Kotaku snubs Too Human?

Over the weekend Owen Good of Kotaku fame posted up their weekly list of upcoming releases. In the notes preceding this list he sums up the weeks releases as he always does;

Looks like we've cycled over to a DLC week, headlined by Ratchet & Clank Future: Quest for Booty on PlayStation Network, with Galaga Legions coming out a day earlier (but far, far overshadowed) on XBLA. After R&C, it's a very thin week. Interesting that a downloadable title is the heavy here.

Really? A DLC title being the heavy this week? And here I thought that Microsoft's most anticipated exclusive since Halo 3 was dropping.

He then went on and discussed one other title -- the shovelware Anubis for the Wii. As one of (what I assume is still) many looking forward to the release of Too Human, I couldn't help but feel this was a real slap in the face. Kotaku reader okenny summed up my feelings better than I could myself;

Un-fucking_believable! "Interesting that a downloadable title is the heavy here" ...beginning to think Dyack really did kill someones child in the game's journalist scene or committed some unforgivable act of murder. To seriously have a game get dissed this bad and this much when it's not even bad makes me think something else is going on here.

So what say you? Glaring oversight on the part of Weekend Editor Owen Good, or intentional diss?

UPDATE: Reader Mookie has let us know that Owen has updated his original post and offers a full mea culpa. Score one for Owen (and two for our attentive readership!)

Well Owen has edited it and noted that he did forget Too Human.

Either snubbed for some petty reason, or missed completely because of shoddy journalism

With Kotaku, either is entirely possible.

How could he forget about Too Human? That game is gold by that way. I love it.
