Wow 80 hours of gameplay and its not going to have 70 hours of cutscenes. Well this game is disappointing sheesh, who wants to play a game for that long. i mean they will never get goty or the respect if it doesnt have alot more cutscenes. I mean this is which direction games are going that are so l33t. But seriously it cant have 80 hours of gameplay its on a dvd9 if it was on bluray then i would say yeah.

The amount of Sony haters is disturbing. I can't help but wonder if their kids or young adults with too much time and hate on their hands.

I may not own a 360... I will honestly say I'm envious of this game. In a generation were games are more focused on graphics vs content, this is a plus. I will not speak on the quality of this game because I haven't the slightest clue. However, I do wish other studios start focusing on gaming length. I'm tired of beating $60 games in a weekend.

Also note 80 hours of repetitiveness isn't a good thing either. But a good quality 80 hrs of make you want to play is where it's at. I hope you guys get a solid game.

Happy gaming guys.

1.10 - “First play through is probably around fifteen hours, I guess, it depends,” said Dyack.
In all honesty, meh. If I want to waste upwards of 65 extra hours just to hit the level cap, I'll play an mmorpg, where there is some end game and what not.

It's not actually 80 hours long to finish the game from start to end, but to upgrade your characters to the max then yes it can be that long.

Exactly. With all the different classes and loot it will be a game that I will play thru several times. When I'm paying $60 for a game replay value is important.

First day buy for me.

That's an interesting twist on things. Usually when they talk about length they say the duration of the single player. How long do you think Gears of war 1 would be if you factored in the achievement time? How long would COD4 be? How long with mgs4 be if you factored in achieving all of the emblems and unlocking the weapons?

Pretty long if you factor in the cut scenes.

Better not be true. The too human demo gameplay was very repetitive, adding grinding will only make it worser.

6.1 - It was a demo
How about waiting for the full game before you can decide if it's repetitive or not? Any other feign arguments?

Dude, it wasn't repetitive. It was very different. It had so many different weapon s and that was just the demo. You prob only used the weapon you started with.

After playing about 5 minutes of the god awful demo, 80 hours of this game sounds like straight up torture. It doesn't hold a candle to mass effect, even though me was really short. Quality always wins over quantity.

i played through the entire first gameplay sequence, so I was well aware of the bad camera, boring shooting mechanics and slow mundane combat. If a game is truly flawed on the base level like too human is, you don't really have to spend that much time with it to see that its crap. It was the same thing with haze. Five minutes with that demo was enough for me to know the game was crap, and guess what, time proved me right with that one, and it'll be the same when too human is released. Maybe some people will get into the story, and that might make it worth their while, but in the gameplay department, the game flat out sucks.

I wasn't going to buy the game at all until I played the demo. Now, it's a release day purchases for me.

Yup, that's why I like getting demos. I am not sure about this game. The ability to download demos has saved me money, like on HS, Alone in the dark, etc.

I see a lot of people being disappointed with this game, and than I see that there will be people that will praise it just because they are hypin it up. The 360's Haze maybe?

"First play through is probably around fifteen hours, I guess, it depends,” said Dyack.

so the rest is doing the same thing over and over again for 80 hours for armor pieces?

Can you duel each other in this game, is there towns in this game?

You can actually say that crap about any game. After you play the first game on madden, isn't all the games there after more of the same thing.

After you race each track with each vehicle on motostorm, isn't it just repetitive thereafter.

Stop over simplifying it, if you don't like the game then fine, we already know you just a PS3 fanboy trying to add salt to the kool-aid.

First off this has nothing to do with being a 360 exclusive, and yes i did play the demo, and i thought the camera was HORRIBLE, and bored with the fighting.

And for comparing a sports game or racing game to a ACTION/RPG is weird but, you play more for multiplayer at least i do, and also its a different track or team each time til you beat it. Once you beat Too Human in 15-25 hours whatever it is, your going to play the exact same single player experience just to get armor or weapons for what? you can show people it but from what i know you cant duel each other or sell items.

EDIT: I give 360 its probs with its good games(Bioshock, Mass Effect, Gears Of War, more im sure) my opinion on GAMES has nothing to do with console wars even though I think the ps3 is the way to go..... 50 dollars a year even your going to be paying more than a ps3 cost after a few years.... just think about that a little bit.

I would have to see a quote or video where Sony said that because I never heard anything like that and I highly doubt they would, but I mean PC has been doing everything you get on the consoles for years and then some, I understood on the XBOX why they charged because it was new for consoles but now PS3 has almost all the features for 360 and what is the main thing you want to do with online games anyways, just play the DARN game online against other people, all the other features are just nice add-ons.

And I could easily afford to throw money on a unnecessary service or I could use that money towards a brand new video game :)

I think they should of just used basic or standard controls, IMO of course.

Thats like 80 hours of assassin's creed. To much repatition and to much time doing it will kill the game. If its not open world then it should never be more then 20 hours. 20 hours should be the very max.

Yes you only need about 5 hours of suckiness ala Heavenly Sword.

I guess you weren't getting enough attention in the Open Zone so you brought it over here?

5 hour of Heavenly Sword >>> 80 hours of Too Human.

Why? HS has a hot babe in minimal clothing. Too Human has a dude.

@ GiantEnemyCrab

As much as it hurts me to say this, I have to agree with the PS3 "Faithful" on this one. HS >>>> Too Human. I love everything but the gameplay for Too Human. I loved everything about HS. I do hope that those looking forward to Too Human have a great experience with it and that it is a great success.

At least read the article if you are going to comment. It's not even more than a few paragraphs.

"Dennis Dyack, revealed that if you want to reach level fifty in Too Human, the game can be anywhere from 50 to 80 hours in length."

"“First play through is probably around fifteen hours, I guess, it depends,” said Dyack."
