Yes. As long as they complete their vision, I really can't complain. I just hope it plays well in the end.duk said:

Yeah, 2008 needs a kick in the dick because PS3 is taking over that year, for serious.
my logic? haha, sure... who would want to be matched up between Mistwalker RPGs, Halo 3, Assassins Creed, Grand Theft Auto IV, Madden, and maybe even considering Bioshock.
PS3 is taking over in 2008? I think that's invalid
... Wii for total domination... Nintendo buys out Sony.

Well, can't say this didn't surprise me. I'm not holding my breath for 2008 either.

um yeah there will be big titles coming out every year... but Halo 3 and Grand Theft Auto IV are the grand-daddies of them all. Outside of Madden and Gears, not too many other titles on the 360 will rival their success this year.
Next year it is a little more open for Too Human to be at least a flavor of the month like Lost Planet was for January, Dead Rising for June, Saint's Row in September, and Crackdown in February and so.
It's just like movie production companies delaying their pictures to move away from blockbusters in case their movie doesn't go over with the masses. Look at what happened with Ghost Rider. Delayed a year or so and now it is considered a success in the box office after avoiding the summer heat last year...
Too Human will perform better in 2008 when they MS doesn't have to worry about over-saturation of quality games.

i think moving it to 2008 may be a good thing, but hot damn this game better be at least as good as Twilight Princess or God of War 2 or something.
i mean i know a lot about the 2007 calender, but there aren't so many games for 2008 and beyond on the 360 that i know about that interest me other than the rest of the Mass Effect trilogy and Alan Wake.

So TH may miss 2007 because Shane Kim likes the 2007 line-up? Seriously, you guys are reading too much into this statement. I read it as, "hey, our 2007 line-up is pretty strong. TH will come, but we're not rushing it because we have solid titles coming out every month." Some of you read it as , "Daikatanaem Foreverz LAWL."

they're showing it in a few weeks to IGN as an exclusive. I'm sure it'll come out by September at the latest.
This was a pretty ridiculous statement by Doug -- the way he phrased it in his initial article really didn't make much sense. I tried to indicate that in my original news post over at TooHuman.net. I think Doug realized that because he clarified the statement a few minutes later in the IGN forums... I've got a link to that in our discussion thread at the site.
Too Human will make 2007 -- otherwise Dyack and crew wouldn't be showing things as soon as they are. It would contradict everything they've talked about recently.

Too Human might miss this generation :lol
More like Daikatana. This one might get worse before it gets better. But it'll be cool if it turns out great. Maybe it's time I gave Eternal Darkness another shot. I haven't made it more than an hour into it before getting distracted by something else. PEACE.BobFromPikeCreek said:

I don't think this possible delay matters to most casuals gamers as long as Halo 3 comes out in 2007.

Personally, I think most of Microsoft's big hitters will be delayed a few months just going by the genre and/or track record of the dev.
I don't mind but I'm afraid the Fall release schedule may end up being crowded.

Creative "geniuses" like Dyack will run the industry dry. Taking years and years perfecting some overblown work of "art" is vain and pointless. If you want to tell a story, go write a ****ing book. Remember when a fun video game could be developed in three months by a team of two or three guys? Now games have to be some kind of sensually-engrossing multimedia experience. Make something fun to PLAY and release it. Let us use our imagination to fill in the blanks. I almost think Dyack relishes this kind of unwarranted attention and delays his games on purpose.
Can you imagine a company taking this long to develop a game in the 80's, or even the 90's? Too Human was freaking in development for *PS1* for christsakes!

God of War was actually good though. Not waying TH won't be (though i dont' have a lot of faith), but lets wait and see. GoW sold a lot based on word of mouth and hype because of how awesome it was.

In before the Chinese Democracy joke.
Dammit Axl, I expect this on my iPod, no leaked versions, by the end of 2007, or else you should kiss and make up with Slash and Duff.
