The Immortals of Terra: A Perry Rhodan Adventure anyone know what this is

@BoogieManZero
Man I feel bad for Free Radical. I am an exclusive 360 owner but I didn't even want Haze to fail.... Hopefully they don't take it too hard, learn from their mistakes and put out another amazing TimeSplitters game in the near future.

Dude, I would Kill for a TimeSplitters 3 on the Wii (yes the Wii, play Metroid Prime 3 and you'll understand)... I hope to hell they go and do that next....

Under 50k really?
Wow that really is hard for Nintendo, I guess releasing a fitness game just as summer is starting isn't so smart huh? *sound of a forehead being slapped echoing in the distance*

Trying to invoke initial launch shortages can control the damage sometimes, but geez, that's ordinary to say the least.

Penny Arcade looks like fun, Haze i didn't care much for the demo, felt like Ubisoft did it and messed with a successful team. But after TimeSplitters I'll give 'em a chance and try it SP and online for the developpers, the story was kinda cool at least with the beserking teammates when they get shot in the Nectar tank LOL.

wii fit opening week in the US - under 50k sold.

Wii SUCKSSSKSKSKSKS 'nuff said its graphics are horrible and the games have quite possibly no though into them. i mean really how long does it take to think of a wii fit or some other sucky thing like that

Nintendo sucks and so does wii fit.

I keep getting hyped up for ps3 games but they keep dissapointing. Now I'm even starting to think MGS4 and Killzone 2 will dissapoint too. Right now I'm having alot more fun with my xbox. Yes I own both systems

Penny - Arcade is finally out. this is the game of the week right here.

and Haze looks to be a very good game. I won't call it the "halo killer" but is will be a very fun FPS.

Sooooo tired of people talking about Halo. Those days are long gone people!!! This is the now, a time to walk with grape-skinned frogs and sing to the sun. Ra will see that soon, yogurt hills have no business in heaven!!!! Be gone foul music, lest my logo burn a hat box!!!

Im so getting "Johnny Hammer vs The Flower-Eating Garden Babies" when it comes out. Those stupid babys aint gonna ruin my garden!!!

HAHAHHAHAA ....o wow. For people/Sony fan boys that tried to say this was going to knock down halo...Pfffft. I bought it and was looking forward to a great game...only to get disappointed. It was ok..."Could" have been a lot better....no to go trade it in.

@ShadoweaverCode

Haze = 6.0., not 7.5-8.5.

Cant wait for lost planet.

Sry dude, but ur wrong too, its the 21st... cough...cough

Actually Haze comes out on the 22 in america. Man haze looks awesome i want it now!

Hahaha. GS is conducting it's own, "informal" study on the benefits of Wii fit? Is this happening between soda breaks while writing reviews? Why don't you guys leave scientific health studies to health professionals? I'm sure some sports science student will do the exact same thing, but with a better experimental setup and sound statistics vs. a watered-down "This editor felt lighter after a week on the balance board. This editor didn't."

Looking forward to Age of Conan if the review is good. Also started checking out Penny Arcade, just bought a point card for that (which will be 1,600 MS points ($20)). Tried to pre-order Wii Fit too late and couldn't, but the reviews have been average at best so far.

We get that Penny Arcade crap instead of Bionic Commando Rearmed this week!? Great.

Haze I'm not too sure about, but UEFA EURO 2008 I'll give a go at in a couple of weeks, and my friends will be suprised about Lost Planet Colonies. Seems like a decent week all in all.

Halo wasn't bad at all, the problem is that there was too much expected of it. The HAZE demo say's it all anyway, IGN's review seemed right on as far as I could tell from the demo.

Well, halo was pretty bad, but that got hyped up the ass now didn't it

pause422 - I wouldn't count Gamespot's review as being credible after the Jeff Gerstmann incident. Plus you see all the Haze advertisements on the site right? Yep, just like the Gerstmann incident, I bet GS gives it a 7.5-8.5 because they were paid to do so.

Hehe haze as much as i like the ps3 i couldnt belive the fanboys were hyping it up like the second coming. Always seemed mediocre tbh

Jeff Hayes being a moron adds to the problem even more,but for the most part you can't take reviews so seriously until you get your hands on the game,or you see like 5-10 sites out with horrid reviews of it first. IGN anyway really doesn't hold up that well,they have so many reviewers that shouldn't be doing it because they're just complete morons,hell when you go to their site half the time you wouldn't know its supposed to be a gaming site,headlines are always about movies or tv series getting canceled,or differnt women they find attractive. Best advice is wait until 1up comes out with a review,then compare..and maybe gamespot,and definately Giantbomb if they end up getting their hands on it(although I doubt it because Ryan can't think of haze without seeing Korn and it scares him.)

Wow that IGN review was harsh. I'll tell you this though, what I saw of the game it looked pretty good to me. I think IGN unfairly rated this game. I don't even own a PS3 but from what I saw Haze looked like a solid shooter.

I'm sorry but I can't read these reviewer scores anymore and take them with any sort of merit. I'm sure Haze is nothing to write home about but a 4.5 from IGN?! The game isn't broken, it just wasn't anything special so why give it such a low score? Yet, GTA IV gets a 10/10 and is noted that it isn't perfect. Amazing what money can buy.

Man I feel bad for Free Radical. I am an exclusive 360 owner but I didn't even want Haze to fail. Free Radical is one of my favorite developers and when numbers like that come out I could only imagine what they are going through. Hopefully they don't take it too hard, learn from their mistakes and put out another amazing TimeSplitters game in the near future.

Haze is not out yet in Canada, but I can't wait to get my hands on it, despite the harsh reviews. It's a game I've been waiting for since it was announced.

LOL I just realized a paradox in my writing saying it's best to play the game first, then it's best to read and compare each review to other reviews. I meant the latter more than anything, but of course both go hand in hand. in determining if you should get the game. The beauty of renting.

9.9, my mistake

@ShadoweaverCode

IGN also gave a 10/10 to Jade Empire of all games. There have been really good games that have gotten bad reviews just out of spite, and vice-versa. But the best thing to do is to play the game first. It's really hard to trust review scores these days, but the best thing to do is to read them first and not just look at the review score. Read them with an open mind and then compare them to other reviews while of course reading them.

swyg - Of course OoT deserves a 40/40, every game review site out there has a near perfect review of the game, but that doesn't mean that 10 years later they are all going to be great at doing reviews. You picked about the easiest review in the history of mankind to base a site's credibility on. C'mon man, you gotta dig deeper if you want to know the truth~!

I just got Haze, and I am very disappointed, don't get me wrong, it isn't a horrible game, it just didn't live up to my expectations. The only fun I had was co-op.

::Crosses fingers for MGS4, and Killzone 2::

I hope Penny Arcade turns out well, I've really been looking forward to it. Wii Fit interests me too, and it'll be nice to see if it actually has any health benefits, even if its just a little (Something is better than nothing).

Well, only three reviews so far on Metacritic for Haze... but, yeah... it don't look so good.

Gamer's Hell - 65
The Onion (AV Club) - 58
IGN - 45

That's too bad. I was hoping it would be a better game. I wanted to play it. I still might play it, but it'll be a rental and not a purchase.

The FPS genre has been so played out that any new game has got to bring something new and fresh to it or it's gonna receive lukewarm or poor reviews...

I love how they forgot to mention that the Penny Arcade game costs a whopping $20. Twenty bucks for a lousy XBLA arcade. What a joke. At least the Wii's crappy downloadable games are reasonably priced.

Wow ! That Famitsu review doesn't even make sense but hey, thats what the Japanese like, things that make no sense. IGN is pretty much spot on in reviews, i'll trust that.

A 34/40 that is

@ShadoweaverCode

So you don't believe OoT deserves a 40/40? Ok. They're a Japanese site that gave the same score to TOB.

swyg - I'll be sure to never believe any of their reviews again, thanks for the info.

Famitsu gave haze a 34/40

Everyone knew Haze was going to suck except the Sony fanboys, they hyped it up like it was going to be this huge killer app.

But I might have to pick up Lost Planet: Colonies, the first one was pretty good.

Ninja Gaiden II can't come soon enough !

Not a single worthwhile game to buy or rent this week. An entire list of crap everyday except today (May 20) which has Conan for PC. The rest of the games I wouldn't even bother with.

HAZE just received a 4.5 out of 10 on IGN. I guess we have to wait for the next big PS3 hype machine.....again.

I do feel bad for some of you, that Ubisoft actually tricked you into pre-ordering Haze: http://ps3.ign.com/articles/875/875229p1.html

Sorry, 4.5/10 is no rival of any of the great FPS on the 360. What a waste of an exclusive title. Its like Sony paid them for the exclusive and didn't care how bad or good it came out afterwards. As long as MS didn't have it, I think thats all Sony cared about...sad, they wasted a lot of money and are going to have a lot of pissed off people who will quickly learn, they just threw 60 bucks down the toilet and should have just kept playing CoD4 on their PS3, about the only good FPS that system has.

Grabbing Singstar and Haze for sure. Definitely downloading Penny Arcade Adventures.

May get Wii Fit - we'll see.

haha wii fit go do some push ups and play some age of conan baby

Ouch! Haze was supposed to be a killer app. I wonder if other reviewers will be as harsh.
