Overall, the problem with Too Human it just doesn't stand out in any meaningful or significant way. While stuff like the graphics, controls, gameplay and inventory and item system each seem satisfactory on their own, collectively they combine to produce a generic RPG that doesn't really seem strong in any particular aspect.
If you're the type of gamer who is easily had by RPG's in your quest to level up, then Too Human will probably keep you occupied from start to finish, but even then you can do that with a rental. For everyone else, go play Mass Effect instead.
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.
its still a AAA title no matter what the reviews say. and if you disagree you must not no what AAA means. : P
the majority doesn't seem to like this game, must be worth a rent though. no?
another too flop review, i think the xbots had enough, stop kicking them when they are already down..
How when games like Lair and Haze, there were tons of people bashing the games and not the review system. Suddenly, an expected hit for the 360 comes out and gets low scores and then all of a sudden the review system is broken. Sorry, but we take the good with the bad and yeah, from the start of it all I have thought the review system was broken but Too Human was not the first game I thought was caught up in the mess. Heck, you could say that GTA4 was a debacle as it should never have gotten a 10 out of 10 but rather an 8. Lair got bad reviews because the developer forced us to use a new control scheme... Sorry, but they raved about the graphics and said the story was good but yet due to one flaw, it received a 4 and a 5 from just about everybody.
Total Flop confirmed... It's a pretty sad mark.
I hope Banjo will manage to score a bit more, I don't have any 360, but I think everybody should have one or two nice games to play anyway, and the 360 owners definitely didn't have theirs this year.
5.5 is ultra low. Only possible on 360 ?
10 years for a 5.5/10 game : achievement unlocked !
