    Okay, the game is not good, but why the hell hasn't there been more games with Norse mythology? I am sick of Roman and Greek crap!

    I really enjoyed this game. Started playing it again the other day. Very, very addictive if you are into loot based games.

    The game is ok. It's not the best game ever like some crazy people claim and it's not the worst game ever either. It's just ok.

    this games has THE worst camera. you cant look like every other game out-there. What is wrong with this dev guy that tough, ok lets how can i make the camera soo frustrationg..oh i know the right analog stick is for the melea. Ergo u have a Japanese-games camera. u walk straight its behind u, u do a 180 the camera is in your character's face. no idea what is in front. Bad game design. and holly crap whats with the 1minute long death..i wanna play NOW!!!


    BTW the video snippets of the character with broken armor is nothing. They played the game and then made a review, the snippets u see arent necessarly how the reviewer played the whole game its just examples

    I was put off getting this game from all the bad reveiws it got, but all my friends say it's great, but then, they're idiots... I'm not sure about this game...

    worse review..ever( but its his opinion ..so it doesnt bother me too much)

    download the demo off live you could save yourself $10. The beginning, where the demo takes place, is where the game seemed most fun to me. Those two trolls at 1:30 are sooooo annoying and they occur often. Cant believe I spent $60 on this

  • lokisfather

    Posted Jun 26, 2009 12:52 pm PT

    OK, this is a horrible review. If you watch the gameplay he is blinking red the almost the entire time. That means those pieces of armor are completely broken! Of course you are going to die a lot!
    Why is he using ranged weapons on a goblin right next to him? Seriously though. This game (especially now when you can get it for $10 or $20) is very good--once you level up. After you get some good gear you will tear up the levels easy. Co-op is a blast too.

    and to think i was going to buy this game

    10 years in development and it fails. One very disapointing game

  • Sin-Thesis

    Posted Apr 16, 2009 5:07 pm PT

    this review is dead on, in fact i probably would have given it a lesser score, everything from the death animation, to even the basic combat, i mean cmon, using the stick just feels so dull compared to button combos

  • Izzae7

    Posted Mar 29, 2009 5:19 pm PT

    currently playing this game...has potential but it fails...camera annouying...fight controls suck...you get mobbed during the last couple of stages and ofter die...very often

    It should have been marketed as the dungeon crawler. Diablo on a console, if you will.

    I haven't even gotten to level 50 with my characters. It has very unique depth and is still a blast to play in short bursts.

    That Valkyrie thing is funny, not cool.

  • Amnesiac23

    Posted Feb 28, 2009 6:32 pm PT

    The mythology in this game is great, and more games should add that but the game play was just awful. Something I just wasn't going to get used to no matter how long I played.

  • Temtamperu

    Posted Feb 20, 2009 6:24 pm PT

    I picked this up for 12:99 euro today. its no so bad. but i suppose thats due to the price.

  • burps_brasil20

    Posted Jan 18, 2009 8:57 am PT

    it's not that bad,and yet,not that good either...the game is actually quite good once you get the hang of it...but the dieing cut-scene ruins most of the fun...

    I geus it was TOO FRUSTRATING

  • hackxel

    Posted Jan 2, 2009 9:39 pm PT

    I played this game and i think that its really fun he underrated it. I think that it worth at least a 8.5/10.

  • LGjunior

    Posted Jan 2, 2009 2:08 pm PT

    I haven´t completed this game yet. So far it´s a good game i like the combat and loot drops. sure its some problems with the camera and they could have added a auction house .

  • MutilatedBunny

    Posted Dec 29, 2008 8:32 am PT

    focusing on the bad is all there is. This game was terrible. The attack system is garbage, and you basically can't do anything about damage taken other than hope to roll, but in the later levels you'll get shot at constantly and just slowly die. I hated this game. deserved a much lower rating.

  • zeldarules2003

    Posted Dec 19, 2008 10:02 pm PT

    I haven't even played this game yet, but this review was terrible. The IGN review of this same game was MUCH better and addressed both good AND bad things about this game, while this review seemed focused only on the bad things...

  • dcviana

    Posted Nov 16, 2008 3:09 pm PT

    Just finished the game for the first time. I'm kind of happy that most comments here mention how GameSpot was too has on this game, it's not that bad at all. Sure most of the things they said about camera and controls are right, but I think it should've got 6.5, maybe 7.
    And the death animation was not that bad, its better than restarting the level and at the same time stimulates you to get better and don't die too often.

  • tearoy

    Posted Nov 13, 2008 12:24 pm PT

    You know this is one of the games I actually just pop in every once in awhile, even though when it came out I played too much, 3 lv 50s, but even though I play it, it's missing so much stuff that it needs to have in it. I don't care about having a DLC, I want patches, 4-player, a bank and a Auction house, that would help this game out more then people believe.

  • lordxephon

    Posted Oct 22, 2008 8:48 pm PT

    wow he didnt even say everything about the game ign does 10 times better than gamespot sometimes....

  • Whitewind617

    Posted Oct 22, 2008 8:29 pm PT

    The score's a little low I think (maybe a six would have been more appropriate) but the overall review is pretty indicative of most reviewers think about it. Probably would have been a great game had it been on the xbox 5 years ago.

  • _Crazylegz

    Posted Oct 19, 2008 3:44 am PT

    First of all, the only thing wrong about this review is the fact the playing it don´t know how too play the game. If your charcter is L32 YOU SHOULD KNOW ARMOR BREAK AND NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED.
    this is a skill based game and one the best action RPG´s on the 360.
    DO NOT RELY ON THIS REVIEW, PLAY THE GAME A COUPLE OF HOURS INSTEAD.

  • Jooj

    Posted Oct 7, 2008 6:10 pm PT

    I wonder if this review has anything to do with the fact that SK the developers of the game sued the highly popular Epic (producers of the unreal engine, GOW etc) over 'sabotage'? ;-)

  • maninatrunk

    Posted Oct 5, 2008 9:50 am PT

    Man I played the demo and it seems like a really solid game to me, Gamespot reviews are too darn picky man, I mean he complained about a sound while you jump?!?!?! I mean come ON! I mean he said that everything in the game that REALLY MATTERS (I.E. Combat,the RPG elements and abilities.) are extremely solid, so how can the game only be a 5!

  • zogo1

    Posted Sep 20, 2008 5:04 am PT

    Gamespot are too harsh, i lovethis game!

  • nemesi609

    Posted Sep 14, 2008 9:11 pm PT

    wow they butchered this game, and the faults they point out are faults, but they emphasize the problems way to much over the fun aspects, and the world is definitly not as big as they make it out to. i dont know how much i can trust gamespot reviews anymore

  • BadBilbit

    Posted Sep 12, 2008 8:07 pm PT

    i agree with SolidBlackVoid, gamespot and all other gaming websites for that matter, they make reviews on the professional opinion so if you want the game get it because if you realy want it you will love and you will not give a rats ass about the reviews.

  • SolidBlackVoid

    Posted Sep 12, 2008 9:44 am PT

    i didnt buy this game but if u like this kind of game you shouldnt listen 2 gamespot

  • solidfuelwarren

    Posted Sep 12, 2008 5:15 am PT

    saying "loki's army of machines" is a big spoiler. this isn't revealed until well into the game. wtf.

    I thought Too Human was incredible. This reviewer doesn't appear to be aware of what the game was offering. It's a dungeon crawler with action and RPG elements. but it's a dungeon crawler. that's why you are forced to walk around and take in the epic environment designs and NPC dialogues.

    the designers have explained that the valkyrie animation length was chosen for multiplayer tension, and instead of making you replay the entire level in single player. it's not a thoughtless choice.

    you swoosh and clank while jumping, because your a larger than life god covered in heavy cybernetic armor. wtf.

    the reviewer just refuses to appreciate the game he got. shame on him.

  • Cpl_Kane

    Posted Sep 11, 2008 7:24 pm PT

    Man, that's a shame. At least Fable 2 is promising. I don't see any way that can get messed up so badly at this point.

    Watched a demo, on Bravo: Playr (SKY UK 208 or 197). I think it looks challenging, but not impossible; with a graphics score of 3.5 out of 5. Still wondering whether to purchase it or not.

  • Jshaw71

    Posted Sep 6, 2008 10:34 am PT

    hmm, sometimes i wonder how correct these reveiws are, i say rent it before you buy it, it seems to be a good course of action these days, when you can't return games that you've opened, :: sighs ::

    Wow...I am disappointed. I was really looking forward to "Too Human". it really does look lame.

    I like this game.

  • ukogmickey

    Posted Sep 3, 2008 6:30 am PT

    LMAO !!! I actually 100% agree with Gamespot on this review, Mind I still think theyve strethed a 5.5 out of this game. I only played the demo and even that was enough to put me off completely, Your thinking dont let the demo put you off, In this case it was the camera system that put me off and is obviosly how it is in full game, I was horrifyed and just couldnt get to like or get used to that camera. It was awful. I really feel good now that its not just me this time and gamespot have dont a great honest job in this review. Well done !!! Bring on fallout 3, Cant wait for that game !!!

    At first I thought this review was BS... until I played & finished TH. Now I am regretfully getting a full refund. Its just to buggy & broken & more frustration than fun. Fingers crossed for TH2.

  • NuclearDefCon1

    Posted Sep 2, 2008 4:42 am PT

    Almost completed single player, its a good game with good custimisation, i dont agree with 5.5 rating.

    Multiplayer is very fast paced and good fun.

    once you get used to the controls its a fairly good system. personally i give it 7.5.

  • Mas_War_Ex

    Posted Sep 1, 2008 7:48 pm PT

    I played the demo, and I personally didn't like the analog stick, being used for your melee attacks. It just didn't feel right.

    I would have preferred the physical attacks, to be mapped to the face-buttons. At least, 'Silicon Knights' should have given players the option of changing their control configuration, to their personal liking.

  • thatguy2001

    Posted Sep 1, 2008 6:29 pm PT

    This is actually one of the better games I have played on the 360 for a while. It's just a great hack 'n' slash game. I don't know what's up with the bad review.
    It's just fun to play which is what gaming is all about.
