dude if i couldn't make that look sarcastic then i REALLY have to get back to school and learn some more English :/Dirtbag 504 said:really dude?
I hope this is sarcasm, because that's just plain, well.... silly.
EDIT:Nah, most be sarcasm.
PSGames said:Ok then, why is this review so freakin short with no details? I mean when an XBLA game has a more in-depth review something's wrong.

I tend to agree with this, but it's not very typical of a higher profile launch... And a game that's what, 10 years in the making and exclusive, pretty much qualifies as high-profile.sp0rsk said:What other details do you need?
Zenith said:4.5, guys, 4.5
Relaxed Muscle said:C- is average, as far as I know 4.5 is NOT average.
If 4.5 was average that means I failed in a lot of test when I should not....
DenogginizerOS said:Too Human is the new Lair.
Father_Brain said:Uh, hell no. Look at Gazunta and bishoptl, for example; their games got beat up by critics, and they haven't done any "for or against" stunts or spouted ridiculous pseudo-intellectual bullshit to justify dismissing the opinions of people who didn't like the games in question.
Which doesn't mean that crap like the MSPaint of Denis committing suicide is remotely defensible, but you're delusional if you don't think his handling of PR is largely responsible for the GAF backlash.

5 was the "average."
1UP said:C+ through C- is average
Relaxed Muscle said:C- is average, as far as I know 4.5 is NOT average.

"C+ through C- is average" according to the reviews page on 1upsp0rsk said:C- is not average.

Odrion said:also by 1up's standard this game is as good as Ultimate Ghouls N' Ghosts.

Darkman M said:Most people already counted too human as fail a long time ago, lair was hyped as the next big thing.
Be sure to give yourself a gold star. You earned it.Always-honest said:glad i can pick out the rotten ones without a doubt.

damn... people cant read today.... I stated I may not agree with all their reviews.Gbeav said:Nah they screw up too. Nick likes giving out high scores and Garnett doesn't know baseball.
It really doesn't matter.
I'm just going by 1UP's own review scale.
since when do they try being unbiased... example, its pretty Clear Shane isn't a fan of WRPG's or shooters.DemonSwordsman said:yeah they just end up working for them. But really, i just think their reviews are crap and they just try so hard to appear unbiased or something but really they are worse than most other sites.
Union Carbine said:This review clearly spells teh doom. Nobody on the GAF has ever enjoyed a game that's scored below 90. When talking about games, we should not speak of gameplay, only of scoreplay. Let's only deal with the important issues.
ElyrionX said:I mean, for fuck's sake, it's not even a B or a 7 or 7.5. We're seeing a C and a 6.75.
If it was an 8, it's not great but it's not bad either. At the very least, it's something that Dyack could go on about. He could have started bitching about publications not recognizing the greatness of Too Human or something.
But this is just pathetic.
Tiktaalik said:God damn the point of the switch to the letter score is to remove the need to minute discussion about pointless numbers and averages. Compare it to school. Is C- a good grade? No it's not, so Too Human is not a good game. Is it average or a bit below average? Who cares, if it were school and you got that mark your Mom would be pissed when she saw it.
Any game that gets that low of a score is solidly in the "ignore" category for me, regardless of whether it's technically average if you do some magic fake conversion to numbers.
That is my problem with the review, not the score. I want details. There was not details in that review. Sounded like the guy does not know what a dungeon-hack is.Dazzyman said:Its a shit review though as it doesnt go into any detail of plot or even graphics quality sound etc... Just seemed to me to be you all know already what its like Im telling you its shit end of. Reading the first page I thought Id missed a page and where is the details about multiplayer other than he thinks its better because its not got cutscenes. What modes does it have etc..? Its not a good RPG and? Is it a good hack and slash then yea or nay?
If the games shit then fine I will just cancel it but Im not basing it on a shit review with a few bits of crap text and some massive screen grabs inbetween.
sp0rsk said:What other details do you need?
And, for what it's worth, though it's certainly not my place to say, and so I'll shut up until others with more authority (since I am merely a PC guy) show up to talk about it: The other 2 reviews that go with this for EGM magazine---written by guys you apparently know better--don't veer much away from this score at all.

TruthJunky said:Does the looting still sound fun to a person who loves looting and upgrading? Yes, I think so.
Does the combat still sound fun to someone who was satisfied by Dark Alliance-style combat? Yes.
Does the game sound like an improvement over Champions of Norath? Not in all ways. But in some ways, yes.
Does the multiplayer still sound fun? Yes.
So, I'm still happy. I play games to have fun. And I still think that my brother and I are going to have a fucking fun time playing this game over XBL. Why care about anything else?
PSGames said:The enemies, the story, how the controls work, level design, graphics, etc... I mean give me enough info so I can make an informed purchase decision...
the demo was fun for me after I initially hated it, based on what aI played id give it an 8... the thing is that DD was constantly glorifying his game as a leap in gaming and has been on multiple whining sprees, so the backlash is understandable.TruthJunky said:Does the looting still sound fun to a person who loves looting and upgrading?

Whether the game is great and misunderstood or legitimately bad, they have kinda treated it like some no-name title from a 3rd tier publisher. Just a 1-page review from a new employee that their reader base doesn't know very well. Regardless of the score, I thought they would at least have someone write a little more about it than that.drohne said:and no, the volubility of too human's creator does not make it more worthy of scrutiny than any other inept game
