Actually, people were concerned about HAZE when Free Radical kept releasing new images of the game that weren't all that positive. Even a few people said this game was shaping up to be "meh" even before the demo hit.

@ Windbane You're one of those skeptics, aren't you? Hang in there with Sony. They'll be fine.

It's really a shame. GoldenEye is my all time favorite game and now this is whats happened to Free Radical.

That's where most of the hype came from, not that it was PS3 exclusive (Although, it could have added to it), but the same guys responsible for Goldeneye and Timesplitters were making this game. 

Just read another review, (UGO) this time they don't have as much problem with the AI, contrasting Gamespot, all the reviews are really confusing me. I am just going to wait for game trailers before I make my final decision. The main consistent point is that the graphics are poor, and the gameplay is quite good, but the story sucks though it has an interesting premice

That's what I mean by proven developer. Timesplitters was a good series.

 The best FPS on PS2, and I am really looking forward to timesplitters 4

IGN is not the bottem. EuroGamer, GameSpy and G4 TV give it 4.0/10
