Too Human Meets Mediocre Reviews

Earlier this week, the long anticipated action-adventure game, Too Human, was finally released for the Xbox 360. After being in various stages of development for about a decade, the game made its US debut to overall lackluster marks. Gamespot weighed in with a 5.5/10, while IGN gave it a slightly more favorable 7.8. Developer Denis Dyack from Silicon Knights defended the game, saying players didn't yet "get it," and that it was "so innovative that we have put some people off." The game's reception in Japan has been similar.

Re:Don't get it.

What? You're simply demonstrating a lack of experience.

No. I have said that I've played various games. I have, in fact, played a lot of games people think are good, and while some of them are good, some of them are not. The point is, I already said I played Half-Life, and your saying that I don't have experience is no more than a ridiculous accusation of falsity on your part.

Your definition was obviously invented on the spot to counter the fact that in terms of story Halo pales in comparison to several other FPS games.

Oh yes, of course it was. Because it isn't remotely imaginable that I'm being honest, and that I have better things to do than lie about what I think on the intarweb (not to mention the fact that if it comes down to it, being here at all is a waste of time, but meh). Oops! Forgot my sarcasm tags. Let me say this clearly so that you can understand it:

You're a bloody fucking idiot. You are perfectly entitled to your opinions about games, no matter how I disagree, but you aren't willing to concede that maybe someone else thinks differently. Because my idea is so out of alignment with yours, you claim that I don't have any experience (and implying that I'm a liar, because I clearly have claimed otherwise), you claim that when I say something, I just made it up on the spot. You utilize the lowest form of response that humans have ever come up with to a differing opinion, short of violence: sticking your fingers in your ears, pretending it can't exist, and jumping up and down claiming that the person with the opinion must just be making it up (presumably to get on people's nerves? Who knows, it's your delusion).

Most people, once they get past the age of, say, 18 or 19, understand that no matter how ridiculous someone else's opinion seems, there's a good chance they hold it honestly, and that the two of them can set aside their differences, or at least try to change each other's mind. It's rather a sad commentary on you that you can't do that. Grow up. Trust me, when you learn to accept that other people think things you find unbelievable and stupid, you'll hardly be able to believe that you were once this intolerant.
