Too Human is aiming high. After GameSpy's visit to developer Silicon Knights' Canadian studios, GameSpy was impressed with the game's cinematic flair, the huge potential for accessible but rewarding combat, and instantly addictive combination of leveling up and collecting exceptional loot (hello, Hammer of Grendel.) There are some issues, but there's also quite a bit of time to handle those before the game's release next year.
Spiffy:
+ Focus on accessibility
+ Good storytelling
+ Role-playing system depth
+ Co-op
+ Mapping of myth to technology.
Iffy:
- Frame rate
- Inaccurate control scheme
- Need to see higher-level characters.

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.
SK this game is just a steady 30 fps away from being a monster AAA title, the vids look great, lots of detailed screens, just don't blow it please.
JOY
At least they know what they'll be hammered on when the reviews roll in if they can't fix them.
this game is looking to be fantastic and shows how the Xbox 360 is providing true next generation gameplay with amazing graphics and genre-crossing features.
Definitely going to be one of the big titles of 2008
you guys don't think the animation needs a little work? they look stiff to me
Looks like balls. Looks like another Gears/bioshock/Halo/Mas effect/timeshift/ space man game. A lotta bit played out. Did I mention it seriously looks like crap?
YES......
....JUST YES. This game really does not look good at all. I have a 360 dude. Thats all I have. All these space games are gay... what are u 16? This is the only thing these developers can think of... another robotic,metallic looking game set in a far universe? Lame... just lame. Seriously, I understand we don't want to be disspointed and just defend our console... but this looks like crap. I have the demo on live when he's in the bar and pulls the gun and the robots tears through the wall.... yea... gay as hell. There's just a certain point when I've realized u know what I payed 400$ for a console that has RROD' me twice and still freaking freezes. Halo 3 is kinda fun I guess. I dunno I'm seriously disspointed as is almost everyone I've talking to. This is coming from a SERIOUS HALO FANATIC DUDE. BEEN PLAYIN IT SINCE DAY 1. Bioshock was kinda good for 3 days LOL. A rental. Gears was really good. I really liked gears but now everything just wants to look like it and killzone and resistance. I dunno. Look at the XBLA games. 98% of them are bombs.... and I mean serious bombs. Abombinations of the 80's arcading bliss. Ps3 has alot to offer in the long run. ALOT TO OFFER. They were first and they do eveything better. What else is there to say? I'm dissapointed with my 360 and this game looks like the pits. Same crap dude. I'm WAY BORED of these same similar games. PS3 is where it's at this generation.
