 Huge Disappointment June 30, 2008
This game was a huge letdown. Graphics, game play, everything was very disappointing. I had so much hope for this game. I wouldn't even recommend renting it.
Haze (PS3) June 26, 2008
If you're looking for an average to above average first person shooter then this fits the bill. It's not the best out there but what it does it does very competently.
Advantages are that there is split-screen co-op an upto 4 player co-op online. You can also have split-screen in online games unless it's a ranked game. Graphics are decent. Plot is OK. Gameplay mechanics are very solid.
The only real drawback to this game seems to be the hype. It was hyped as the next COD4/Halo etc ... and it turned out to be only a decent game.
 Halo killer? More like on par with Turok. (disappointing) June 25, 2008
All show and no go. Hype, hype and more hype. The story is too short, the games message too clumsy and shallow, driving vehicles is kludgy and annoying. Oh yeah and you can finish the game in a strong evening of play. Maybe its supposed to be another generic multi- player game instead of actually having a decent story, maybe my expectations were too high. Anyway dont waste your money, wait until it starts showing up in the cheap bins. If you want multi-player get Unreal 3.
Be Patient and It's Fun June 21, 2008

My first experience of Haze was this: I open the amazon package and pop the game into my ps3. I start up an online match, just to see what it was like before I actually learned how to play. My character spawns right outside of a big building. I see a rocket launcher and I walk forward to go and pick it up. About halfway there to the rockets, the game crashes and I have to shut off my ps3.
By anyone's standards, this is not a good start.
Here are the pros and cons of Haze, now that I am a seasoned player who has beaten the campaign and participated in many online matches:
Pros:
-The variety of weapons gives you a nice selection on how to kill your opponents, whether you want to burn them, knife them, grenade them, or just plain shoot the hell out of the them with a minigun.
-Multiplayer matches always have good connection
-4 player co-op campaign is really fun no matter how many times you've played that level or if its the same people every time
-Shooting your teammates in the back causes them to overdose, and you won't know what an overdose is until you buy the game, but pretty much it's one of the funniest things in any game, unless a teammate does it to you...then it sucks
-Your character looks funny when he jumps.
Cons:
-The game crashes an average of once a day (I only play about an hour a day, so this is a lot)
-My online stats from the day before get deleted about every other time i start up the game. I once got 26 kills without dying and I was so proud of it, until the next day when it didn't save it on the online stats page.
-Your teammates think it's funny to shoot you in the back, so always choose the "rebels" team.
-The rebels suck, so choose the "troopers" team.
-There are only two teams.
-6 multiplayer maps can only keep you interested for so long
-In almost every campaign level, going through it the first time, I got stuck and couldn't find a way through to the next part of the level.
-Cut scenes are way too long and you can't skip them. I once went to the bathroom, got a snack to eat, and came back to find that the cut scene still was not over
Despite the number of cons vs. pros, Haze is a fun game. You just have to be patient. Four player co-op is the most redeeming part of Haze, because with four friends running around instead of one, you a 4x greater chance of find the way to proceed to the next area. I have fun playing this game, and I don't care what anyone rates this game or what anyone tells me, I am going to keep playing this game.
 good but not amazing June 21, 2008
I guess I was expecting a far cry type game that would be free roam style go were you want do what you want, this game is not that, there is like 2 paths you can choose from in the whole game! oh well, still a pretty fun shooter, big battles, lots of action, the vehicles aren't done very good, but good enough, your team mates actually seam smart! they get ion jeeps with you and get your back.
