    Unhappy Haze


    Has anyone else bought Haze over the past week? I was really looking forward to it, especially with Free Radicals pedigree (Timesplitters 2 is still my favourite shooter of all time), but I was massively dissapointed with Haze.
    It just didnt feel like a next-gen game, what with sub par graphics, lazy level design, and poor AI. Its a real shame, cause the premise sounded really awesome.

    I was thinking of picking it up, and played it in my little cousin's house last week. Thank god I didn't buy it. The game stinks. I mean......STINKS! I didn't say anything to my cousin because I didn't want to hurt his feelings or anything, but we were playing multiplayer and after a while I was bored to death. Nothing fun or exciting about Haze at all.

    Bashing another console's game in a totally unrelated thread. For a second I thought I was in the smackdown.

    It appears to be a waste of time and money. I don't think I would buy this game for anything more than $10. It's too bad, because I had hopes for this one.
    Did the primary buffer panel just fall off my gorram ship for no apparent reason?!

    I am not going to get this game but wanted to say from the demo, I think the graphics look good. How good do people want them? Does other levels look bad?

    Haze is a great game! I'm almost through it and enjoyed every minute! Maybe not the best looking game but overall a very good game.

    It looks as good as Rainbow Six Vegas 2

    I seriously have to disagree with that. Not even close.

    By how far of a margin then?

    I don't believe it's that far off.

    haze isnt bad looking, there are alot of clipping... but the main point is the gameplay imo didn't live up to what alot of game previewers were hyping last year.

    The environments look cheap and the level design is amateurish. The character models look fine though.
