Already seen them, looks great, Lemmings bashed.
Here's another 5 page Haze bashing thread where I will have to fend off the fanboys... :(
Holy crap relax on that bloom effect. Seriously. It's like some parts are covered in snow.
Anyway, game looked cool. But I don't think I'll buy it. I might just rent it.

4 Player co-op and some positive previews are why I'm interested. The art style and graphics do seem derivative though.
yeah, but the market is flooded with fpss, many of which I love, but here nothing is that impressive. did you watch those videos, esp. the driving one; that doesn't look exciting at all.[QUOTE="Not-A-Stalker"]Already seen them, looks great, Lemmings bashed.

Why do you need to fend off fanboys? It's a timed exclusive.
Lemmings. Have you seen them in full force in a Haze thread? It's amazing. You would think it was Big Rigs the way they bash this game. :| Simply put, Lemmings blindly hate any type of exclusive on the PS3.

I think Haze is, unfortunately, that sort of one-trick pony FPS that fails to explore its Big New Idea to a level that makes it rise from the pack. But then again, as our own Michael McWhertor was quick to point out:

that's funny because i am wandering the same thing about halo..
Hmmm, because it's the best console FPS. :)

why do you assume anyone who 'bashes' haze only does it because it a sort-of-exclusive. Maybe the game just doesn't look that fun, esp compared to others in the same genre.[QUOTE="tempest91"][QUOTE="Not-A-Stalker"]Already seen them, looks great, Lemmings bashed.

I see. Well it's partially the developers fault for releasing it in Halo season. At that point you're asking for endless Halo vs Haze topics. I mean their names are almost the same for God's sake.

That's funny. I seem to recall the Sony fanboys not giving 2 craps about this game until it became "some type of PS3 exclusive"
The hypocrisy works both ways.

or it could be that the game doesn't look good to some people (like me). Just because some people don't like it doesn't mean they're fanboys.
This game doesn't impress me.

The gameplay looks only decent imo, but 4 player co-op sounds very fun and I have no Halo 3 to look forward to.

Are we talking the Multiplayer Beta Graphics of Halo 3 here? Coming from a person who was horribly unimpressed with the Beta graphics, to the point of bashing Halo fan boys, I am seriously impressed with Halo 3's Campaign graphics.
From the Jungle video it was hard to tell, but the Car scene definitely looked worse than Halo 3's campaign.

Did you miss the memo that Halo 3 will be 4 player co-op as well?
[QUOTE="bluebrad1974"]I'll wait for the superior 360 version beforeI make my final judgement. Strangely, those vids failed to impress me. -Renegade
there is no way the 360 will have the "superior" version when ps3 is the lead platform and it is being ported to 360.
The same thing was said about VF5 as well ;)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the 360 version is a port of the latest revision of the arcade code and not the PS3 version of the game.

That's suppose to look better than halo 3 ? what a crap.VACASCULIADAS
It's not bad in this thread yet, but type haze in the search bar and click on any topic. Most are 5+ pages of just blindly bashing the game for really no reason. I can't think of any reason to bash this game. Top noth graphics, great (some even call it innovative) gameplay, very compeling story, 4 player online/offline seamless drop in/out co-op, great multiplayer, made by Free Radical... People might call it generic, but you know what? That's not necessarily bad. Halo is considered generic, but it also one of the best FPS franchises ever. Gears of War was considered generic, and so far is the best game of this gaming generation.
I think this game has a great concept, and if the combat is decent then I will definitely be picking this up. I think its about time shooters ventured out of the ultra-safe realm of aliens vs. humans or allies vs. axis.Teufelhuhn
Like Far Cry? Or Battlefield 2?

Far Cry hardly had a story you would take seriously, and if you did it was ex-special forces guy vs. crazy mad scientist. Not exactly challenging material. And Battlefield 2 doesn't even have a story...

See, I don't really see anything innovative in this. The car drive made me feel like it was a Halo clone, and when it was in the Jungle it felt like Far Cry. The story seems to be that you're a soldier for a company, but of course some plot twist will occure that makes you question the meaning of being a soldier, to which you rebel and take down the very corperation you initially faught against. I could be completely wrong, though,
Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying the game sounds bad. I'm just saying it feels like a game that's trying to be a AAA title by mimicing what others have done; trying to sew together the pieces of other AAA successes. Now I'm not saying this is bad, but it seems to have the result that you see in the videos: Chaos. In the jungle scene there was so much blur, explosions, and people running around through the foliage that you could hardly tell who to shoot at. The car ride had random explosions out of nowhere that killed the other 3 guys in the car, and almost killed the main guy. That's why people are unimpressed.

I agree that the story is intriguing and has potential, buy I disagree that the gameplay is innovative, how? graphics: technichally I guess they're solid, but maybe just my sense of aesthetics, but seems very bland and not 'easy on the eye'. The AI and animations look sub-par. 4 player coop, great but only fun If the game is solid. Halo could be considered generic, but It defined the genre on consoles and does all the aforementioned aspects so very very well.[QUOTE="FrozenLiquid"][QUOTE="Teufelhuhn"]I think this game has a great concept, and if the combat is decent then I will definitely be picking this up.

Far Cry hardly had a story you would take seriously, and if you did it was ex-special forces guy vs. crazy mad scientist. Hardly challenging territory. And Battlefield 2 doesn't even have a story...
Well, when you said realm, I thought you meant setting. Not a fully fleshed out story. How about Freedom Fighters?
Don't you mean you'd like to see a story where the line between good and evil is blurred; where either one could be fighting for greater fight?
