Five new Haze screens: Needs more companion cube ... photo

Courtesy of NeoGAF poster Blimblim who "Just got these from Ubisoft", we bring you a gallery of five new screens from the upcoming current PS3 exclusive Haze. Based on the pics, it's quite obvious that the game looks good, but after so many recent, stunning FPS titles, I'm thinking the game is going to need a bit more to set it apart.

I like the Nectar angle that essentially has you playing the role of a high-strung junkie with a gun, but can that really compete with a fist full of lightning or a gun that creates intra-dimensional portals? According to my sixteen year old neighbor, "all the cool kids are doing drugs", and really, how can you argue with that kind of logic? The old standby response of "If all the cool kids jumped off a bridge would you?" fell apart as soon as kids got over their irrational fear of bridges and suicide became chic.

In short, expect Haze to sell like heroin to Owen Wilson.

Im totally going to wait for a demo of this bad boy before i pass judgment on whether or not to purchase...

Oh and fuck Owen Wilson and his stupid brother. Everytime i see them they got that shit-eating smugness. Why are they in good movies though? Must be awesome at giving up the head methinks.

"No Owen, you're a movie star despite that nose, not because of it"

Thats enough to push anyone over the edge.

ROFL

His nose just kept ingesting the heroin directly, the suicide attempt was him trying to bargain/threaten his nose, seeing as its probably sentient. Next time Wilson take Master Chiefs advice and 'Finish the Fight'.

[owen]You must work ooooout[/wilson]

Haze should do well, if only because... what else in the same genre is there to buy when it comes out?

Meh, I already have Halo. Don't think this will bring anything new.

looks good.... it's from free radical so will be fun as shit to play... and if teh 4 player coop runs smooth, unlike halo 3, that would be nice too.

I'll pick it up on the 360 whenever that one decides to come out.
It looks really good.

The quote in the pic says it all. Although the guy on Haze's Mongoose rides butt to butt rather than Brokeback.

Looks better than I thought. I'd consider buying it if there wasn't such a huge backlog of games I need (want) to play.
Curse you student budget!!!

LOL @ the picture caption. People should just stop mounting turrets in the back of all-terrain military vehicles, anymore. Halo's ruined it for all.

Why are people mocking a person almost killing himself? That's pretty sick and twisted...

As for Haze, it looks like a solid AA game, nothing more or less.
