Well then I guess Uncharted was "generic" too, because all it was was a mix of Tomb Raider and Indiana Jones, right?
Now that you bring it up, yeah, that was my biggest complaint about Uncharted (other than the stupid zombie nazis). It was a mix of many other games and cinema. On the other hand, it was pretty well executed and a fun game.

But I don't see how that applies to Haze. You act as if everyone was thrilled at the idea of it six months ago when that just isn't the case. There were plenty of "mehs" going around after the initial screenshots released. I was one of those people going "meh". I might rent the game but unless people whose opinion I respect rave about the game, I won't be buying it. |
It applies to Haze if what twesterm says is true, and it's just taking what other games have done, and adds nothing new. Now, why can't this game be "well executed and fun" |
your problem is that you're taking things way to literally and being overly defensive.
A game can do what other games have done and still be good. The problem with Haze is that it in no way makes me think that any of the things it takes that has been done 100 times before is any good.
