meeeeeehhhhhhhhhhh. the ps2 has betta. this game has been in development since b4 the world began and it still isnt bringing anything new to the table. Still it might still improve. in anycase this game is a lost cause



This title is going to arrive this year. Microsoft placing developer diaries on live is a pretty powerful indication. Once they start arriving your working under a deadline. Whether the title is ready or not. Microsoft will probably force it through before the year is over.

What confuses me is how fellow posters claim that there is not enough information about this title. There is a veritable mountain of information. So you should be able to form rudimentary judgments. I suspect what people really mean is they want a review, because its not a known franchise, and thus isn't automatically good. Which is actually kind of sad. That a game isn't given the benefit of the doubt unless it is a sequel. Now you know why we get the same game every couple of years.

The Story is probably very good given that it is going to span three games, and it is inspired by mythology. Which almost always means a strong back bone of material to work from. The character building seems to be very deep given it is a skill based system, and not prone to recycling like a level based system. The cinematic work looks wonderful, and the music seems to be done well. Even the combat looks entertaining. Should even be deeper thanks to the multiplayer online component.

There isn't a logical reason to be skeptical of this title. We are hardly ignorant about exactly what it is, or what it aspires to be. Nor are we ignorant of the scope of this game. This game is supposed to be good enough to justify two follow up titles. The only reason people seem to be skeptical is that there is hardly any hype, and as long as people are skeptical their will be no hype. Give Microsoft some time and a major add campaign, and the hype will probably show up I suppose.



Looks pretty good. Graphics are the greatest, but frame rate looks nice.

Im wondering if this will be my replacement for Phantasy Star Online?

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

Too Human seems shit. Graphically it's ok, but the gameplay looks like a big stinking pile of crap!

The combat is pretty much composed of only auto-aiming, a terrible design that will hurt the gameplay immensely and take away alot of skill requirement. I know the gamepad is worse than Kb+M, but auto-aim is an awful way to compensate it.

If you're looking for real Diablo clones, then there's Sacred 2, Mythos, Space Siege, Dimensity and Dungeon Hero coming out.

looks good. I wish then had gone into more detail about the RPG elements though.

Also not a big fan of the mobs you kill all being robots.

 I loved Diablo one and two, but to somehow equate playing it to having any skill? Sorry, it's just a big massively fun achievement system. Nothing more.

Apparently it's based on a number of different classes, all with their own unique skill trees that you can flesh out as you see fit.

Look around beyond this video and there is lots of available information.  It seems very different to God of War if only because it is so RPG heavy.

I don't know I love RPGs I love science fiction, but somehow neither Too Human nor Mass Effect did manage to really hype me.
I think you either need an iconic protagonist like Halo, an easy to access storyline. (rebells against empire ..., ) or a movie tie-in. A really sinister enemy also helps. The things you hear about too human are just too vague.

 You obviously know nothin about Mass Effect then. 

 



This is looking damn sweet now. The combat looks alot faster like the DMC's and Gaidens of this world. Definately a purchase for me now.
