The Haze trailer has got to be one of the corniest things I've ever witnessed...

I wondered why they paid for it when they the devs probably would have delayed it for the 360 a few weeks before launch anyway.

These live action mixed with realtime footage trailers are quite peculiar considering what one of the FRD guys once said about Black. I understand that FRD is not in charge of marketing and therefore not in charge of the trailers, but it's still kind of funny.

Hey retards, guess what?

Soldiers shave their heads. Stop acting like its some sort of cliche when there are bald soldiers in military themed games. It's reality.

Eventually video games will not be able to rely on novelty or graphical upgrades to garner attention. Instead, each title will be judged by the quality of the experience. As any book reader or movie goer will tell you, a great narrative can go a long way towards creating a great experience.

Jesus Christ, some bald space marine walking around, looking tough, and talking about how tough he is, and then waxing poetic about how the company he worked for was evil, and how he "changed sides." GOOD GOD.

My friends and I were watching this on G4 and laughing our asses off at this mawkish garbage. I bet the developers think they're real hot shit because their supercool, edgy game has real life parallels to the Iraq War. Way to go, dudes!

Remind me: Why does anyone care about this game?

We care because the game looks interesting. Did you vote for George Bush?

I'll have you know, I'm making a game about space marines forced to occupy a seemingly hostile foreign planet where fossil fuels are abundant, but after awhile in the "shit," these hardened, grizzled space veterans soon learn that the imperialistic empire they work for is evil. One by one, they soon begin to question their own morals and ethics, leading to a stunning revolt and subsequent revolution.

The game is called No Blood for Oil 2412. And, mckmas8808...IT WILL MAKE YOU CRY.

It shows no creativity whatsoever. Who cares about reality, these are videogames... developers have a chance to let their imaginations go wild, yet they all seem to base their characters around burly bald men with attitude.

Basing the character art around our reality makes no sense when the world which the game is set is completely fictional. Its pure lazyness.

:lol

I know why YOU care and I think everybody else does.

Don't you even have the balls to criticise one PS3 game?

You are starting to be worse than Speevy.
 
The trailer made me cringe as it was obviously Ubisoft's marketing team's attempt to make HAZE stand out against UT3 and Killzone. Which, I have to say. worked, but not for the reason they hoped.

I seriously doubt that Sony paid a single penny for this exclusive. It seems to me that Ubisoft were worried about this game going head to head with all the other big FPS this year and decided that to give it a better chance of breaking out they would give it an exclusive timed window on PS3.

Personally I hope it works, because I was sure that HAZE would have gotten steamrollered by all the other big FPS released this Winter.

Free Radical games are always worth a look. They may not be the prettiest girl at the dance, but they sure are the best to.....er.... play?

When I switch from red to blue team in Halo, I'll say "I switched sides!"
 
I didn't care about Haze till I saw the trailer at E3, thought it was cool and now I'll be picking it up. Too bad the trailer isn't on the PSN :(.
 
I think the haze guy is meant to be generic. Seeing as how it's supposed to be a statement on video game violence or whatever.
