A 7/10 is pretty much a very good score to have for a game. The only way he'll lose is if we see 1 through 3s across the board I think.

In these days it is more likely for a game to get a 10 than a 9. A 7 is just horrible. Thats the reason why numbers are worthless to begin with and why they should be ignored. But GAF loves number threads, so yeah.......

Interestingly enough... it appears the demo caused more cancellations than new pre-orders.

how do you check for that?

Nah. If this report is true (and I think it's bogus) there were something like 550K cancellations versus 720K new preorders. Make sure you count the week after E3.

where do you people get these reports from? (other than the 1 million preorders link)
or do you just forget writing "i think" at the start of each post :/

They quote the report in the article.

But again, I think it's bogus.

I was using this on its own as it related to the demo specifically:

After the release of the game’s demo a reported 370,000 additional games were preordered, in addition to 495,000 cancellations.

No... but it's more interesting than the usual Too Human discussions. :D

lol wut? just because gta4 and mgs4 came out this year doesnt make that true at all.

and if you guys dont go by numbers then you'll never have to eat any crow ;_;
 
Damn, some of you guys ACTUALLY THINK 550k people CANCELED their preorders after the demo?

That means 550k people would to have had preorders for the game when the demo came out, and that alone is a stretch.

I doubt any demo in the world, for any game, no matter how horrible it is, could cause that many people to cancel SOMETHING THEY'RE OBVIOUSLY ALREADY HYPED FOR.

Well Dyack compared scores to IQ numbers and called them pointless or something similar...so....blame Dyack! :p

It was also an exaggerated statement.

"Too Human manages to combine the best elements of action and RPG. The result is not only interesting, but of high quality and very fun as well."


"Plus:
Very well written story,impressive graphics, explosive action,deep character development."

"Minus: Static Camera
few AI issues."


General: Too Human puts new standards for the action console games, and wins a seat among the best games of X360.


Is this a reputable magazine? If so I might have to pick this up..
