Haze does not play like a PS3 exclusive, and that can only be bad!
For a game that received lots of hype before it's release, people would have expected this game to be well worth the wait, but sadly it was a letdown. I waited a good year for this game, after it's release kept being pushed back. But why on earth didn't the developer's make some improvements? I would have hated to see what it would have turned out like if it didn't get pushed back for a few months!
In my opinion I quite liked the gameplay that it offered. Unfortunately that was also held down with glitches, bugs and poor AI. The most impressive part of the game is over very quickly, and that is the part where you use nectar - A performance enhancing drug that increases your strength, health and shows enemies in a gold glow. However, a couple of hours into the game and that is over, as you discover your true self in the raging war between 2 sides eager for power over the other.
The story is boring and the voice acting is rubbish. The guns are fun to shoot and there is varied locations. That is what Haze is like, switching backwards and forwards from totally awful moments, to moments that are rather exciting and good.
Also, for a PS3 exclusive it has to be the worst out so far. Te graphics are a real letdown and the bugs stand out like a sore thumb. Play the demo if you're interested, because there isn't much point buying if you don't have a clue what to expect.
Overall I thought that Haze was just about a good game, if you an forget that it is only available on the PS3 system.
