2008-01-24 14:48:01 Possible Too Human release date - Feb 28th

For what it is worth CostCo is advertising a special on Too Human. The release date is Feb. 28th. While retailers are often wrong, it would be very odd for CostCo to have a special sale for Too Human. Here is the text and link.

EDIT - Link removed as it busted the page. Sorry guys

This video game is scheduled to be released on February 28, 2008. Place your

advance order now and it will be shipped to you as soon as it is available.



Step into the world of “Too Human,” the next-generation third-person epic action game from renowned Canadian developer Silicon Knights. As the cybernetic god Baldur, you are thrust into the midst of an ongoing battle that threatens the existence of mankind. An ancient machine presence has forced the god’s hand. In the first part of a trilogy, Baldur is charged with defending humanity from an onslaught of monstrous war machines bent on the eradication of human life.



In “Too Human,” players are treated to a nonstop barrage of action powered by the seamless integration of melee and ranged firearms combat and fueled by breathtaking visuals enabled by the powerful combination of Xbox 360 and the Unreal Engine 3. Battles unfold in awesome scale as players engage with vast numbers of enemies. Gamers take it to the next level by playing the entire single-player campaign in multiplayer co-op mode via Xbox Live® or system link.



“Too Human” is produced by Silicon Knights, which brings a wealth of knowledge, story-based design and gameplay expertise to the next generation of video gaming.

Until I hear from Silicon Knights, I dont believe who says what, especially with Too Human.

Dyack said a demo would be release before the game comes out as well, so I am stillh oping though because I am gonna get Too human non the less.

I'm with Sath on this one - until Silicon Knights comes out and justifies this, i'm not believing it.

Can't wait to play the demo. Looks like a really good game, but I just want to play the demo so that I know that I definitely want to buy this game.

Feb 28th seems a bit out of the blue if you ask me.

Looking forward to it either way, but I hope they don't release it in a half finished state.

I hope it'll be a cinematic game like Mass Effect, but without all its technical issues. Can't wait for the demo, too.

From what I've heard and seen Too Human seems to not have many technical issues at all.

They incorrectly state that the game engine is UE3.

The last coupleof videos looked rather smooth, but you never know until you play for yourself... Though MassEffect was an exception rather than a rule as most games are fairly polished, so I hope for the best.

The first Too Human will still have some of Epic's code. It'll completely be removed after the game is released, ie. future iterations of TH will not have a single line of code written by Epic guys. At least that's what was said in SK's lawsuit.

Really? I was under the impression that the first Too Human would ship with no Epic tech.

The suit says that the new engine, which it simply refers to as "The Silicon Knights Engine," is built on Unreal as per the original agreement, but improves considerably on the technology. Furthermore, after the release of Too Human, all Epic code in the engine will be removed.
