Who me?

I didn't expect this news, however, I am most definitely sure it will get delayed, but if it gets delayed, I have much more games to enjoy the entire 2008 as well as 2007.

Kinda good timing for Silicon Knights. With little to zero competition in Q1 they might repeat success of Lost Planet and Crackdown.

So I think this means the game will come out Q1 2009 then given the previous promises. Honeslty, I said a gizillion times, they should just shut up, work on the game and then release it when it's ready ... doing this is making me loose interest in the game more and more every day.

them predicting a release date isnt what has put me off the game, but the complete lack of progression and development has. with every new set of screens/footage it retains the same issues from the last set, bad textures, completely FLAT lighting, piss poor shooting mechanics and animation. this game needs to do a timeshift and do a complete 180 on itself so that it actually becomes good.

So much negatitivity, I reckon Q1 2008 to be achievable.

piss poor shooting mechanics
Hmm well its not a shooter, so who cares about that, if you want decent shooting machanics in an "RPG like" game go buy Mass Effect.

From what we have seen so far it looks like SK are quite far along in development, in terms of content and level design, most of their problems seem to be centered around frame rate and such, which could all be down to UE3, (or them not knowing how to use it correctly).

considering the game is very combat focused, whether it be sword or guns, its hard to ignore one of their major gameplay mechanics when it looks like crap.

I agree...I think the animation are quite good, but it can most definitely be better than this for sure, but it all depends on...how far has they come in terms of animation and combat last time they showed us. Like they haven't showed us a real combat video yet from the good old days with IGN's Too Human Weekend.

I think SK can devlier on the animation and combat as well, but it all depends person to person with their opinions of how it is. If you are VERY picky then god knows how it will be, but if you can live with decent good animation and go for the RPG and story then its good.

I for one can live with decent animation as long as they aint crap like some last gen games I have played.

Anyway, time will tell for sure.

im not picky, but when a game character looks like he's having a seizure and all he's doing is trying to shoot a gun i cant really come away from the game with a possitive outlook.

GC 2007: Too Human Update
Denis Dyack reveals a few new details.
by Erik Brudvig
August 21, 2007 - In a video interview conducted by IGN today, Denis Dyack, President of Silicon Knights, revealed several new interesting bits of information about the developer's upcoming title, Too Human. Fresh off the heels of last week's news that Too Human would be a 2008 release; Dyack narrowed the window down to early 2008 with a playable demo prior to release.

Dyack also talked about the delays that Too Human has seen and how they have affected the plan to have the full Too Human trilogy appear on Xbox 360. The short form of the answer is that we might not see all three installments before the next console cycle. If you're anxiously waiting for more details on the game itself, you won't be waiting long. Silicon Knights plans to show the game to members of the press as soon as October.

Check back with IGN soon for the full video interview with more details on these and other topics including Dyack's assertion that we're headed towards a one console world in the future.

Well from what i understand the combat section is supposed to be similar to God of War, except you have more choice in the type of weapons you can use.

It's one thing to look like crap, but have you actually played it ?, because somethings aren't always how they seem.

Personally i think it looks pretty good in terms of combat, I am expecting the final game to be much like a hack and slash RPG with a large selection of weapons, which in my opinion the 360 is seriously lacking at the moment.

I generally find when a combat engine becomes too complex the game loses its fun value, but then I generally play games for their story these days, and thats what interests me most about this game.

but bad animation is something that looks like crap whether you playing the game or are watching it. a jerky shooting/ fighting animation is a crap thing to look at, whether your the one holding the pad, or someone else is.

But animation can be fixed, and they are possibly using a new game enigine now and im guessing a lot of those problems will be fixed.

First terrible delays, next on the list is more delays and post-poned unveilings, third is a dissapointing unveiling, fourth is war with people on neogaf defending the atrocious unveiling, 5th is making confident rants about the terrible state of the game and writing story book blogs to keep your fans interested ( a stylish way to defend the games criticisms), then dyack thinks games shouldnt be previewed early in development (again defending the abuse his game had, because if it had a very good early preview, i doubt he would back up the idea of abolishing early previews), terrible looking screens (baldur looking like he is constipated), a new trailer that helped spoil the games image by highlighting the terrible animation, then war with epic (which is starting to look like more excuses for the games infinite delays)...wow the list is long and i used to be so excited about this game. But it seems the game cannot even define itself. Its trying to be a master of all genres and is ending up being an amateur in ALL of them. Good luck denis. i hope before you finally release this game, you can define what it is yourself.

It's a lot of technology speech from Mr Dyack, about how it is spreading and so on.

But he do speak of Too Human, and says an early Octoboer to show it off to "some" people, and the whole pre-release demo and such, but that's int he very end.
