Too Human developers issue a courtroom battle to the creators of Gears of War...

The long and troubled development of Silicon Knights' Too Human took a further twist today, with confirmation from GameDaily.biz that the Canadian developer has filed a lawsuit against Epic Games.

After several formats changes and well-documented issues with the game, Silicon Knights eventually settled on Epic's Unreal Engine 3 technology to bring the game to the Xbox 360.

Making its debut in Epic's Gears of War, the middleware platform has attracted widescale support and powers numerous titles currently in development; however, it seems Silicon Knights thinks slightly differently, with a scathing attack on its capabilities and inadequacies.

Speaking to GameDaily.biz, Silicon Knights president Dennis Dyack stated: "We stand behind everything in our complaint and believe it is highly unfortunate that Epic forced us into this situation. We would rather spend our time focusing on making great games, but as stated in our complaint, Epic simply refuses to acknowledge the inadequacies of the Unreal Engine 3 code it provides to its licensees," he said, "and refuses to accept the fact that its code has caused serious damage not only to Silicon Knights, but a number of other developers in the industry. We look forward to successful resolution of our claims in this court proceeding."

Responding earlier to the lawsuit, Epic Games' Mark Reign defended Unreal Engine 3, claiming that Silicon Knights complaints were unfounded and promised to defend the accusations in the courthouse.

We'd assume Unreal won't be behind Too Human Parts II & III then.

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*

Just bought this game and its so repetative. Online is the same as being offline apart from you get to speak to someone. £35 down the drain

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.
