I would love to read a few detailed reviews by those on VGC who have actually played the game. I've gotten burned by the magazine reviews too many times lately.

I have posted a review of Too Human in the Microsoft forum. It covers everything but the online aspect as I have yet to go on-line with the game. I wanted to finish the single player first.





Y'know I don't really care if people enjoy the game, but you have to understand that people are going to call Too Human a disappointment based on reviews. Do you really think that every person that called Haze and Lair pieces of shit played the game for themselves? Hell no. They based their opinions off the metacritic average. And with that in mind, according to the metacritic average this game is a below average disappointment.
If you enjoy the game, good for you. But don't call out people for making judgements based on review averages when that's the norm on these forums.
...
Too Human is the 360's Haze.
Why do i say that? because despite the reviews, i BOUGHT Haze, finished it in 2 days and loved it. I'm sure Too Human has exactly the same effect on 360 fans.
lesson to learn? screw the reviews, play the game and enjoy it for what it is.
360 fans, enjoy your game!

Ouch that must hurt. You honestly think 79% is bad ???
You missed some good games.
@Scruff7
best post in this thread. I'm sure I would love Haze if I could play it because it's a co-op shooter.
If I get anytime a PS3 in the future, Haze would be one of the first games I'll get for it.
Fanboy this and fanboy that. Regardless if he is a 360 fanboy or not, he has some valid points. I think people jump all over the hate bandwagon like he says and don't give the game the proper trial it deserves.
Just download the demo, give it a run through or two, and pass judgment on your own rather than listening to the review sites. I really think that most of the reviews on this game are a little skewed to some peoples tastes.
I've played the game and extremely enjoyed it, and I couldn't possibly see how the game could warrant a 5.5. I have quite a few friends that would agree with me. I'm not saying that this game deserves anything higher than a 7.5 perhaps, but a 5.5 is nowhere near where it should be IMO.

What ignorance? The majority of the people that have played the game and in turn write about it say its mediocre. If you like it so much turn off the computer, stop trolling for flamewars and play the stupid game. I for one couldnt even get into the Demo, I cant imagine trying to get through 10 hours of that mess. On to the rant, its funny and all, but Kevin (God bless his soul) is about the biggest 360 fanboi on the planet, anything he says about an exclusive for the system should be taken with a grain of salt the size of a dump truck. Nothing against him, I love him and Attack of the Show, hes just not someone to point to as a "voice of reason". Really? Your going to go the "If you havnt played it shut up" route? I played the Demo for about an hour, and couldnt keep playing, Im not going to waste my money to get the game so I can fit into your idea of someone that is informed, even at rental prices. If you want us to respect your view that its a good game, then you have to respect our view that its a mediocre game. Everyone has an opinion and everyone else thinks its wrong on these boards. |
Well considering that ppl like Obi and KZ2 hate MS and havent played the game, yet hate on the game than they dont deserve respect. I love all three of my systems and I really dont have a huge preference but when someone posts unreasonable crap like they do than they dont deserve respect. Now you played the demo and you ddint like thats fine and I DO respect that. This was, after all for ppl who actually have a 360 and wanted an honest perspective on it.
And yes if you havent played it than you shouldnt be trying to talk ppl out of it b/c of your insecurity about your own one console purchase.
I haven't played Too Human yet, but I have heard that it is a Diablo clone that isn't nearly as good as Diablo ... Much like whenever a clone of an "older" game is released, there are a lot of people who may never have played the original game and may not see it in such a bad light because they have nothing to compare it against.
