Too Human Co-op Scaled Back To Just Two Humans

Kotaku writes: "When Silicon Knights and Denis Dyack showed off the epic Too Human to IGN last year, the outlet was right to call its four-player cooperative multiplayer mode "ambitious." The feature has been scaled back, Microsoft revealed today, keeping Too Human's campaign buddy system limited to just two players.

While the multiplayer aspect may be more limited-at least for this entry in the planned trilogy-that doesn't mean looting droid corpses for an Angelic Skull Splitter Staff of Rising Bellow will be any less fun."

the only thing that had me really looking forward to this was 4 player co-op.

it's off my buy list to a rentaland even then I may not bother.

I had my "if lag>blowup" chip removed from my 360...

Almost every exclusive game should be just as taxing to the CPU. It's just a matter of how efficiently it does it's calculations to achieve greater or lesser results.

le killer5845d ago

i was looking forward to 4 player co-op. still, and rpg with a co-op is better than one without! i thought mass effect should've had co-op also.

ericnellie5845d ago

Most RPGs don't even have co-op! I'm glad they still came up with some type of online element! I even noticed that you can trade items with other players as well!!

2 player co-op should still be fun.

*runs of to a 25 man raid group in WoW*

Superfragilistic5845d ago

It's what made me play the Halo3 campaign more than once! But then again Gears and Crackdown were great fun with just 2 so I assume this'll be much the same. :)

heyheyhey5845d ago

and every one of those 25 will have immense fun CLICKING on monsters

why so many people play so much WoW is beyond me

Montrealien5845d ago

It is beyond you because you have no clue what you are talking about.

*clicks on inventory, clicks on defense spell, gets excited, walks out of grandma's basement for a victory piss*

Your grandmother worked hard on that garden.

Superfragilistic5845d ago

That was awesome! bubbles for both. :)

so 2player co-op is a little disappointing... But I'm still pretty stoked for this game. I actually don't think any of my friends get into the RPG genre, so I wouldn't have had the chance to use 4player anyhow.

Cyrus3655845d ago

I can see 4 player or even 8 player Co-OP for Too Human 2...

SuicidalTendencies5845d ago (Edited 5845d ago )

I think you people are getting a little spoiled with these 4 player co-op games. We should be happy that they at least have 2 player co-op since most games don't even have that included.

Edit: Hey Yo!

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.

RazzerRedux1422d 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.

excaliburps1422d ago

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

IanTH1422d ago

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

Marquinho1421d ago

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

Nitrowolf21422d ago (Edited 1422d 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

darthv721422d 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.

Looper1422d ago

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

Kribwalker1422d ago

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

excaliburps1422d 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.

Fantangoooo1422d ago

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

Neonridr1422d ago

sounds very Polybius to me..

Poopmist1422d 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.

DerfDerf1422d ago

I actually really enjoyed it.

RamRod881422d 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.

HyperMoused1422d ago

I though it was great too, yay us

Anomander1422d ago

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

glennhkboy1422d ago

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

morganfell1422d 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.

Chronicle7801421d 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.

darthv721670d ago

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

Kribwalker1670d 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
