NZGamer writes: "Sitting down to play a brand new game isn't as instantaneous as it once was. Every virgin PS3 game needs to undergo a series of updates, reboots and installs before you can even start playing these days. However, after a cup of coffee and several laps around the backyard, Haze was loaded and able to be played.
Haze is the latest in the futuristic first-person shooter genre and is set in a war-torn world of 2048. With organisations like the UN and NATO a thing of the past, private military companies like Mantel Global Industries have taken the role of peace-keepers. All with profit in mind, naturally. It turns out that Mantel Global Industries are the leading force in world-wide peace enforcement and this is mainly thanks to a special biologically engineered substance known as Nectar. When human soldiers inject this chemical into their bodies they gain heightened senses and improved physical performance, making them almost super-human in many respects. Not to mention they wear highlight-yellow and jet black suits that make you look like a human wasp thing running around. Totally awesome, although I have to admit they're not very well thought-out in the camouflage department."
Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "When shopping for new video games you can often trust the name publisher or developer on the box to be an indication of the quality of the game. Names like Nintendo, Square Enix, Sony Interactive Entertainment, Capcom, Xbox Game Studios and Sega are world famous because they helped shape the industry by releasing some of the most defining video games of all time. Though sometimes even these great gaming houses stumble and put out a stinker."
Splatterhouse remake . Loved the og’s at the arcade growing up . Hell the best thing about the remake was the og,s were included . And left alive by Square . That game had so much potential , but the gameplay was worse horrendous .
once Great studios getting destroyed is actually common. happened with ND and Last of Us2, Bioware and Mass Effect Andromeda/Anthem, Bungle and Destiny .
I'm pretty much certain that any Sonic game that comes out will be terrible, I've not enjoyed one since the original side-scrolling days of the MegaDrive.
For this Topic it says Good Studios that make bad games. Sonic Team hasn't been good in years.
Guns, drugs, and unnecessary war. Fun for the whole family.
Bullsh**.
Its closer to an 8.
And im gonna post this in every haze review that comes up.
More people need to play this game.
It's a good-enough anti-establishment story, and in no way is it a poor shooter.
8 sounds fair, not anything below a 7.
Like I've said before, you only deserve to rate a game if you're going to do so without preconceived notions, ideas, or expectations.
I see all these damned reviews saying "it didn't live up to the hype", well quite frankly it's your fault if you're gullible enough to buy into something as silly as hype.
Forming your own opinions is a valuable skill to have in the gaming industry, and most of the time, it allows you to have better experiences.
If you ever want to experience a game's potential as it was meant to be, then go out and play it and absorb it in your own way, without any sort of expectations or notions. Trust me, it'll do wonders for your gaming.
