Forums - Microsoft - Too Human Demo is up!

^ Pretty much. They'll kinda pull a ''Alone in the Dark'' here as well, I guess, which is sad because I think it's a good demo.



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

This is a first day purchase for me.

But this 10 year stupidness has gone way way too far.

They had the initial concept plans for the PS2 and it was in pre-production (as in the same way Getaway and Eights Days were before they got canned).

Then in a way, Too Human did kinda get canned, because SK got projects for MGS:TS and Eternal Darkness (and some other games, I forget).

They only started working back on it when MS sent their MGS staff and re-invigorated their desire to continue the concept. This happened probably around 2006.

Therefore, this is a 10 year delay on a concept, but 3 years of actual development time.

Is this too hard to understand?

 

No pretty easy to understand , i just never knew that . I'm going to disregard that information however as I won't be able to make as much fun of the game if it flops.




Downloaded it and played it yesterday... very cinematic, loved the cutscenes and art style.

Gameplay however was a mixed bag for me... controls took a little getting used to and i had some trouble targeting the right enemies, espeically when theres a whole swarm of them. Combat seems like it could get really repetitive but hopefully the more weapons/upgrades u get will balance things out and break up the monotonous hack and slash style. The co-op mode seems like a really good addition just wish i couldve tried that out.

The game's presentation to me also felt very similar to Eternal Darkness, like the fixed camera angles when you're in pseudo-cut scenes and walking down long hallways, and the traveling between realms to the "Wyrd" was interesting as well.

Also, the one thing i didn't like is just as the demo started to get going it ended... my actual gameplay time not including cut scenes was about a half hour or so, way too short for a game like this. Oh well, maybe id give it a rental to get deeper into it but im not sold on it just yet.

 

Edit:  Plus, I dont think this game was worth the 10 year wait either considering it was in development for 3 different platforms... I'd much prefer a sequel to Eternal Darkness, that game nailed everything... presentation/visual style, combat, great story and dialogue, and  freaked me out  a couple times as well, which always counts for something.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

Too Human = 10 years + massive MS Hype = not AAA. This will get ugly fast. I am not a 360 fan and I could care less if this is a good game, but after the beatings that have come from some less than AAA Sony titles, don't be surprised if a thread is created for each negative review or impression.

Now take some nectar and move on.



Thanks for the input, Jeff.

 

 

^ Sure, but there's no reason to take it personally. I mean, you didn't develop Lair, or heck, even Haze!

By the way, I thought EaglesEye379 explained that whole ''10 years'' thing perfectly enough.

^ As I mentioned previously, I couldn't care less. I didn't develop or play any of those games. Just don't be surprised with a lot of negative threads if Too Human under-performs.



Thanks for the input, Jeff.

 

 

Well I've never posted anything negative about Haze or Lair since i've never played either and probably never will. Which is why I find it so funny that people who have clearly not played this game, and probably never will, choose to say it is poor. Even going out of there way to lie and say they have played it when it's clear they haven't.

People who have been waiting for this game knew what we were getting, and when we played the game we got exactly what we wanted. For those that have said this game is a dumbed down version of diablo...I'm not sure how having more classes, more attachments, more Spells, more weapons, more armor, and more of just about everything = dumbed down.

Well said sir.

I have not played the demo myself; but I have seen a friend of mine playing it; and I must say that IT IS HORRIBLE, the animations are soooo crappy. Aside of that, considering all what I have been seen in the trailers; I have to say that this game is a very bad one.

Maybe it is gonna be the HAZE or LAIR of the 360...... or worst.

 

Seeing and playing are completely different. It could look like shit, but play fun. Like most people have said on here, the graphics aren't the best, that isn't the main point of this game. The game is based on character building and item collecting. If your not interested in this type of game, then you have no reason to comment on this type of game. It's like me playing Cabela and saying it's a piece of shit or Bass Fishing. I have no clue on what to look for, I don't understand the concept. If I don't like Hunting or Fishing it's going to be shitty in my eyes from the beggining. For people that do like that kind of thing, those games might be the best outdoor games they've played.

The main point is, you need to like this kind of game in the first place to even have a valid opinion. Don't think that every game is made for you and for your liking, because they're not. By you commenting on something you have no interest in, will just scare away people that might actually like this type of game. But if that's what you ment to go out and do, congratulations for spreading FUD.

But then again, I could be wrong. You might actually have no bias towards any game system, might actually like this type of game, might have actually played it(but not admitting to it), gave it some time to understand the concept and how it plays. Then i'm sorry.
