Just when we all thought that the lumbering storm cloud that washed
Too Human's existence with unrestrained negativity (or "mixed" positivity, depending on how you look at it), we remembered something: Zero Punctuation. As a man who loves to hate, we imagine there was no way Yahtzee would pass up a game like
Too Human. It is, in his opinion, universally bad and apparently has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. To anyone who enjoys the game (frankly, we've been a bit addicted), you have been warned. Everyone else, find the review after the break.

I have a library card at the Hall, I have it out until Wednesday, when, y'know, the next ZP comes out.

I always keep up to date with Yahtzee's reviews. They are endlessly entertaining. This is the first time I've actually disagreed with him. While ALL of his points are valid and hold truth I still rather enjoyed myself quite abit (minus the last level). In any case it an entertaining review and good for some laughs so I encourage everybody to watch it even if in the end you'll disagree with him.

I only played the demo, but I agreed with everything he said. I will rent it and give it a play through because I thought the story had some potential. After playing the demo twice, I got the hang of combat and started having fun kicking robot (?) ass, but I totally can see where he was coming from.
Regardless, the review was HIGH-LARRY-US, was it not?

Glad to see the Xbox 360 Fanboy folks are on top of things as usual. Here's a tip for future reference: Yahtzee updates every Wednesday. Maybe go look then.

I loved the game, a review is just one person's opinion, and that's fine. That doesn't make me wrong and him right or vice-versa. As far as the "blah called and they want their..." comment...that comment is from the 70's and NO ONE want's the 70's back. Mr Nosuch, I'm gald to see that you are trying to help us poor little 360 fanboy's...but being as we actually have games to play...we aren't as intent on keeping up with reviews as you may be.

Heh, this game is total garbage and Yahtzee didn't even bothering to mention how long the game was in development for.
It's gonna end up like shenmue, planned sequals but ideas cut due to lack of sales and interest.

Except Shenmue was full of boring with moments of genius... whereas Too Human is full of fail with moments of epic fail.

Well, I liked Shenmue (the first one, the second was, well, dirt)

AoE said...
Oh, I like both Shenmue games, but that doesn't change the fact that the bulk of both titles was filled with boring day-to-day activities. ;)

I liked Shenmue too but yea it got boring actually having to hold a job in the game, but it taught me how to operate a fork lift heh.

Very rarely have I disagreed with any ZP review, sometimes he's overly harsh but he usually sums up the core experience quite well. This is no exception either. Everything that he complains about, I've taken issue with in Too Human, he just does so in a way that has you laughing your ass off the whole time as well.
