Too Human for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

yeah, i used a "hot rod" reference for a game review, what?

so "too human" IS a good game...but...

Fact: you cant tell someone that it is a FACT that a game is good in a review, u r only expressing an opinion.

so i write this review as my opinion, not some persuasive essay on how much you should love this game.

the PROS.

1: GREAT story. anyone who loves old mythology and science fiction (lets face it, if u like one, u prolly like the other) will love this. i found it incredibly interesting how the developers were able to almost seemlessly fuse scifi and nordic myth into one, complex story.
2: the visuals are really nice. the graphics themeselves are nothing breathtaking, but the depth and detail in the enviorments all come together with the mytho-sci-fictional feel/story.
3: solid gameplay. i quote another reviewer when i say it IS a jak of all trades, master of none. that is to say that this game covers all the elements of an action RPG, but doesnt exactly perfect them.
4: weapons. upgradeable, powerfull, big, fun. nuf said.

the SPLIT: omg, we havent seen one of these for a while, but i actually cant decide if i like the fighting mechanism or not. i DO like the ATTEMPT to do something new (the melee is all controlled with the right stick), but i dont like how it FEELS half the time. decide for yourself.

the CONS: just small details here and there. i think if they could do a sequel, given more time they could make the game REALLY inovative. the graphics, again, aren't PHENOMINAL, and i think i would have liked to seen some multiplayer elements thrown in, but otherwise...

this is an incredibly enjoyable game. the one thing i can say is that if you play games for the story and the world you get thrown into (coughcough-devilmaycryfa- ns- coughcough) and bizaare and intense action, you SHOULD like this game.

a definite rent. 8/10
