PSM Italy reviews Haze - 9/10

Apparently another review of HAZE has come in ourtesy of Haze's official website.

"Haze has been first reviewed by Famitsu and PSM Italy. The game received 34/40 in the famous Japanese magazine and stroke an astonishing 9/10 in PSM.

The game release is closing on quickly now, Haze will be available in stores on May 23rd. It's time to fight the good fight!"

[Breakfast]

hmm...off there website...i call shenanigans.

Edit: No Sonarus...this is a thread about Haze...not MGS 10
Edit: @ Sonarus...you never know...but, i agree. This thread should be about MGS, not Haze.

@ LenHart

Shenanigans in a different way. Id like to see them put all the bad reviews up on their site, too.

[sonarus]

lol where is the MGS4 review dammit i need more 10's:D

Yes i realized i have condemned unnecessary 10's in the past but for this one game all 10's are welcome :D

@breakfast. I don't care about haze all i care about is mgs4. But for the record i really don't see why haze will get below a 7.

[LenHart]

so do you think Ubi has the guts to report a false review.

Openzone that way----------->

[Darkiewonder]

Definitely a score worth it!

Everyone should get this AAA Title! I enjoyed the demo so DEFINITELY day 1 purchase for me!

[sonarus]

I heard if you up the difficulty, its a lot better but too lazy to re play the demo lol. Game should be ok. I really don't see why the game should get 6's and 4/10's. At the very least it should get a 7. I mean it has pretty decent looking vehicle sections 4p coop and multiplayer.

[LenHart]

that info was Fake and came from a Troll in the forums

GAMERTM didnt review HAZE

Gamereactor's review is worthless since everyone knows that they are SONY haters

[actas123]

This game should be in the 8.5 range.

[niall77]

but then again all because the demo was complete garbage doesnt mean the final game is.

Burnout paradice springs to mind, it had a bad demo and the game was awsome in the end.

But im still not buying Haze, I had enough shooters so far this gen to last a few more months and I still need to get the orange box (Pc version)

[LenHart]

I see no reason why you shouldnt like it

[spectyre]

Living up here in the North, we only get about 4-5 months of decent weather a year. I hardly play games during the summer months and I will have to make an exception for MGS 4. After that, my next game will probably be LBP... maybe SOCOM. I might pick up Haze as a bargain in '09 if everyone seems to like it.

[PoSTedUP]

ima deff get dish sh*t no matter what a review says

[LenHart]

but hold on

most reviews would be very postive

HAZE is AA if not AAA

[xaphanze]

The game looks good.I've overlooked the review that gave it 6 which also gave resistance 6.

[LenHart]

You can in no way give Resistance a 6/10.

resistance's online alone deserves an 8/10. It is just so fun. Famitsu was more impressed with Haze than Orange Box

[aiphanes]

And it was a 9 out of 10...just think it was a launch title...that really did not use the SPEs of the Cell...The online had 40 players with no lag...no other game has come close except for Warhawk with its lag free 32 players...but warhawk is extensively using the SPEs...

Resistance 2 will blow us all away...they will get the textures up to par...sure it will not look as good as Killzone 2...nothing will not even gears of war 2...but Resistance 2 will probably look as good as gears 2...insomiac has the talent...and resources of all of sony..

[PoSTedUP]

haters give good games bad reviews, they are also negative thinkers.

[pwnmaster3000]

another AAA title for the ps3 come on your on the role now, its sad that the other aaa titles last year had bad score because the media always said bad shiit about the ps3, but now it has change and its getting its truly real score

[Close_Second]

...Haze will be relegated to the bargin bin before too long. It needed to be a stellar AAA title to make an impact so soon after GTAIV and so soon before MGS4.

From what I have seen and read it looks like an ok title but nothing that convinces me to go out and buy it.

[xplosneer]

I don't go by reveiws usually, but really, when you have to say "astonishing" on a 9/10 review, really....
The gameplay was fun, great actually, which did matter a lot...but graphics at least on par with other games(Warhawk at least) could have been acheived here and weren't. There are cerrtain things in the FPS catagory needed here that lust seem lacking/missing. The "disappearing bodies" thing is fine because it's with the storyline but the faces just look plastered, the suits look good but don't make up for it, and while the physics are good the enviroments just make it crash. Sound and story are there and are slightly better than a run of the mill FPS but they don't make up for the graphical downside and the unpolished feel. 2 sides are fine and great but when the AI is so bad...really, they ran RIGHT INTO MY MACHINE GUN in the demo...no wall "cover" physics either...sorry FR.

[EZCheez]

There are a lot of people convinced merely by the name of the developer alone.

I know it's like being a sheep but it's really hard to believe that Free Radical would make a mediocre game. It's hard to believe because they never have. Call it hope, blind faith, whatever. I just don't think that they would release anything subpar.

[prunchess]

I am one of those people that will purchase this game on the developers reputation alone.

We all remember how last year it was nearly considered a sport to bash PS3 titles on this site. I think we are see an attempt to revive this sport at Haze's expense.

COD4 is getting traded in for HAZE. My only worry about HAZE is that it will have as many or more issues with it's online play as COD4.

[avacadosnorkel]

when all is said and done about half of the reviews for Haze give it a 9

Watch.

[PStriple703]

wow!
great reviews

[ISA_Scum]

34/40 from famitsu and now a good solid 9/10 from a PSM. That 6/10 means jack squat at this point, I'm happy with my pre-order at the moment.

I'm guessing a 7.0 from Gamespot (they hate the air we breathe if Sony is breathing in the same vacinity), a 8.2 from IGN and a good solid 8.4 from Gametrailers.

This is AA goodness for PS3 fans and I'm really anxious to get online and get high on nectar with the rest of you!

[aiphanes]

8.5 from Gamespot
9.2 from IGN
9.0 from Gametrailers

[ISA_Scum]

I certainly would love to see scores that high.

One things that's a guarantee though, you know EGM and 1up are going to rip this things considering their current feud with publisher Ubisoft, lol. So I think we can all count that review out to be fair!

[DJ]

So now i'm wondering how big a difference there is between the demo on PSN and the actual game...

[SacT0wnF1n3st]

This game has great potential but I'm still not sure what is nectar?

[xaphanze]

It boosts your abilities like aiming,detecting enemies, and so on...but overusing it will lead to overdose.

[Booyah]

I played on the net and we spend our time shooting the little block on each other's back so everyone would get berserk... that was hella fun

[RecSpec]

Hurry up and just release it.

Then work on TS4.

[Hububla]

Do your research! who cares about TS4 the next game they are working on is supposedly Starwars Battlefront 3!! hell yea baby! now thats one game ive been waiting for for years!!

[Killzownz84]

I still dont understand why a lot of people are saying this game is awful, lair was awful.. Haze demo was really fun in my opinion, grant it had flaws but overall the game was great and the pacing seems great, i could see a easy 9.2 on IGN and possibly a 8.5 on gamespot.. Gamespot is very bias but i do notice if a game has single player, online coop and online multiplayer that they tend to score pretty decent over at gamespot

[prunchess]

Too short though. Watch out for the usual suspects dissing the game every chance they get. Roll on Friday when we can put this game to test for ourselves.

[juuken]

Another 9.
Hmm, let's see the rest then.

[Aclay]

That other HAZE review score of 6/10 by that other reviewer no one has ever heard of was a joke. It's like a lot of reviewers in the gaming industry has this secret mission to bash PS3 games and give them as hard of a time as possible.

The only reviews that I will totally trust is any Playstation Site reviewer, EGM, or IGN and that's it.

I don't expect HAZE to be a revoultionary shooter for the PS3, but I definantly think that it shouldn't get anything lower than a 8.0/10. HAZE isn't a AAA game title, but it's a solid game.

If HAZE is developed by the same studio that was behind the TimeSplitters series, it shouldn't be that bad of a game. I just think that some reviewers are too critical toward PS3 games.

[Tryst]

I dont know, I have some doubt about IGN, esp since they rating Pro Evo soccer so highly (weren't they the highest reviewers of the game) and then when you play the game you realise that IGN is advertised throughout the game. For me IGN lost alot of credability there.

[Timesplitter14]

The demo made me puke blood several times so I'm not sure if it's worth 9/10

[TheHater]

The demo was an early build of the game.

[BubblesDAVERAGE]

I expect it to be as good as halo 3..which was an okay game now that i beat it but it wasn't what the critics were saying but they don't have the same kinda love for haze because it isn't halo

[xplosneer]

I don't like Halo . .

[bloomerist]

still no written review and no i dont count that swedish one with horrible english as a written review. got my game pre-ordered so im really hoping for some positive comments from reviewers.

[aiphanes]

You guts are forgetting the 4 way online coo-op...this has not been done on the PS3 yet...and there are no load times in this game...its just drop in drop out. The online will be killer in this game. The demo was made like over 8 months ago...the final game will be much better...but the game is comming out at the wrong time....but then again maybe not...its better to come out between GTA4 and MGS4...then after MGS4.....anything closer to September...then Socom Confrontation will take it out....so May it is...and it will be a sleeper hit for its online co-op and and online in general...

[CBaoth]

4 player co-op was featured in Rainbow6 Vegas, both co-op story and co-op terr hunt. Sadly, they removed the 4 player (in favor of 2 player) for the story mode in the sequel.

[Michael Jackson]

i give haze a 9/10 too. she was really good in barely legal. ooooh jenna..

disagree if you wanna dribble MJ's balls.. and no, i'm not talking about michael jordan..

[Tmac]

She? What's with all that She stuff? Movin' up in the world eh Michael?

[Michael Jackson]

I guess I enjoy getting the best of both worlds. lol

[Says you]

Has a split personality he doesn't even make sense time to time??.

[Meresin]

After rewatching some of the videos a few times, I think that the demo was a bad representation of the overall game. The videos also have a lot of the same pixelation, but in areas without a lot of vegetation, the environments look fine. They just did a crappy job rendering vegetation for whatever reason, and that's not something I'll begrudge them.

I also have a feeling that the story and voice acting get a lot better further in. A lot of people were down on the demo because of the stupidity of the Mantel troops and their dialog, but it should be kept in mind that these are *not* people you're supposed to like. They're not the "good guys," and as such, you're not supposed to get too attached to them.

Do I wish this game ran at 720p with decent AA? Yes. Is that going to ruin the game for me? No. I have a feeling that the story will be very good, and I like how they're executing it all in first person, without loading screens. That makes it feel much more like you're living the experience, and that's what I've always wanted from first-person games.

[aiphanes]

The demo never showed that...plus there were levels in Resistance 1 that look like crap...but there were levels that were simply awesome...the demo was just that a demo..the final game will be awesome!

[Meresin]

The big thing about Resistance was how smooth the picture was more than anything else. They utilized AA beautifully in that game. I only wish they'd done the same in Haze.

Still, I'm looking forward to it. It may not be graphically perfect, but I like the smoothness of the gameplay. I hope they fix rumble when firing guns, though...I don't like the lack of feedback from my Dualshock when I squeeze the trigger.

[Maddens Raiders]

from the early build and cursed it for being too slow, and not intense enough. Then after it came out and I bought it, I played it non-stop for 5 or 6 months, so I'm giving HAZE the benefit of the doubt. As a matter of fact I've had May 22nd circled on my calendar for a month now and I'm not even at home to play my PS3.

Yup, I'm getting HAZE.

[TheHater]

Do I care Haze got a 9/10? NO

Do I care Haze got a 6/10? NO

Am I getting this game? HELL YEAH

All reviewers sucks, and are bias. I buy a game because it look fun to me

[ScentlessApprentice7]

If this was on the 360, all these idiots disagreeing with the people who made positive remarks about this game would be coming in their pants about how "awesome" this game is. The PS3 is seriously turning into the "promising and dominant republican" role in the console wars, since so many idiotic democrates hate people who actually make sense like McCain and Bill O' Reilly.

[LenHart]

McCain and Bush make no sense.
Where are the WMDs after so much bloodshed? 3000 US soldiers died for no apparent reason

Promising and dominant republican---Oh this is why US economy is in such a sorry state with 8/9 trillion dollars in debt.

everybosy hates the Republicans cuz their plan is to make US a bankrupt state and make the Americans starve to death

[ScentlessApprentice7]

Saddamn Hussien had WMD's. He didn't lie about it because with the present data that was in front of him at the time before America invaded Iraq, The data pointed in the direction of Hussein having WMD's. Bush didn't lie. He didn't knowingly lie to the American public telling them that going to war was necessary. He actually believed it himself at the time when war was declared. If future events could have been forseen and prevented before their enacting, like so many of you bush-haters believe, we would have assasinated Adolf Hitler before he could have done so much damage to the world.

[LenHart]

even CIA/FBI admitted that

Bush forced the US soldiers to kill civilians in Iraq giving a bad name to the Americans. around 3000 US soldiers were killed in the ILLEGAL LUST for STEALING OIL

whats the point?

We are now in debt of trillions of dollars. We are being branded as Killers and thieves. Bush is no worse than Hitler. Mc Cain wont even get 5 votes in the elections . Americans cannot be fooled anymore

Obama and the Democrats FTW.

[Obama]

I am a ps3 fan, but don't compare us to those warmonger republicans like Bush and Mccain. They are truly the scum of the earth.

[Defectiv3_Detectiv3]

Why is it you feel the need to use this as a forum to regurgatate this neo-con propaganda? You need to learn to think for yourself and stop being a sheep.

Bush has data to suggest plenty of countries have WMD's, you don't see us invading them now do you? Well you would, but they aren't on Bush's personal agenda.

Fact of the matter is we started war w/ a country that never attacked us, and a country that was in fact against al quaeda. Iran is the one supporting Hamas, not Iraq.

But that's alright, since this war began we have spent 1.5 trillion a week to fight and the price of a barrel of crude oil has more than doubled. This war will cost the average american household 30,000, and now we are in worse deficit than we have ever been in b4, coming off of our highest surplus from the Clinton Amdin. But you keep fighting the good fight Senseless.

And I'll tell you another thing, I myself am a devoted PS3 fanboy, but I'm not so blind as to say that Haze will be a good game. If you've played the demo then you should know this game is garbage!

The only reason it got such a high score from this review was because it was Playstation Magazine.

[Sir Ken Kutaragi]

AHH...Like a Dagger in xBot Lemmings Hearts!!! ;-D
(Not that they got a Heart anyway!!!) ;-D

I Trust PSM + OPM + PSW Mags!!!(NOT Paid for sites by M$!!!) ;-D

'PLAY-BEYOND...xBox 360's LACK OF GAMES!!!' ;-D

[leon76]

...I don't know PSM Italy, but I know PSM Portugal (note: some reviews are very different for example from PSM international and UK)!!! Is a mag that I buy every month, and is the source of reviews that I trust more, if not the only!! They just review everything honestly and unbiased...Their reviews are the most close to my personal view of the games...for me if PSM Portugal give the game 9/10 like its cousterpart italian, the game will be awesome, that's for sure!!!!!

[psycho360]

@1.6
Of course these sites are not paid for by MS, cuz they are paid by $ony.

[LiquifiedArt]

oh and the "War" is not what is hurting the economy. If you knew anything about economics its truly the Banks fault for lending people too much money who couldn't afford to keep pay it back. Its called GREED. Once they start to up the price of Bonds the market will begin to normalize again. They continued to cut the interest to get people to spend money. AND THEY DID. problem is the wrong people with horrible credit were spending money they couldn't pay back. Regardless, its not as cut and dry as "We are at war, we are now losing tons of money." don't be ridiculous. Economic principles is a very complex system with many principles that need balancing (i.e. a seesaw) Also, its hihgly unlikey the president straight out lied to go to war, (REMEMBER the HOUSE AND SENATE APPROVED IT). DUH you guys need some serious schooling on facts of life. Rather then Propaganda.

Sidenote: I dont think any of the presidental candidates are good this time around. HOWEVER, i will still vote for McCain, because as far as "Raising Taxes, Let government raise your children and take care of you" Democratic principals are concerned its FOOLISH. And only a Fool wouldn't take responsibilty for there own childs actions. Also Hilary is a Cut throat maniac, and Obama same as hilary wouldn't lift 1 finger to help any other country out. AND LET ME TELL YOU, there will surely be wars in the near future, the Bible most definetly speaks about it.

~Later

[Defectiv3_Detectiv3]

It is hurting it more than real estate and sub prime lending! War causes turmoil in the middle east which causes the price of petrolium to go up which in turn cause the price of EVERYTHING to go up. Not to mention this is the first time we've been in a war and have had tax cuts instead of a tax increase!

When Bush took office a barrel of crude cost 30$, now it costs 120$. By the end of the year it is predicted we will see 5$ a gallon gasoline prices. That hurts every industry!

I find the fact you are voting for Mccain hilarious but predictable. If Mccain would have his way we would go to war with Iran, which would act as another sap on our economy. Not to mention Mccain was the first to speak out against Bushes tax cuts, now he supports them. Mccain was anti-torture, now he supports it.

The fact that you cite the Bible in a political arguement is HIGHLY disturbing to me. Typical neo-con sheep. Let the gov. rape the needy while it gives kick backs to its special interest groups. Use them good ol Reagenomics - spend the money before you have. Loot the national treasury if you have to. Don't worry if the price of the dollar is hitting all time lows against other currencies.

People like you are the reason western civilization is in decline.

[ScentlessApprentice7]

You just contricted yourself with that post you made. You seem like the kind of person who would just blindly follow the half-witted opinion of Hillary Clinton. Do you actually believe the propaganda that says that the American government trained Al-Qaeda and conspired the entire events of 9/11?

And BTW my user name is ScentlessApprentice. Did you get that??? SCENTLESS, not Senseless. Can you even comprehend the difference between those two words, Tony??? scenTless, as in not having any smell or odor, not scenSEless. Are you even out of middle school yet, Tony???

[Defectiv3_Detectiv3]

Your an idiot kid. I was listening to Nirvana b4 you were born. No Sh1t its Scentless you retard, but its supposed to sound like "Senseless". Cobain isn't referring to a scent as in something you would smell, he's talking about scents, like in dollar and scents you FOOL!

Oh yeah, and last time I checked, contricted wasn't in the dictionary.

But if you knew anything, you would know that our inability to see the afghan/soviet war through led to the anti-american sentiment that is rampant in that country today. We supplied the afghans w/ the means to fight but not the means to rebuild. We gave them over 100million dollars in weapons but we couldn't spare 1 million dollars for schools or 1 million dollars to rebuild roads.

So in turn what happened in Afghanistan is what happened in a lot of impoverished nations in the middle east. The islamic fundamentalist seized control and with it they brought their anti western beliefs.

Don't talk to me about the Afghan war, I know more than you ever will son. My co-worker lived in Afghanistan since he was 14, and he talks regularly to the family that he still has their. Afghanistan is no better now than it was before. Before there was order. It might have been strict, you might have got your hand cut off for stealing, but there was still law. Now it is corrupt, you can't do anything w/o bribing someone. If you want to get someone out of jail you have to pay 40,000 in their currency. Not to mention the mass destruction that took place in that country.

This all could have been averted if we would have just given the afghans the means to rebuild their nation, but all we cared about is defeating the soviets.

[ScentlessApprentice7]

And last time I checked, The song ScentlessApprentice (which in case you forgot is from In Utero) is meant to be interpreted as SCENTLESS apprentice, because Kurt Cobain named the song after reading a particular novel about a child who was born with a very heightened sense of smell, but with no smell of his own. Why the hell would Kurt Cobain be referring to cents (the correct way to spell cents, as in referring to dollars and cents, YOU FOOL).

The song was inspired by the novel Perfume by Patrick Suskind, about a man born with an amazing sense of smell but no smell of his own. He was an apprentice in a perfume shop and becomes a murderer of young girls for their scent. He basically starts to kill people to steal their smell. It's a novel about abhorrent irony.

So yes tony, the song is meant to be interpreted as SCENTless apprentice, because it fits the theme of the book. Here you are trying to give me some kind of a lesson about the music I listen to, and you don't even know the history behind Nirvana's music. I know more than you do. I guess you must be some 30-something year old man (I assume since you refer to me as "son") who still can't get a position with your employer that is beyond the lower-levels of the company's heirarchy. I guess trying to make yourself seem smarter than a younger man like me is what keeps you going. I am actually a veteran of the U.S. Army. I bet you haven't even done anything yourself to serve this country in any shape or form.

"My co-worker lived in Afghanistan since he was 14, and he talks regularly to the family that he still has their" Oh so if you want to start sounding like a smart a$$ and start correcting me on the proper spelling of words. THEIR refers to possession. As in: "Their house was the most beautiful one in town" The proper spelling of that word in the context of your sentence would be "THERE", not "THEIR". Damn you seriously can't give a lesson on anything.

[Fat Bastard]

It's really best not to bother with retarded blinded democrats like Lenhart. They're the ones that like to sit back and watch as evil dictators like Hussein kill and torture their own people, as well as hide WMD and fund terrorist organizations. If you put yourself in Bush's shoes, what would you have seen? There's an evil guy who kills his own poeple ruling a country full of Muslims who want to blow us up, and then evidence comes that they have WMD. So, do the right thing or be greedy and keep our debt level at the trillions it is now. Bush partially knew what he was getting into, and to say oil prices are going up cause of the war is just retarded. If you look into Exxon and other oil companies, you will see that they are run by Americans with tons of money, and are making huge profits. And besides, we'll be out of oil within the next 20 or so years probably and by that time it won't matter

[Defectiv3_Detectiv3]

You think Iraq is the only fascist regime in the world? You could fill a dictionary w/ fascist regimes. But don't tell me, Bush is just going to war out of the goodness of his heart! If has nothing to do with his attempt at using the military industrial complex for his own gain!

And because of the goodness of Bushes heart 3 million Iraqis are seeking refuge, many of them being the doctors, lawyers and teachers that are the backbone of any society. These people were cast out of their homes because the total lack of order has empowered the facists, and in turn destroyed communities.

To say Iraq is better off today is a fallacy.

Fact of the matter is we went to war w/ a nation that never attacked us. Suddam was against al quaeda - they were in cahoots w/ Iran, Iraq's unfriendly neighbor. And these WMDs we were supposed to find were never defined in the first place. Were they nukes, chemical weapons, dirty bombs? All we found was Hazmat suits.

North Korea, Iran, Pakistan, these are countries that pose a much greater threat than Iraq.

Not to mention that the intelligence he based the war on was highly flawed. This intelligence was given to us by the Germans, they confirmed it was flawed, but that didn't stop Bush.

And to say the War has no impact on oil prices are downright ignorant. Oil companies know that in a time of war they can get away w/ charging more because the U.S. can not allow an oil shortage to hinder them from fighting - it would make them look weak.

There is a reason gas prices don't change on the weekends. The big whigs who set the prices are off! This just goes to show gas prices are not set by any realistic factor. Its all about how much they can milk it.

Don't you think it's funny that even that oil companies post record profits year after year? They never have an underperforming year - even at times when the economy is bad. Could this have anything to do w/ the fact that we have a president that is heavily invested in the energy industry? Do you really think he is going to work on solutions to our energy crisis? You know how much money the president and his supporters would lose?

@ Senseless - Wow, you're 22 years old and you're already out of the army? Talk about not being able to hack it. And I could care less about what the song Senseless Apprentice is about, I was only using it to make a clever pun about your idiotic logic.

[ScentlessApprentice7]

I bet you couldn't even survive recruit training. I was actually in the Army for 2 years; as soon as I graduated high school in 2004 and I left to further pursue a career in business and accounting in 2006. I didn't plan on making the military my permanent career path because I was honestly just hoping to obtain a lot of additional funding from the Army to go to a good college.

The day you join the military and stay there for at least 24 months is the day that you can have a respectable opinion on how military life works and how to "hack" it. I have actually "hacked" the military for a greater amount of time than you ever will (in case you didn't know, two years in the military is greater than your current tenure in the military, which is zero).

You completely got owned by my previous post, so don't try to act now like you really "didn't care" and were just "making a pun". How can you legitimately joke about it when you didn't even read my user name correctly? You, my broken condom-of-a-man, are the one with the idiotic logic.

[Says you]

There system well there right like the Americans hating on the PS3 considering its more advance then it I mean come on thats what they do is make there things advance there electronics thats what there known for unlike the other system that breaks alot and only use the principal of the architecture of the PC.

[Chapulin]

Should be lots of fun with 4 player co-op.

[trancefreak]

thats right haze you go on with your bad self

[akaFullMetal]

should be fun, and will be great to play with friends in 4 player coop

[Lookbehind]

If I want a game I buy it.. I don't rely on others people judgement..people who do are usually weak minded and easy to control and I notice there's a few on here.I have this pre -ordered and I'll see some of you online.

[PSWe60]

mean while back on N4G:

The HAZE demo was alright. I like the weapons and the Nectar concept is different. The character design would have been good if this were a launch title, but oh well. I'm going to get the game AFTER MGS 4. Ubisoft screwed themselves by delaying this title until it was practically set to release weeks before MGS 4.

[BubblesDAVERAGE]

There are very few next gen games with bots...so thats a reason im getting it also

[TheTerminator]

Killzone is to PS2 as Haze is to PS3

[mistertwoturbo]

As is Halo 3 is to XBOX 360.

Overhyped and Mediocre.

[Defectiv3_Detectiv3]

And Haze is gonna be awful. I've been following the game since it was announced and I played the demo, I got to say, this game is downright lame.

The weapons suck. They are just the typical rifles in every game, no weight to them, no special features. The whole "nectar" mechanic is just a gimmick. Its only fun when you go around meleeing ppl.

This game doesn't do anything to seperate itself from the pack of other fps's. There is nothing fresh about it. I for one am shocked that Free Radical spent so much time dev. this game and this is what they delivered.

Haze is just a mediocre shooter drowning in a sea of mediocre shooters.

I would have bought this game even if it was just "alright". But from everything I've seen and played I'm going to stay as far away from this game as I can.

[yanikins111]

what the two that were in the demo?

[n00bPwner]

To me having 4 player co-op and bots in the same game is already a really good start. This gme looks to have the options to hang with the big boys for awhile atleast. I am going to wait until it comes out so i can do some research on it myself. probbly rent it first if the reviews are iffy. I think it will be pretty good tho. Free Radical has a pretty nice track record that speaks for itself. So im am confident that haze will turn out nice. Plus i really need a good FPS on my PS3 with the multiplayer functions in this game. like i said before, having co-op AND bots in a FPS is absolutely great for me. And i hope and pray that those options become standard by next gen. Along with reply theater. Can you imagine how hilarious it would be to have replay theater in a games like gears 2 and resistance. Ive seen some crazy things happen in gears 1 that i wish i could have shared with people.

BACK on topic..
I think haze will be good tho..

4 player co-op
16 man multiplayer
Full single player story (unlike unreal tournament 3)
in game friends list
VEHICLE SUPPORT!!! (almost a must have)

I just have my fingers crossed for a good story, good gameplay, and characters that i will actually remember after i beat the game.

[Ali_The_Brit]

LMAO all xbots saw the reviews of the demo and wherent smart enough to realise the demo was like 7 months old. so its ALOT imroved now, i didnt plan on getting it but its coming in my second PS3 bundle so i am

I played the haze demo.

I enjoyed the demo, but that's nothing to the actual game.

The game is big, alot more going on, good story.

You'll see.

Nothing wrong with the graphics, looked nice to me:)

As long as it's smooth i'm happy.

I also enjoyed the bourne supremacy demo. Framerate was abit twitchy here and there, but the fighting and,graphics,and cinematic feel i really liked.

You know, you either like a game or you don't, does not make it a bad game.

[felidae]

normally i trust gameradar ... i mean, i don't think that Haze will be as great as Bioshock, Gears of War or Halo 3.

it's so strange with ps3 games ...

Forza Azzurri!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Free Radical hasn't made a game that i haven't enjoyed yet.

i was just replaying Second Sight, and that game is so underrated it's unbelievable.

i loved the Timesplitters titles also.

i'll be picking up Haze tomorrow, now that i've made GTAIV my b*tch, and i'm looking for a nice in between game to take my mind off of the 4 weeks until i slip MGS4 into my PS3 (am i the only one who thought that last parted sounded dirty?)

also, am i the only one that enjoyed the Haze demo? i thought it was pretty intense firefighting, and most importantly, i noted that the framerate was rock solid, and the controls were really smooth and responsive.

i'm burning out on FPS titles, but outside of Haze and Resistance 2, there aren't any more FPS games coming out that have my interest.

i don't understand how people can cream their pants when the next game from Rare, Bungie, or Bioware is announced, but they completely dismiss it when a new title from Free Radical is announced.

it's not like Free Radical was founded by the developers who created the original Goldeneye, and Perfect Dark. oh, wait, they WERE.

i distinctly remember people saying how Goldeneye 64 pioneered multi-player gaming on consoles. i wonder who made that seminal, influential game?

[DuMb_N_dUmBeR]

the demo wasn't great, but i have really high hopes for Haze, lets hope it delivers and gets more good reviews. the 6/10 review was bias because Sweden hates sony.

[ScottEFresh]

Sounds good!!!

[DFresh]

I think this game is fun game play, story, weapons, etc. all really cool.
The graphics aren't nearly as good as Call of Duty 4's graphics but still pretty good a little bit better than Unreal Tournament 3.
So, why are you guys talking politics again?
The only thing I'm going to say is that President Bush's family owns an oil company.
Middle East has oil, Bush is an oil owner see the pattern it's all about money.
Democrats are better than Republicans they have better views and actually have a solution to get us out of the problems we are in right now.
Obama is the best choice for this position so give the man some credit.
Hillary doesn't know what the tell she's talking about and uses her experience working with Bill Clinton as an excuse to get votes. Nothing wrong with a woman in office just as long as it isn't her.
McCain is just using Vietnam P.O.W experience as an excuse to get votes.
Looking at the results, the press conference there answers and solutions it's clear to me that Obama is the best choice even though he might be the youngest of the candidates running for office.
PS3, Nectar, and Democrats FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Got it in the post on friday, but couldn't play it until yesterday.

The graphics are a bit underwhelming, but it looks good overall. They aren't going for photo realistic, more of a sci fi shiny plastic look. The sound is good.

The story is well integrated in the game. I am playing through it again on very hard (unlocked after finishing the game once). It can be a bit easy on normal, so I am having more fun now. You can access the friends list in menu, just as in the demo.

I am looking forward to play online when every one else gets the game.

As a single player game I would rate it 85. Hope mp will be good...
