Too Human previews

I was on the fence about this game for quite some time and in fact the first time I heard about it they were suing the unreal engine makers because they were spending too much time helping cliffy b on gears of war. But after getting over the negative associated buzz around this game it started looking more and more interesting, playing as a cybernetically enhanced norse god in diablo style dungeon crawling. After playing the demo it has swayed me from “meh” to “pre order immediately!” The fixed camera almost psychically follows your intended movement, if it gets a bit lost you can hit recenter or zoom out to another camera style, this seems to be peoples main complaint, where were all these complaints with Skate's thumbstick tricks and fixed camera? Oh right that was “innovative”. If you want to wait a couple years for diablo 3 on pc to come out for the perfect experience (although people are already deriding its colorful happy graphics.) then best you wait. But if you want embark on a mash up of what seems like Mass effect meets God of war then this one is well worth it.

Microsoft finally confirmed this games release date at the 28th August for Europe. One of the reasons I love MS is it also loves NZ, and doesn't make us wait months for certain games… I'm looking at you, Brawl…

Based on the demo, I wouldn't buy this game. However, the levelling system is similar to that of World of Warcraft where you get talents that make your character a more powerful one. The control scheme is simple and easy to use, the game is definately a solid RPG, the graphics are pretty nice and some of the special attacks are awesome visually. I am definately going to rent the full version of the game as it is promising. Just to be sure, download the demo before you make the purchase.
