GamePro Too Human Review

From GamePro:
"Almost ten years in the making, Too Human has seen its fair share of development troubles. First announced for the original Playstation, moved to the GameCube and ultimately finding a home on the Xbox 360, the game has been a lightening rod for criticism and controversy. But, as the old saying goes, the proof is in the pudding, and while it's not perfect, Too Human definitely has enough going for it to silence its critics. Read on for our review of the Xbox 360 exclusive title, Too Human!"

Interesting score. Might swing my decision...probably not though.

Mao5747d ago

look at all the disagrees I got. Well sorry for pointing out one good review Sony fans. Honestly....*sigh*

PimpHandStrong5747d ago

your letting a review sway you

you had the demo

if you liked it then buy it

Take the pros and cons you read about and make up your own mind. You might find a site that fits with your idea of games! Gamepro gave Warhawk a 7.5 i think? anyway

dont let reviews sway you

joeynox5747d ago

not a bad score from a good game mag.

Qbanboi5747d ago

Well Haze got 3.5 from this magazine. So that mean that Too Human is just .50 better that Haze. xD

DailyAddict5747d ago

no one reads GamePro anymore. They are always just so kind of... I don't even know a good word to use, but their editors always rate hype games great, great games get average scores and anything else just sort of floats at a 3.

Dark General5747d ago (Edited 5747d ago )

Gamepro editors/reviewers just rate games on how fun they are. A 4 out of 5 is a good game but just a good game on their rating scale. They are lenient with all scores and that's what i like about them. When something usually gets a 3.25 or 3.50 and lower you know to stay away from them. Any higher scores and it's a generally fun/good game.

Doesn't change my opinion though that Too Human appeals to me as much as Haze did. Which is not at all and both of them looked bad to me. I did think Lair would be good and i wasn't right about that.

nieto5747d ago

exactly, that's why i trust gamepro more than Ign, Gamespot or 1up.

pixelsword5747d ago

...Nah; who would alter a game's score for money? Surely I jest!

Dark General5747d ago

I would agree with you if i didn't see them writing scathing reviews for other games that were heavily advertised on their site. I'm a regular on the forums over there so i should know. Timeshift, Dark Sector and 1 other game i can't remember all got bad reviews from them and they were advertisers.

This is a pretty good score, for all of the "Flop" talk about this game. I really hope Too Human succeeds, we need more Canadian developers:P

TitanUp5747d ago

have no ideal whats going on with this game but from experience haze and lair i enjoyed both considering their awful reviews bought both.

i like the type of gameplay when i get a 360 im going to buy this one.

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.

RazzerRedux1421d 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.

excaliburps1421d ago

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

IanTH1421d ago

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

Marquinho1420d ago

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

Nitrowolf21421d ago (Edited 1421d 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

darthv721421d 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.

Looper1421d ago

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

Kribwalker1421d ago

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

excaliburps1421d 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.

Fantangoooo1421d ago

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

Neonridr1421d ago

sounds very Polybius to me..

Poopmist1421d 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.

DerfDerf1421d ago

I actually really enjoyed it.

RamRod881421d 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.

HyperMoused1421d ago

I though it was great too, yay us

Anomander1421d ago

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

glennhkboy1421d ago

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

morganfell1421d 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.

Chronicle7801420d 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.

darthv721669d ago

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

Kribwalker1669d 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
