GameTap: Too Human Preview - We finally get to see the two-player cooperative mode in action

GameTap writes: "We've already seen plenty of the single-player campaign in Too Human at this point. Actually, just about everyone in the world has seen plenty of it, considering how long the game has been in development, so everyone at a recent Microsoft press event was more than happy to jump in and play some of the game's cooperative mode. The beginning of the cooperative mode starts the same way as the single-player mode--you can select from one of several character classes, each with its own standard assortment of perks and disadvantages that you find most role-playing games.

From there, my character and my cooperative buddy dashed into the first level from the game, which happens to be an old temple located in the snowy mountains. The first set of robotic enemies was quickly dispatched as we both used melee attacks (the other player with a sword and I with a hammer). While this didn't require a whole lot of teamwork, just a few minutes later we did encounter some enemies (specifically missile-equipped ones on higher terrain) that required a little bit more coordination. I decided to take them out using my character's default plasma rifle, which not only has a rapid fire option but can also launch one single blast of energy, which essentially mimics a grenade launcher attack. Meanwhile, my partner focused on taking out other enemies that were lurking around."

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.

excaliburps1554d ago

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

IanTH1554d ago

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

Marquinho1553d ago

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

Nitrowolf21554d ago (Edited 1554d 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

darthv721554d 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.

Looper1554d ago

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

Kribwalker1554d ago

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

excaliburps1554d 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.

Fantangoooo1554d ago

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

Neonridr1554d ago

sounds very Polybius to me..

Poopmist1554d 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.

DerfDerf1554d ago

I actually really enjoyed it.

RamRod881554d 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.

HyperMoused1554d ago

I though it was great too, yay us

Anomander1554d ago

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

glennhkboy1554d ago

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

morganfell1553d 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.

Chronicle7801553d 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.

darthv721802d ago

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

Kribwalker1802d 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
