.

EDIT-
Lol who in the hell disagreed with me?

TheXgamerLive6781d ago

As said I'm sure with it's vastness it may be not as polished as it will be in the near future for next years release but I have a great feeling this game will kick major ass.

Those magic 10's are on the way to clean this all up! edit: I read the article and the funny thing is I wasn't being sarcastic wake up N4G, and metacritic is a joke jcgamer, all those scores from 90's down to 40's.. wake up if u think viva is any better than HS. GOW and GeOW have 100's to 50's? a joke right?

Instead of worrying about 360 reviews why don't you take it up with Sony and demand a good game for once! Sony hasn't delivered on anything so quit hating and wish you had it this good sucker! Too human is shaping up good and will be a day 1 purchase for me! I bet it will hit a million and even sells more than just about any PS3 game in 2008!

Beans, you just pulled that out of your ass you fanboy. Saying that MGS4, one of the most anticipated games next year, will sell less than Too Human, a game hounded by bad press, poor showings, and an imminent lawsuit with Epic, is one of the biggest fanboy statements that I have ever heard. I'm not saying that the game won't be good in the end. I'm just saying that you are representative of what the problem is here at N4g. You and Eagle 21.

I hate to say it, but you obviously didn't read the article...they think it shows promise...and they said to judge the game this early would be a mistake...you probably have never even played a 360 game in your life...why do you care? And that 'magic tens' statement...Viva Pinata is rated a 84 on metacritic...Heavenly Sword a 79...Blue Dragon is rated a 78...Folklore, a 75...and Shadowrun is rated a 66...Lair, a 54...Microsoft doesn't automatically get high scores, don't sound so naive...they EARNED their 10's...and Sony will have to as well...

@ Hatchetforce and jcgamer:

hatchetforce: Ever think that maybe he just doesn't want to list his gamertags? I don't have mine listed. Doesn't mean I don't own a PS3 and 360... Point is some of us, for whatever reason, might not want to list them on this site, any other site, or put them out there in public.

jcgamer: And each one of those games, other than Viva, are actually better than their MetaCritic Score shows. Blue Dragon is easily better than a 78. Heavenly Sword, better than a 79. Lair, despite some bad controls @ times, much better than a 54. Folklore is also better than it's score, and I can't comment on Shadowrun cause I haven't and probably never will play it...

anyway just a point I want to make. Scores are trivial. Very seldomly does a game actually get the review and scores it deserves, and on occasion games get more credit and a higher score than they deserve.

As for Too Human. I'm sure it will credit. But personally I care very little about it. Never been interesting, and I've never been big on KoTOR. While a good game it's just not a game I enjoyed and Too Human will probably be the same way. Might be a game I check out [time permitting] but I think at the end of the day, even if it gets high scores, Too Human is going to be nothing more than a "Good" game...

Isn't that the point of the game is trying not be Too Human ! Not only that on 1up yours Shane Bentonhousin asked the team if they settled the dispute with Epic and they replyed we are not going into full detail of the situation. He also asked if there using the Unreal engine and they said we went back to ground zero and made a new engine for the game. Its all in the latest 1up yours, go ahead and check it out.

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.

RazzerRedux2153d 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.

excaliburps2152d ago

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

IanTH2152d ago

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

Marquinho2151d ago

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

Nitrowolf22152d ago (Edited 2152d 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

darthv722152d 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.

Looper2152d ago

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

Kribwalker2152d ago

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

excaliburps2152d 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.

Fantangoooo2152d ago

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

Neonridr2152d ago

sounds very Polybius to me..

Poopmist2152d 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.

DerfDerf2152d ago

I actually really enjoyed it.

RamRod882152d 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.

HyperMoused2152d ago

I though it was great too, yay us

Anomander2152d ago

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

glennhkboy2152d ago

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

morganfell2152d 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.

Chronicle7802152d 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.

darthv722400d ago

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

Kribwalker2400d 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
