3 Months Later, Too Human is 50% Cheaper

Goozer Says: The woes for Too Human aren’t over yet. Everyone knows the background story and how it took forever to release, and how the critics slammed it. The latest story is the plummeting price point…

On September 2, The Goozex Report ran an article detailing how Too Human hit the Most Offered list 15 days after the game was released. Now, three months later, Too Human can be bought from eBay for $24.99. The Goozex point value has dropped to 950 points and I expect it to keep dropping.

Goozex traders have bought and sold Too Human 173 times since August 23. That’s a lot of trades. The frenzy began four days after the game released. That doesn’t bode well for the game. It’s one thing if the critics pan it, but if gamers grow tired of something brand new after four days, well, that’s a whole other story.

Thoughts of a Random Gamer reviewed this game back when it was still relevant. Check out Part 1 and Part 2.

I’m sure I’ll still check it out one day, when it’s worth 150 points…

Digg!

Too Human Too Awful?

This is a first for me. Granted, I’ve only been using Goozex since April, but this is still a first for me.

I was very much looking forward to Too Human. I DL’d the demo the day it was available and I kind of liked it. It was a little hard to control, and I told myself I’d have to get used to flicking the RS to swing a weapon, but you have to get accustomed to every new game.

And then Too Human was released. And the critics slammed it (Metacritic score: 66). And now it’s in the Top 10 of Most Offered games on Goozex. And it was released 15 days ago. Gamers are tired of this game after 15 days? Whoa boy. This is a doozy. I have a strong feeling this game is not going to be worth 1000 points for very long. I’ll keep a close eye on this one.
