It's RPG/Hack&Slash , a.k.a Diablo/Titan Quest/Loki , according to PJ . Never checked on this game lately , but for once I thought it's more of DMC-ish . Don't know why the RPG elements kicked in now .

If it comes in 2008

wooooot~

1st KuF:COD, then this...... diablo era will rise once again

well y not DMC then... haha... or N3... slash slash slash...

However, with a quintet of character classes, a deep skill tree and a World of Warcraft-style loot system-you'll pick up equipment with names like Sacred Tactical Visor of Opportunity and Harrowing Lance of Wrath, some socketable with runes a la Diablo II-there should be plenty of replay value in Too Human, at least for those who don't quibble as much as we do. Add to that a four-player co-op option (that we sadly didn't get to try out) and a crafting system, and we suspect that the game will resonate for a long time with gamers.

Others, however, may find that other games have done what Too Human is attempting to do before (and better) and may just want to wait for the novelization. Or at least until the trilogy is finally complete to enjoy the ride in one epic slog.

His hammer. How big?

Ken McCulloch: Oh, it's big - but size isn't everything. Thor's hammer, "Mjolnir", satisfies through the application of highly explosive, armor-penetrating shaped charge warheads, so that Thor's might can be felt exactly where it is needed.

Now, those who have enjoyed their time in the world of Too Human up through the story's conclusion will have plenty to do if they want to keep building Baldur. By the time you finish the campaign, Baldur will likely only be at level 25 of what I believe is a maximum of 50. He'll have some decent armor and weapons, but there will be lots more out there. You can begin a new campaign with the same character you finished it with, and the enemies will scale up accordingly so the challenge can continue. You can even jump into alternate versions of each level with more and different enemies and drops.

You could also, of course, pick a different character class for even more replay value. And there's the two-player online cooperative mode, which I haven't tried because there is only one of me.

But for that sort of player who enjoys playing through a game once to see the story and get the experience, Too Human will end long before its time and with not nearly enough payoff for all the story exposition. And it's an uneven ten hours, at best: Sometimes I had a great time mowing down enemies and racking up combos, but sometimes it just felt frustrating and/or repetitive.

Too Human will be available August 29. I expect that it will garner a very wide range of review scores.

Yeap, I played the demo a couple of times. Can't say I loved it, but I definitely like it more than GTA IV (I know I'm weird). Controls were odd but were responsive, graphics ok la considering there are no load times if you don't skip cutscenes, and also,
the whole Cybernatic-Norse thing is very intriguing to me.
I'll just give it a try, paling teruk pun rugi 160 ringgit  .

Are you serious bout the free MS points? That's really generous of them. Does it apply for Asian releases as well?

Cutscenes remind me of DMC series. Cheesy dialogue. Which automatically makes Baldur a bad-ass for geeks. Lol.

Hack, slash, loot. Sounds brainless to me. Sounds like my kinda game

Third person or first person? And Fable 2 is rumoured to be delayed sampai tahun depan.

delayed again?? nooooooooo!!

VP need to refer to FAQ one ... as long as you plan accordingly i.e. make sure you don't mix "conflicting" pinatas then sure OK one
