    Shane Carpenter lacks in balls... 2

    HAZE- PS3Reviews lately seem to be taking the easy way out and comparing everything to COD4. “Army of Two’s online isn’t as good as Call of Duty”, or “Everybody’s Golf World Tour is decent, but there’s no martyrdom”. But I’m going to review HAZE for what it is: The latest FPS from Free Radical Design.You’ve probably heard already that HAZE is all based around Nectar, a performance enhancing drug that has its downsides. You take the role of Shane Carpenter, a character you you’ll probably grow to...

    Oh noes 0

    Haze. My personal most anticipated game of the year. It's good, don't get me wrong, it's a very capable shooter, but it is just so undoubtedly average and inconsistent, that it disappoints beyond belief. I could have easily given Haze big points off for letting me down so horribly, as I write this review totally heartbroken, but I decided to let it go. It does have reasonable merits, but I really have to wonder where the hell the Free Radical shine and polish went, in this shooter that could've ...

    What a Disappointment 1

    I was so excited to play Haze before it came out, but it felt so last gen and graphically, it was terrible. The game's concept is that Nector is a drug used for combat, but at the same time, it is turning soldiers into mindless killers. The concept sounds interesting, but once you hear the very laughable dialog, you start to wonder, "were they serious?" The gameplay also makes you wonder if they were serious because the guns all feel the same and they all kind of look the same, and worse of all,...

    Simple and Nothing But 1

                  Let's put this out straight away: Haze is not a GREAT game. Shooter fans obviously needed to feel a little ticked and (quite frankly) disappointed that this hyped-up PS3 exclusive hosts a generic arsenal of guns, along with a bordering-to-mundane storyline, and some really outdated graphics. On the other hand, however, Haze does do a couple of things right. Not super, beyond-duty right, but right enough to avoid more unkind words from us gawking reviewers. Haze is a solid shooter t...

    Haze is as mediocre as they come. 2

    It's sad that, even in 2008, we still have to put up with this amount of sheer mediocrity. Haze has been looked at as an interesting first person shooter since it was first announced. Coming from the developers of TimeSplitters, expectations were a bit high. It's also garnered plenty of attention from being an exclusive PS3 game. Unfortunately, for every step Haze takes forward, it takes 5 steps back. The graphics in Haze are nothing special. While it doesn't look bad necessarily, I expect mor...

    Looking Hazy 2

    The review says it must be 100 words but really i find it impossible to find 100 words to describe this game. Its just bad the story is lack luster and the gameplay is slow and buggy. Just the core gaming experience really blows so other then the words Ive written i think i can find 2 that truly describe it Total Garbage!...

    It's all a little hazey 0

    Let me start by saying that Haze really wasn't on my radar as a "must have" title. Honestly I didn't even know it was being released this week. Well, against better judgment I purchased the game. That's not to say it's bad, but after coming off so many other great shooters, it's really a let down. On to the review.GRAPHICS: Don't let the screen shots fool you. This game is not the next Crysis. If there was ever a definition of mixed bag, it's Haze. The graphics go from great to terrible quickly,...

     Haze was a game which was overhyped all too much for its own good. What gave it the hype? Was it the craze that the creators were Ubisoft? Or maybe the jealousy that Playstation hadn't had any half decent first person shooters since Resistance: Fall of Man? Calling Haze mediocre or even a piece of garbage is harsh because while Haze doesn't justify the hype it received, it still offers something original and satisfying. Haze purposely or accidentally made the missions like a Haze. Missions are...

    This is what I call a shitty game 0

    Haze, really 5 words sum up what I think of this game, Its a piece of shit. Why is it a piece of shit well I guess its time to start digging into this smelly mound of anal waste. First off this game is ugly it looks like an Xbox game almost sometimes whether it be the low resolution textures or the the just unimpressive scope overall its just an ugly-ass game, but I have seen worse and it isn't the worst looking game on the PS3. Another thing that sucks ass big time about this game is the voice ...

    Give me more Nectar, dammit! 0

    Usually I associate the term "could've been" alongside a piece of media which held prospering potential but having said that, one with untapped potential. Haze is no exception. And so you can imagine my disappointment to see all that potential get washed away, especially under the surveillance of Free Radical; a well respected team, renowned for developing fine shooters. It just gets wrapped up under completely run-of-the-mill gameplay. Okay, maybe not "completely," but after the first f...

    drugs are bad, mmkay? 0

    Political commentary is just fine for FOX News and its ilk. I do not enjoy it nor am I informed enough to care and can avoid it entirely just by skipping a channel. It has its own bloviated space and that's fine, so long as it leaves me and one of my favorite pastimes alone. Things were nice and separated until Haze arrived, the video game equivalent of either a radical right wing recruitment video or a liberal left wing smear campaign, maybe both. I am well aware of the opinions held by the res...
