The video, a mock dating game between UK Fragdoll Kitt and a pair of devs fresh off Ubisoft's nectar-filled shooter, is a stern reminder that just because you can do something doesn't necessarily mean you should.

I used to like FR... But sorry, that game looks sorry... I hope for their sakes it stays exclusive. Because I wont buy it if it comes to the 360.
Another game hyped up by the sfd, another game way below standards... Well, ya'll can take that off the "Well we have-" list.
The sad thing is it would've sold on the 360 if it drop on that first...
But now...

I was semi-excited for Haze before the demo. After? Meh. I still haven't bought Smash Brothers, and MGS4 is coming soon. Not to mention Ninja Gaiden 2. With only so many banana dollars to spend on games (well, only so much that I can justify to myself), Haze doesn't stand a snowballs chance in hell.
Oh and this vid managed to take my already low impression of the Frag Dolls, and drop it even further. Not to mention my impression of Free Radical.

Yeah, I've heard that it's not as good as prior games in the series. I might gamefly it first, and then if I don't love it, I might buy the Metal Gear Box set instead (the one with all 3 MGS games, for 30 bucks).

This developer guy from Free Radical wants to be famous so bad it hurts. I mean the first video over a year ago was funny but after that every single one is more uninteresting garbage than the next.
Damn I am angry.

I couldn't watch it all. I'm up for interesting ways of promotion but this is silly. So if I play and understand haze, I can pick up women(z)?
PS: timesplitters 4(or is it 5?) kthx.

Well it seems most people here think the exact opposite.
My feeling for this video are well a mix of pain with well Um...how do you call this feeling were you feel deeply ashamed by other people actions? (In Spanish is Vergüenza Ajena)

Fuggly by celebrity standards (which she isn't, so she shouldn't be judged by), sure.
But for a girl off the street, she's not bad. She won't cause any traffic accidents, but she's certainly not below average.

Well I still might pick up the game at some point if the reviews keep looking favorable ... The game was nice looking in terms of models and the gameplay was fun but the level sucked in the demo ... I would love to play some driving or multiplayer death match ... I will probably give it a whirl after MGS 4
If people think it sucks then so be it ... I like Lair and Heavenly Sword which the Joystiq crowd seems to think were awful ... But I hated Halo 3 for multiplayer single player was OK ... Thats the beauty of it we can all buy and play what we like best

It was um different like when a Midget drops his pants and slaps an old lady with a fish except most parts were completely annoying.
Well it was entertaining but I rather have a gameplay video or an interview also that the multiplayer mode sounds completely broken.
“Okay Nectar can help the player to get cheap headshots, anticipate the enemy movement, show the enemy and bitch slap with the might of a thousand wife-beaters (Funny word) combined into one fist.
“But the rebels get sneak attacks!”
Oh yeah that sounds completely balanced *Rolls eyes,

It may or may not be... you certainly can't say at this point. The rebels do get more than you make it out to be. The ability to overdose the soldiers is huge... which you would know if you've played the demo. OD on nectar and your character goes crazy... you can't see shit and yoru character is nearly impossible to control.

I JUST played the demo for this game. Finally decided to download and try it. The thing about demos is that I usually enjoy the game a lot more than a demo. So, I'm still giving this game a shot beyond what I've played.
What I did play was good, a little tricky to master, but then again I only played for about 10 minutes (that's how long the demo was), and I'm used to FPSs on the 360. Comparing this to Resistance, the only other FPS worth noting on the PS3 right now, I say this game is faster and has a little bit more personality. Though, for some, faster isn't better. Halo is a great game, but was slower than this. Depends on your taste.
This is easily a rental for me. I reserve on saying its a must buy though. Multiplayer doesn't interest me so much as a good story.

I should state...what I meant was the only other "exclusive" FPS worth mentioning. Games such as Rainbow Six Vegas 2 are very good, but can be played on other systems.

The 'that's gay' at the end made me giggle. My favourite part was:
"Do you like eating?"
"I do!"
"I like eating. GOODBYE."
Rob Yescombe always makes me laugh. I hope we can get married some day.

Haze is just being used as a game to fill the delay gap of Timesplitters 4.
like Prologue is for GT5.
Saying that, its not perfect or original, but it could be fun to play depending on what you like in a game.
Saying that, its not like all the console don't have a bucket load of crap games to go with the good ones ¬_¬

It was the script writer who took it to new levels of face palm; the other two were fine within this already dumb idea. He is certainly not someone I would want as my lead writer... At the very least wit is certainly not his strength, is it?
"Hey baby, I'm glad you asked me that question".
The demo was really poor; while the gameplay and game-feel was nice, the level design was abysmal, stupidly short and had terribly writing, and acting.

I stopped watching this after about 60 seconds.
Who approves this crap? This doesn't raise my interest in this game at all! The sound quality was horrible too.
That screenwriter dude, Rob, scares the crap out of me as well. I saw him in a different Haze developer video on GT and he was carrying on like an angry drunken Brit in front of the camera.
