AU Shippin' Out August 25-August 29: Too Human

I know this is a little late in the game but I had to put my 2 cents in about Too Human. Too Human in it's own right is a great game, very addicting. Absolutely worth the twenty bucks it will cost you these days. The thing that lead to its' down fall is the treasure hunt weapon distribution. The awkward controls get better after some ten hours in the game they become natural. I loved Too Human and hated the weapon distribution. Ironically the newer game Borderlands made the mistake of also using the treasure hunt distribution system which is crap and will lead to that games failure also. The thing both of these games have in common is that the story line, the art, the weapons, the characters, the fighting are all above average, maybe not top of the line but really good in there own right. The other thing is that these games will both be picked on by critics for some of the same reasons. The biggest failure of both of these games is that they both have huge potential, but the weapon distribution and some glitches have doomed them into the second hand basket. Personally I still keep my copy of Too Human, I still love it, I traded Borderlands back into the store today actually. If there were to be a second Too Human I'd reserve a copy or gladly purchase any dlc. The online multiplayer for Too Human still draws a descent enough following that you can play just about anytime with any character at any level.

cant wait till thursday and a weekend of tiger woods 09 fun :)

I was lucky enough to find out about Too Human early enough to not buy it. The demo was at best very colorful, but nothing really new. Hack and Slash with kilt. Sad because it joins the long line of games the makers themselves apparently kick down with aggravating programming blitches long before the low user reviews show up to drop a lid on them.
