Ubisoft really said this is supposed to have anything on Halo? I'll look forward to launch day then, either they pull it off and it will be something we can all admire, or they don't and we'll all get a laugh (more likely IMO).
If they were really confident they stood any chance against Halo, they wouldn't have cancelled the Xbox 360 version of Haze, don't you guys think?

"Speaking to Edge, Rob Yescombe, scriptwriter for Free Radical's upcoming shooter Haze, has some choice words about the king of console shooters. According to Yescombe, new-gen games are about more mature, compelling content: "Halo is brilliant, you're a teenager - the next-gen is about becoming more mature ... in Haze you become an adult." Yescombe adds that games should take a page from world events as inspiration, saying, "It's about what's happening in the world today - it's ludicrous, and how can you make something that doesn't reflect that? Well, you could bury your head in the sand and make Halo 3, but the fact of the matter is there are more important things at stake." Haze, it seems, is a satirical work aimed at modern warfare, though Yescombe admits that some may not see the satire."
A shooter game which makes people think? Good luck with that!
