Haze gets 34/40 from Famitsu!

May 14, 2008 in Reviews comments 12

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?

    34/40 != 9/10, more of like 8.5/10.

      Which is above what I expected it to get. 8.5 is about the average rating for most PS3 exclusives.

    Wasn't so impressed by the demo but I'll still get it. It was good just a bit disappointing.

    Well this is good news to see the game actually getting praise. I always knew I was getting it anyway. The mechanics feel good and it just looks like a fun game, period. I'm not going to dissect everything just for the hell of being a critic.

    Famitsu rates everything good, this means little.

    Wow great. Maybe now you can stop your Haze hate Red.

    Also they don't always rate everything good.

    I agree with iLL, i was going to get this regardless cause it looked very interesting.

    34/40 is a decent score, but it's nothing to rave about, tbh.

    I mean, "Pro Yakyuu team o Tsukurou!" got a 33 and I don't even know what the hell that is. So what does that say about Haze?

      It means that that Famitsu is a very bad source. Like I said, they're very easy-going.

      It says nothing. Just because you never heard of a game doesn't mean it isn't deserving of a high score.
