    Avatar image for chaingangsoldier

    The bad severely outnumbers the good

    Pros
    • Combat is fun when not ruined by camera
    • Cutscenes are well presented

    Cons
    • Camera is terrible
    • Levelling up system is bad
    • Story is uninteresting
    • The same death animation over and over again gets really old
    • Could be a better health system, die way to much
    • Character voices are mediocre at best
    • Bosses aren't fun at all

    Presentation

    Cutscenes are presented very well. The camera is absolutely terrible. Menus could be better sorted. 

    2/5

    Graphics

    Character models are pretty good, aswell as the environment. Really no complaints here.

    3.5/5

    Gameplay

    Can be pretty fun. The camera ruins it half the time. The bosses are really not fun at all. Could use a better health system, you will die quite a lot, and when you do you have to sit through the same 15 second boring death animation.

    2/5

    Sound

    Gun and sword sound effects sound nice. Voice acting and everything else are mediocre.

    2.5/5

    Lasting Appeal

    Not sure if the average person will even be able to finish the game once without getting bored.

    2/5

    Overall

    Worth a rent at best.

    Overall Score: 2/5

    Sounds like you died a lot. You probably didn't take the time to learn how to play. Just winging it won't cut it with Too Human. And your average user seems to be enjoying it, if you use the vast majority of user reviews as an example.

      Too Human- the game that everybody and nobody wants to play. At once. Paradox? You'd think so, unless you saw the recent turd-flinging contest between developers, media, fans, and random people that was the Too Human release aftermath.Too Human is indeed a strange beast, a game who's development I've followed for several years now. For those of you who don't have much background (how could you not?), Too Human is developed by Silicon Knights, the much-lauded developers of titles such as Eternal ...

      Nice premise. Poor execution. 0

      Too Human(Xbox 360) by kariyanine on April 21, 2009

      Almost nine years ago Blizzard dropped “Diablo II” on the gaming community and it quickly became one of the most successful games ever. The game was very well polished, told a great story and for people who love to collect stuff dropped tons of loot much like its predecessor. To this day I still play “Diablo II” and like a junkie chasing the dragon I love to try out new loot drop RPGs in the off chance that it will be as addictive as “Diablo II”. “Too Human” could have been this game but unfortu...
