Game journalist calls Haze demo a "mess"
CANOE -- WHAM Gaming - PS3: 'Haze' demo a mess
Summary:
Quote:
|
"Asininely left-wing, derivative dystopian storyline aside, trailer footage showed Haze as the PS3’s answer to Halo – offering similar style combat and multiplayer, but with a trippy twist. Unfortunately, the demo I played was a complete mess."

"The game waited until I was already knee-deep in combat to stop gameplay and show a tutorial on the many uses of NECTAR. This is akin to teaching an aspiring boxer how to punch only after the opening bell."

"Truth be told though, the NECTAR didn’t seem to do much but create colour streaks across the screen. Enemies were easy to dispatch and the whole experience wasn’t very satisfying."

"Since Haze attempts to give us a horrifying vision of the future, I’ve decided to render my verdict with the help of my trusty magic eight ball. Verdict: Outlook not so good"
