I'm thinking about buying it, is it good, bad, average, etc?

Wrong place for this, my friend.

Wrong Section.

Shameless Plug for own Too Human Review: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.69610

OMG it rocks! too Human, more like too awesome!

Sorry

Indigo_Dingo:
Opinion is mixed, but a fair number have said that its worse than Haze.

Now now Metacritic has a different tune.

Let's not go that far...

I thought it was a tad below average, after playing it for an hour at a friends. Combat just isn't satisfying.

It's not THAT bad. I think it's in a rather similar situation to Fable. If you compare it to all the hype, yeah, it's shit. If you don't set your expectations too high, and if you like games like Diablo, it's actually pretty fun.

I'll just save for Mercenaries then.

Indigo_Dingo:
And as you can see, Gamer.nl, Gamespot and Gamedaily all said it was worse than Haze.

Yes and IGN gave Too Human a 78 and Haze a 45. And Xplay gave Too Human a 80 and Haze a 40. Even 1up that gave Too human a 42 gave Haze a 33.

And the average is higher for Too Human

Worse than Haze? Naw... Haze was the worst shooter I've ever had the misfortune to play. At least I had fun with Too Human. For a little bit. Sort of...

Indigo_Dingo:
I didn't say it was, just that in some reviewers opinions it was worse than Haze. And, if it were as brilliant as people keep claiming, there would have been no cases where that could have been possible.

You mean like Metal Gear Solid 4 and Halo 3.

How could the god game MGS4 be beat by anything in anything. The end is nye!

Bull. No matter how brilliant a game is there will be some discreprency in it's level of awesomeness.

Indigo_Dingo:
I realise that. However, I was just pointing out that some feel it had serious problems, and was more flawed than even Haze.

And most thought otherwise.

yes, very good. Thats what I was saying.

So your point is? Some reviews think Haze is better than Too Human most do not? I don't get it.

I thought GTA 3 was utter garbage

stop the presses.

IGN have a habit of giving games excessively large scores. GTA4 is perfect? Hmm......

This is a point actually, since when have you seen a game get less than 60%? It nearly never happens. If a game is dreadful (as most agree haze is) it should be 1-3 surely?

There's also a free demo of the game on Xbox live. Download it, try it, if you like it, buy it. If not, save for Mercs 2. It's gonna be AWESOME!!!

Wait, how the fuck did Haze get dragged into this?!? I know there wasn't much to the thread to begin with, but can we not at least make sure that the not much in question is focused on Too Human?

I sence a tad of sarcasm.

Either that, or there's Trollery brewing.

I was holding Haze up as an example to prove my point, and people assumed the worst about my intentions. They do that a lot, and no matter how many times they're wrong, people refuse to give me the benefit of the doubt.

You brought Haze into the thread out of nowere, it's not a similar type of game, it's not had a similar critical reception, you just seemed to be unable to contribute to the thread without mentioning a PS3 title. And you wonder why people think you're a fanboy?

I can't gather what he's a fanboy of though.

a fanboy of PS3 because Haze was alledgedly slightly less horrible then Too Human?

that doesn't make much sense
