AnandTech: Haze Review

In the heat of the console war, gamers rely upon exclusive titles that set their gaming platform apart from the others, all the while instilling confidence in the decision to buy one console over another. With only a few of A-list exclusive titles available for the PlayStation 3, owners of the console have been chomping at the bit for more new IPs that are created solely for the PS3. Enter Haze, a sci-fi first person shooter from video game developer Free Radical.

Haze is a fun game in its own right, but is not amazing by any stretch of imagination. Its style and fun weapons place it among the ranks of other shooters released within the past year, such as Turok, TimeShift, Army of Two, and The Club. PS3 owners looking for a new experience will find it here, but those looking for a shooter to compliment the likes of Call of Duty 4 and Resistance: Fall of Man will not. Haze is simply a mediocre FPS that players may enjoy and forget. Haze leaves itself open for a sequel, but Haze 2 doesn't sound quite as exciting as it could have.

"Haze is a fun game in its own right, but is not amazing by any stretch of imagination"

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Why is AnandTech doing a game review is beyond me.but good start and bad pick i would review Age of Conan or Mass Effect (PC). mainly sticking with PC Games but not a bad start. and no numbers is smart lol
DECENT! i think it's DECENT too but a shameful PS3 Ex. game.

deeznuts5842d ago

To tell you the truth, I would probably trust an Anandtech review more than I would some gaming sites. Anand throughout all my years in the PC hobby (about a decade) has been straight and never comes off as having a horse in any race.

goldenzealot5843d ago

this game fails just like the ps3

Sez 5843d ago

you are so right. i downloaded this game an it plays like sh!t.

BeaArthur5843d ago

Rented it last week, and happy I didn't spend $60 on it.

Ju5842d ago

Open and fair review I can agree with.

Top 10 Bad Games by Good Studios

Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "When shopping for new video games you can often trust the name publisher or developer on the box to be an indication of the quality of the game. Names like Nintendo, Square Enix, Sony Interactive Entertainment, Capcom, Xbox Game Studios and Sega are world famous because they helped shape the industry by releasing some of the most defining video games of all time. Though sometimes even these great gaming houses stumble and put out a stinker."

Splatterhouse remake . Loved the og’s at the arcade growing up . Hell the best thing about the remake was the og,s were included . And left alive by Square . That game had so much potential , but the gameplay was worse horrendous .

Game-ur1421d ago

once Great studios getting destroyed is actually common. happened with ND and Last of Us2, Bioware and Mass Effect Andromeda/Anthem, Bungle and Destiny .

BeRich2331422d ago

Fuse should have been on that list (Insomniac Games)

Yui_Suzumiya1422d ago

Splatterhouse remake kicked ass

merryja1422d ago

I personally don't like these games.

East76lands1422d ago

I'm pretty much certain that any Sonic game that comes out will be terrible, I've not enjoyed one since the original side-scrolling days of the MegaDrive.

HarryMasonHerpderp1422d ago

Then you might like a recent sonic "sonic mania".

jaymacx1422d ago

For this Topic it says Good Studios that make bad games. Sonic Team hasn't been good in years.
