 | Comment #1 by Darklord Saige Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 07:29:12 PM Wow, didnt even know the demo was out. Guess I need to check the demo section out more. |
 | Comment #2 by coldman1 Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 07:30:08 PM ooo Very Nice |
 | Comment #3 by Immense Pirate Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 07:32:28 PM wot do you mean by gold???? |
 | Comment #4 by IndeedFailure Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 07:33:12 PM I have to say that i loove alot of games... but Too Human was one of the worst game ive ever played, i thought the game was going to get awsome after all this time waiting, but no, i was cried, biggest disapointment ever, thats the truth.. |
 | Comment #5 by Bondfan626 Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 07:33:30 PM gold means it has gotten a release date. |
 | Comment #6 by GrimReaper21093 Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 07:36:18 PM this game was horrible thedemo sucked and so will the game the controls are crap too. |
 | Comment #7 by cortex21 Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 07:37:17 PM if the controls were better and the gameplay(obviously) it would of been a bit hit game but no they decide to be unique and use the stick to attack but fail miserably. |
| Comment #8 by tedwick2 Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 07:37:18 PM i downloaded the demo myself and i have to say i was pretty disappointed it was too much like mass effect |
 | Comment #9 by Just a Mirage Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 07:38:34 PM I have been waiting since the 360 came for this game. I played the demo the day it came out. I didn't like the thumbstick control for the weapons and movement. If they would re-do the controls for the game, it wouldn't be that bad. But at the current control version, that made me unreserve and move my money to Fable 2 and Gears 2. |
 | Comment #10 by Chaosflare Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 07:40:27 PM Wasn't too fun in my opinion, and the camera control sucked, but I guess it's another case of "to each his own", no? I know my friend is running to get it, so I'll bum it off of him eventually. |
 | Comment #11 by Darth Odan Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 07:45:40 PM Gold means that they've begun manufacturing the game. In other words, they finished making it, and are now shipping the game to retailers. |
 | Comment #12 by blurbia Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 07:48:58 PM Yeah the demo was pretty weak... I didn't mind the stick = melee but the melee attacks were too slow & dull. I'm used to bad cameras (ninja gaiden 2), but that's not an excuse. It was a lot like mass effect, except mass effect>>too human |
 | Comment #13 by Atomic Peenut Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 07:54:23 PM if they sort out the camera controls il get it but i guess its too late for them too now ? so sod it =] i will keep my money for tiger woods haha hardcorre |
| Comment #14 by rosales21 Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 08:00:22 PM gold huh? never really played much attention to this game but from the looks of it it really doesnt catch my attention at all |
 | Comment #15 by EvilWays Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 08:03:56 PM Got lost in the demo (lost as in couldn't find my way around), controls were meh, and the camera kinda sucked. Retailers themselves won't have it themselves till a few days before launch (at best if it's a direct ship from the distributors (big name games only), sometimes not until the night before or morning of (other games that come thru the game rep)...work at a WalMart FYI). Gold just means that the game is "finalized" and is being massed pressed and packaged at the disc plant. Master copies of the games used to be put on gold colored discs to differentiate from alpha/beta/preview/review/etc. code stored on disc (maybe they still do, not really sure). |
 | Comment #16 by Revs 79 Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 08:07:53 PM The controls in demo were terrible especially as you have to centre the camera all the time |
 | Comment #17 by rockhopper Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 08:08:49 PM I didn't know whether to buy this game or not. After trying the demo, it turns out that I will NOT buy the game. Controls were horrible. Can't really control the camera because the right stick is your attack. Horrible in my opinion. I think it's going to be huge disappointment from the critics. |
 | Comment #18 by dudecrazy108 Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 08:09:21 PM The demo was just ok for me. |
 | Comment #19 by TWD_Zombie Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 08:18:45 PM It will flop. |
 | Comment #20 by Castrum Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 08:32:19 PM Wow, so much hate. The controls and camera take some getting-used-to, but they're far from horrible. If you like dungeon-crawlers like Diablo, you'll love this game. |
| Comment #21 by Castrum Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 08:37:00 PM And as for "flopping", it's already on many Best-Sellers lists (#2 on EB/Gamestop, even). There's no way in hell it will flop at this rate. At worst, it will do 500K sales. |
 | Comment #22 by stevedb79 Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 08:45:37 PM shame the demo sucks donkey balls as i was quite looking forward to this game...now im not |
 | Comment #23 by HouzeHeadz Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 09:01:06 PM Wow you guys are a bunch of haters so the controls aren't perfect who cares. You got to play a small part of a much bigger game. Some of you are so spoiled everything has to be soooooo perfect buncha whiners. Some of you seem to forget that games aren't just about controls its bigger picture is the story & character customization not to mention online co-op. |
 | Comment #24 by dtolley Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 09:08:41 PM I was looking forward to this game, but after seeing a few videos of it, was a little on the fence about how it would be. After playing the demo for it, I know I will NOT be getting this game. |
 | Comment #25 by Scott5657 Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 09:12:43 PM I thought Too Human would be amazing, but I tried the Demo and I was Hugely dissapointed. |
 | Comment #26 by clawsrawk Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 10:08:46 PM to all the haters 1) the camera can be fixed by pressing down on the d-pad all the way to iso, i never have to center the camera. 2) the controls arent bad they are just different, take some time to get use to...i didnt like them till my 3rd play through...just thought i would share my two-cents |
| Comment #27 by Fyrex Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 11:03:30 PM I like Action-RPGs like this and i will buy the Game! The Demo was cool and a lot of fun. |
 | Comment #28 by odysseus123 Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 11:18:16 PM The lot of you people are such whiners and babies. But whatever, Too Human will do good without the them. |
 | Comment #29 by Axe Argonian Friday, August 01, 2008 @ 11:56:15 PM I already knew this was coming out this month, but I'll say it anyway: It's about damn time!!!! |
 | Comment #30 by I LoMar I Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 12:11:34 AM I don't see how you guys hated the demo. If you watch the gamespot interview with Dennis Dyak during E3 then you will see why the controls are the way they are. The only reason people say they hate the controls is because it has never been done before. I have my copy comming a day early (I know manager at gamestop). |
 | Comment #31 by SewJmiter Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 12:34:27 AM too bad the controls are awful. despised this demo... |
 | Comment #32 by sirve Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 12:52:51 AM i hated the controls at first but then understood the way the game is meant to be played. you use the thumbstick to create combos.....i really started to like the game after a few trys and can see alot of fun lvling and playing co-0p and the amount of loot drops in this game is insane. most people that hated the game probably only played like 10 minutes and didnt bother to perfect the way the controls r meant to be used. and as for the camera i noticed if you pull out your guns you can get the camera to turn in the right direction you want. maybe people r just terrible at playing games these days and want everything easy. oh and as for the comparison to mass effect i dont see none at all gameplay wise. |
 | Comment #33 by squirreltakos Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 01:38:55 AM @30, now you can see a day earlier that it's not all it's cracked up to be. la de da, you know the manager at gamestop, can i have your autograph. |
 | Comment #34 by CrazyNinjaMunky Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 01:48:51 AM I for one have been looking forward to this game for quite some time. And while the controls are indeed different, it took me no time at all to get the hang of them and start tearing things up. The camera was no trouble for me either. It seems apparent to me that most of the people complaining about these aspects of the game want their hand held for them throughout the entire game as well as have the controls dumbed down to a typical X mashing hack and slash. And while that level of mind numbing gameplay may be ok for some. I however am quite pleased with Silicon Knights attempt at something different. And I for one am going to love this game as there are no other dungeon crawlers worth mentioning on the 360, that I can think of anyway. So if you don't like it fine, but saying it's a terri |
 | Comment #35 by TqureX Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 03:03:38 AM the demo was terrible... yes and controls do suck very much |
 | Comment #36 by Zoc Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 04:41:00 AM i'll get fable 2 instead |
 | Comment #37 by tobinca Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 06:40:09 AM I loved the demo, from the first minute till the last, the controls are not bad at all, different but good, getting this one from day one |
 | Comment #38 by Chizwick Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 06:53:26 AM I'm tsking off three days from work just to play this game. Demo was great, can't wait for the 20th. |
 | Comment #39 by Rutawitz Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 08:05:03 AM the demo wasnt so bad, it took a little bit of time to get used to so that means you have to play it more than 5mins before getting bored and going back to playing final fantasy xxcv the control scheme and point of view was different than most games that are out today and i appreciate a company trying to do something different in an industry based on ripping each other off and it certainly beats running around as girls claiming to be boys with bad haircuts and over sized swords |
 | Comment #40 by Yamster Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 08:43:31 AM The demo wasnt all that great but I'm pretty sure the game will be great. @tedwick2: Mass Effect was long and boring, sorry to say that mate :( |
 | Comment #41 by ravensfanyuya Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 10:00:46 AM this game sucks ass |
 | Comment #42 by knockton55 Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 10:10:53 AM Wooo cant wait! #40 - This game'll be likely as long as Mass Effect, sorry mate |
 | Comment #43 by workbench Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 11:07:11 AM @3+6 gold means its sold xxxxx amount of copies... it must be heavily pre ordered if its not out and its gold. a gold record i believe is 100,000 copies sold, platinum being 1,000,000. its possibly the same thing for games as audio. |
 | Comment #44 by Boygenius Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 11:52:41 AM The demo sucked bigtime. Diablo 3 FTW!! :D |
 | Comment #45 by Richmyster6907 Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 12:28:09 PM Ahhhh another pathetic title to the gold roster what a great day for democracy |
 | Comment #46 by ImAKing1987 Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 03:03:56 PM @ All previous post... Gold means that its sold 500,000 copies and platinum means 1,000,000 copies in CD's and DVD's so Im gonna go out on a limb here and say that it applys on games too. Its sad that no one know this. Its even been in a game (if you can consider Def Jam ICON a game...lol.) |
 | Comment #47 by eternal123 Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 03:07:28 PM i have been waiting sooo long for this game cant wait to pick it up |
 | Comment #48 by Jordaan121 Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 04:22:48 PM Haha, There's about 30 odd hater's already when the game aint been released ? It's a Demo ladies, it's not the full game. I didnt mind the game, im in to the Diablo looks and dungeons etc. To be fair, id give the game a chance before you start to have a moan about it. Peace. |
 | Comment #49 by mjc0961 Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 04:32:24 PM "gold means its sold xxxxx amount of copies" No, "going gold" means the game is now being produced to be put on store shelves. |
 | Comment #50 by Noob Assassin13 Saturday, August 02, 2008 @ 04:34:57 PM I don't get why everyone's complaining about the demo. I played it and other than the camera problems I had a lot a fun. I think this game deserves more cred than everyone else is giving it. |
 | Comment #51 by simonromano2007 Sunday, August 03, 2008 @ 01:18:17 AM after what im hearing id better wait for the review and not download the demo |
 | Comment #52 by eXtreme 1138 Sunday, August 03, 2008 @ 06:33:51 PM The demo reminded me of something like a bad version of Mass Effect. |
 | Comment #53 by STUKER Wednesday, August 27, 2008 @ 10:37:13 AM Still got to wait 2 days before it's released in the UK. Personally thought the demo was OK. |
