Too Human gets an August 29th European release date on Xbox 360 - August 19th in the US...
Our Microsoft Spring Showcase correspondent from San Francisco (the Welshman), has spoken about Too Human with Silicon Knights' President, Denis Dyack, who revealed a European release date of August 29th for the title (August 19th in the States).
Other points worthy of note for this Xbox 360 exclusive are that Silicon Knights has decided to drop 4 player co-op in the game, focusing on 2 player slots for co-operative play instead. It seems the action was a bit too fast paced for a rowdy quadruplet of players.
Dyack also spoke of the themes for the series' planned trilogy. It seems the first game will focus on discovery, the second on revenge, and the third on enlightenment. Gamers will be able to transfer their skill points between each sequel, so a level 30 character can be carried over from TH1 to TH2 seamlessly.
"The story of Too Human is the best we've ever done," commented Dyack, adding that the studio chose to base the series on Norse mythology because "Greek mythology is so boring..." A slight dig at SCEA Santa Monica perhaps?
The first Too Human game is slated as an Xbox 360 exclusive and as for the next two instalments Dyack said that keeping the game on Microsoft's console was "still the goal".
The litigation between Epic and Silicon Knights surrounding Unreal Engine 3 will certainly be a hindrance for the studio and while Dyack couldn't comment on the issue, he did nevertheless confirm that the legal battle was ongoing.
A demo for Too Human will heat up Xbox Live sometime in August prior to the game's release.

heres a tip for people who cant stop dying, become a defender. defenders are very powerful and can be a force to reckon with. they never get knocked down and are very fun to use. champions are very versital but they are frustrating and u will die alot with then ur first go round but they are an awesome class to work with. berserkers are very powerful and dish massive amounts of damage but u wil die alot with them to sadly. bioengineers are a very good class but lack in power so u have to be stratagetic with themm they are a very safe class because they regenerate health. i havnt used commado yet so i wouldnt know what to tell u about them except theat they specialize in firearms and u can use them from safe distances.

I thought this game was really good :) yeah some parts are lacking a bit but I think they changed norse mythology into sci-fi very well, oh and post 12 it hasn't been in development for the 360 for 10 years, 3 at the most for the 360, they kept having to switch consoles and start over, and then they had to make the graphics engine all over again because epic took away the unreal 3 engine.
so yeah the levels are basically just the same thing in a different skin, but I never really notice because i'd much rather look at my shiny armour ^^ overall a good start to the trilogy and an addictive game on its own :D depends what you're into though...*end block o' text*

I can say it was a let down. Im quite sure I did in m last comment. I thought diablo was a good game but this just wasnt up to scratch considering it was in the making for 10 years lol

you cant say the demo was a let down nore is the game, rent it from your local video store and try out the full game you wont be dissapointed unless your not a fan of diablo you wont understand theres more to it than just killing every thing in sight

Downloaded and played the demo and I was really let down. This game really doesnt special in anyway at all. Looks like the game had been in the making for 10 days not 10 years. Might be wrong about the full version but going off the demo id rather eat some stinging nettles for dinner than spend my hard earned money on this.
