I was excited for haze at first. I had it pre-ordered and then cancelled it after the january delay. The video showing the jungle was beautiful and I guess I was expecting something close to the CGI scene where one of the hand jumps across a building but later on the more vids I saw the more bleh it looked. The mantel uniformed soldiers model looked kind of ps2ish to me and I started feeling down about the game. The demo was it's last chance to sway me to buy it at launch or for $60. Unfortunately i'm kind of bleh about the demo. I'll still pick it up for $40 or less though. I'm hoping i'm in the minority and that this game will do very well.
Also I agree that people seem to think these days that every game has to be innovative or like his friend says revolutionary. If that happens great but I just buy games I think i'm going to like and have fun with it. If you're looking for goodness in every game your sure to find something but greatness is rare. You can't expect every game to be a GOW or every movie to be a Gladiator. Chronotriggers friend clearly has a bias so I wouldn't put much stock in his opinion on this game.
