Too Human demo coming next week News • News • Eurogamer.net

News Xbox 360

As part of Microsoft's E3 bonanza.

Microsoft is to release a demo for vikings-in-space adventure Too Human next week.

It's all part of plans to "bring E3 home" to Xbox Live members, starting 14th July. Along with the demo there will be news from the show floor, behind-the-scenes footage, new trailers and screenshots. New gamerpics and themes are promised too.

Microsoft didn't say exactly which day the demo will be out, nor for which regions - but did confirm the E3 extravaganza will be reaching out to "Xbox 360 fans across the globe".

For those who aren't familiar, Too Human is a 360 exclusive from Denis Dyack's studio, Silicon Knights. It's a third-person action game with RPG elements, and an online co-op mode.

Find out what Tom makes of it by reading his recent hands-on preview. Too Human is out on 29th August.

didn't Blue Dragon have a demo?

Anyway normally demos are a good chance to see if a game is likely to live up to the hype. In this case however it will be to see if the game is likely to deserve all the negativity surrounding it.

A demo... nice that I can try it... but I can't see myself buying this game as it looks so damn mediocre in the gameplay videos I've seen.

"surprised they are releasing a demo of an RPG... usually not the norm. "

Its not an RPG exactly. More like RPGish.

And demos af RPGs are common.

Looks like I might have to turn on my 360 for the first time in a couple of months then . Even though your preview was certainly less than praising.

With all the noise around this game, all the legal squabbles, all the respect or scorn for the developer, all the people baying for it's failure to be a victory in the console war, I think about the best thing Silicon Knights can do is to get a demo out so that people can make their own mind up, so good on them.

Just want to say that Microsoft do an awesome job of this every year. All of these big shows (E3, GDC, X0' etc) have their own 'bringing it home' feature on the marketplace, and as a gamer its fantastic.

Getting full videos of the conferences, trailers, demos, all that kind of thing updated through Live while the show is still going on, is awesome.
