It is definately not exclusive. @ http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?start=50&id=2212 "Free Radical Design, the team responsible for Haze, and known for their work on TimeSplitters, settled the rumor today when asked about it. The developer said that production of Haze for the PC and XBox 360 has been underway all along, and that the title was never exclusive to the PS3."

Seriously, read the threads.  http://www.gamespot.com/news/6171219.html?action=convert&om_clk=latestnews&tag=latestnews;title;0

Anyway, this is great news for the PS3 and explains why PSM had this game as their cover feature and compared it to Halflife and Halo.  Yes, they all start with "H."

It's a timed exclusive. Okay? Can we stop arguing about this? It's all over the internet now. Timed. Exclusive. The end!

Yeah, it says "lead console" which means it is not cancelled for 360 and PC.  But being the lead console is huge considering the quality of this game and the fact that the first release usually sells more.  Oblivion didn't sell as well for the PS3 and I doubt Warfighter 2 or Rainbow six will either.  Haze should.  We'll see.  I'm not the biggest fan of FPS on consoles but after Resistance I'm enjoying them at least.  The Orange Box should be very exciting as well.

Also, Resident Evil 4 barely outsold the GC version when it was ported to the PS2. I'd guess that if that game had originally been a PS2 game, it would have been up there with the other top titles of its generation (6 Million+? 7?). Just another example. It's an especially important time frame because it happens to encompass Christmas.

That's a good example. Combined on the PS2 and GC it sold 3.52 million, about the same as RE3 on the PS1. Seeing as how it's considered the best RE game, I expect it would have sold more if it was just a PS2 game. Re1 and RE2 sold more than 5 million each on the PS1.

Oh, and URNotE, I thought you were crazy at first but you presented some descent evidence that gave me hope.  Great job predicting this before any official announcements.

Let me get this straight; You're saying RE4 would have sold more if it was just a PS2 title?

Haze to become PS3 exclusive again..

Free Radical released a pre-E3 footage of Haze, during the video there was no mention of a Xbox 360 version and the last seconds of the video show messages of a possible PS3 exclusivity and a big announcement in this E3.

At Haze website there is no Xbox logo, only PS3.  It was taken off

We will know whether this is true or not next week at E3
