Too Human gets a release date and Co-op play

Silicon Knights announced yesterday that the often delayed Too Human will hit U.S store shelves August 19 and August 29 in Europe. Too Human was supposed to release Too Human for the PSone and then was released, then was supposed to release on the Game Cube in 2000 and that never panned out. In 2005 the game was announced once again for Xbox 360 and then faced some more delays when Silicon Knights went back and forth with Epic games creator of the Unreal Engine 3 with lawsuits and claims of sabotage. A claim Epic denies. Silicon Knights also announced that the game would also have a Co-op mode in its campaign via Xbox Live, no word if the game will have split screen Co-op.

"My 2 Cents"
Silicon Knights track record speaks for itself Eternal Darkness and MGS Twins snakes where two games they delayed to death and still both where great. I would rather see a delay and a good game rather then a rush and a crappy game. Lets just hope if Too Human is good it doesnt take another 9 years in between sequels. Also please show some love to split screen co-op, doesnt any one on Xbox Live have friends that come over their house?

Ninja Gaiden pre-order bonus from Amazon.com

Amazon.com announced today that customers who reserve Ninja Gaiden 2 will recieve a bonus $10 Amazon gift card. Ninja Gaiden 2 will be available as a exclusive for the Xbox 360 on June 6Th for $59.99.

"My 2 Cents"
If you have never played the Xbox version of Ninja Gaiden buy extra remote controls because this is one of those games that will have you sending your controllers into orbit across your living room. Add the fact that its like having an abusive spouse it will keep beating you and you will keep coming back. This game has everything you want in graphics, sound, game play and the dificulty will be that and then some.
