Yet another satiracle review and look at a great upcoming game, Haze. With a tagline that reads: "Drug-addled mercenaries wearing glowing power armor trudging through the jungle with guns. What could possibly go wrong?" you have to give it at least a glance.
""When Ubisoft first showed off Haze the game wowed many people for its graphics and unique gritty science fiction vision of the near future. It did not take long however for those initial impressions to be forgotten or turned to disappointment with the game after many delays and confusion regarding what platform the game would eventually end up on.""
"After five years of hype, speculation and delay, Ubisoft’s Haze breaks cover - and despite being developed by Free Radical, the team behind the excellent TimeSplitters 2 on PS2 - it fails to better UT3, Resistance and CoD4. Haze looks poor, lacks set-pieces and feels like a novel idea that missed its window of opportunity, frayed by the requests of nervous Brand Managers and cruel demands of next-gen development.
Haze’s fall is, in part, amplified by our heightened expectations, but by nex..."
"Haze was touted as a great PS3 exclusive from a developer well versed in first-person shooter mechanics. While Free Radical does have a solid pedigree, Haze does not live up to the company's reputation thanks to a horrible plot, weak gameplay mechanics and visuals that are truly underwhelming. While playing with friends is enjoyable, not even those are enough to bring this lackluster title around."
A lot of people have been berating Haze, it seems everyone has a problem with the PS3 exclusive shooter, it has bad graphics, the reflections aren't perfect, the debris disappear too fast. Well to all the naysayers out there I say 4 single words
Famistu gives Haze 34/40
So the bland shooter gets the equivalent of a 9/10, Famitsu gave this very same score to Valve's gaming bundle Orange Box, so maybe you should give Haze a second chance?
