Which one will you be picking up on August 6th? I love John Woo and Stranglehold gets me excited to play a John Woo story. On the other hand Too Human is full of so much more. It seems to have a lot more depth than Stranglehold and I have been following this game since it first was announced on the PS1.

I will most likely eventually get both, but with me not wantig to plop down 120 in one day and have one game sit on the side while I try to play the other, I don't feel like it will be smart.

Anywho, which game will you be picking up, if you had to choose one?

Definately Too Human. I wasnt very interested in it at first but the more info that came out about the game, the more I had to get it.

I won't get either unless i ask for Too Human for Christmas (which won't happen because i want like 5 other games). Stranglehold doesn't really interest me at all and i am also limiting the numbers of shooters i am getting for the 360 because if i own like 10 of them i know i will only play 2 (that being halo and some other good shooter).

I may eventually pick up Too Human after the reviews and after it gets cheap or best buy has a sale on it (like they did with Rainbow6 Vegasa month or two after it came out).

So i chose Too Human.

Stranglehold looks good but not really unique in any way except for those sweet destructible environments. But we have sooooooo many shooters on the 360 (most of them very good, though). But Too Human just looks f'n amazing, both in how it actually looks, and how it looks like it'll play.

That's a hard choice since both games have the potential to be either very good or very bad. That said, I'd have to go with Too Human because it looks more appealing to me

Too Human will be the better game. Midway usually doesn't publish too many great titles.

definitely Too Human. if SK can get the co-op right and the online portion has some lasting legs... this will be the best game this year (you hear me right Halo fanboys :P).

I'm 90% positive Too Human will be a pretty mediocre game. It's had to many problemsin it's development...

No, that isn't a typo. It's been in development for over 10 years now, almost. It was orginally a PS1 game, then a Gamecube, and now it is comin to the 360. Also, I doubt it will make it out by August 6th. That is the date that EB/Gamestop currently has listed, but I think it is rather unlikely that a fairly high-profile game like that would have so little info on it so close to release. Still should make it out before the end of the year though.

And I will definitely be getting Too Human over Stranglehold. There are so many good shooters coming out shortly after that (Bioshock, COD 4, GTA IV, Metroid Prime 3, Half-Life 2, and Halo 3) that another shooter is hardly needed. Not to mention that after playing the awesome single-player for darkness, i don't need another shooter for a long time (though that pile of games i just mentioned are good enough that I will be getting more)

Is Too Human going to have 4 player co-op split screen or only online?

Stranglehold by default. Too Human looks like utter crap from what I've seen. It seems it's all about the combat , and in that respect it looks to be more of a button masher than Dynasty Warriors.
