Obviously amused us for entirely different reasons.

It amused me because I too used to be called out for only posting a certain kind of news.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

I got two copies of Too Human (one unpacked) :)

Game was crap imho.

I bought it used I think around $4ish shipped on eBay and promptly traded it in to Gamestop. I gave it a few hours, but the controls were pretty damn wonky. They should have just taken the Diablo approach.


The part of above is simply factually incorrect.  The controls were incredible.  Definitely best combat this gen.  That said, it does take an adjustment period.  I dare you to play a high level berserker and not be amazed by how awesome the combat is.



There is no reason why they shouldnt.   With the amount of time the spent on the first one they have laid a decent groundwork for the remaining 2 games.  If im not mistaken they have the story written for the entire trilogy.  And since they built an engine from the ground up they have alot of assets taken care of for the next couple games. 

Its kinda sounds like Killzone 2 & 3 to be honest,  first game takes 5 years,  second game takes 2 due to all the groundwork being setup already.  Just some minor tweaking is needed.

i actually enjoyed the first one, i do admit it got repetitive towards the end but i really like the whole 1 stick combat thing and the story was a great idea.

i always had a feeling they'd continue it as silicon knights dont really have any other franchise anyway so it would make sense to return to too human

i hope when they do return its more a reboot than a sequel as most people wont have played the original so wont no the story



End of 2012 prediction:

xbox 360 : 73-75 million  playstation 3 : 72-74 million  wii : 104-105 million 

Most hyped for :

Bioshock: infinte, The Last Of Us, Alan Wake's American Nightmare and Agent

Better companies, with less bad games have gone under... Silicon Knights should have 3 years ago..


Which bad games are you talking about? Eternal Darkness was amazing and Twin Snakes in my opinion was alot more enjoyable to play then the origionals. Too Human is the only game of theirs I have heard alot of negativity about.

Honestly I never played Too Human, but I don't think they should be doing a sequal unless the title was profitable. Honestly since the studio has been struggling to stay afloat since its release I'd say it obviously wasn't profitable enough to justify a sequal.

Its like High Voltage with Conduit 2, sure Conduit had its fanbase and some people think the game was amazing. It was even profitable but the sales were still considered low for a shooter. However High Voltage decided to launch a sequal anyways, now here we have a flop so big it could mire High Voltage forever.

I think if Silicon makes a second Too Human that will be the end of them. I know Too Human is the founders baby they want to make it so badly. But sometimes you just have to let things go. Theirs no point in being suicidal Too Human 2 would not bring in enough cash to keep the studio afloat till Too Human 3.

Silicon needs to release some new IP or liscense some existing IP. When they are making a good profit and their titles are selling immensly that is the time to think about Too Human 2 or 3. Not while the studio is still struggling to stay afloat!

Very different views here on Too Human. "Great", "sucked".

I'm confused. I thought the consensus was that it sucked. But I might at least check out some "Let's play" videos of it on YouTube now.
