Zero Punctuation: Haze

[The Rogue Wolf]

What a shame, what a shame... and to think I'd been so looking forward to Haze when that first trailer came out- how long ago? May 2006? More than two years ago. I lost track of it after that, and just sort of shook my head and sighed when I heard what an underachievement it had turned out to be. Yahtzee's review cements it- no sense in even looking for it in the bargain bin.

Also, ha-ha at the choice of opening music. And we need to knock some heads together to get the Aussies some reasonable prices on games. Gamers of the world unite! ...after you're done arguing about which is the best console or whether the Master Chief could beat Gordon Freeman.

That review was far too lenient. No one should play Haze. Anyone.

I appreciate Yahtzee's reviews for there humor and freshness despite if he doesn't go after a game with relentless bear balls or goes after parts of the game that others find absolutely intolerable. The only time I watch a review and feel a bit disappointed is when I hear him re-use old stuff that wasn't some of his best, although "jagged-rock junction" is a classic.
Also it's free to watch his stuff.

Well, that re-affirms the fact that I'm not getting a PS3 anytime soon for the GAMES.

What I think is Ironic is that it's supposed to be a PS3 exclusive, and then it turns out it looks and plays like a bad 360 game.

Also, keep that PS3 has no games crap out of here.

I don't really see this as a Halo rip off.

Mainly because I like this.

This is the first time I've posted about Zero Punctuation even though I'm quite a fan. Just wanted to let it be known that I think you guys are brilliant. Keep 'em coming!!!!

Not the funniest of reviews, but a great job nonetheless.
I think it would've been too obvious to make a reference to "Purple Haze."

 

[Sagecat]

Thank you. Yet another game I'll stay away from like a disease.

PS: Loved the crack about current-gen drab graphics. Blah.

 

[MercFox1]

Given the recent reviews massacre, I'm surprised Yahtzee was relatively amiable with this one. Never thought I'd see the day where I'd wish to see more criticism heaped on a game by ZP...

Hehehehehehe, hahahahahahaha.... [Sigh] ...... Hahahahahahhahaaaaaa.....

Stunning. Funny, informative, funny again & right on the money.

Love the cake comment, I've often thought the same thing (Apart from he stripper part, but it's a good point).

FuZion.

 

[Enskie]

NUMBER 1!!!! ...yay?

Gonna be ban... Unless the question mark will save your ***.

Apparently the question mark is not all holy, judging by this example at least...hmm, I must ponder this. Also, yeah, the "got high" song is bloody awesome.

 

[Platos]

2D cutout forests, hahahaha.

 

[Jerakal]

Please don't rip age of conan a new one yet, wait a month so it can get a bit more of it's shit together.

 

[ElArabDeMagnifico]

WHY TF review MSG anyway? Theres 2 kinds of people: Those who like the game and those who think a small payload nuke would have solved all metal gear related problems very efficiently.

We want him to make jokes about it. Like "Why do I have to look at Solid Snakes ass?" - but then we'll laugh "BECAUSE IT'S TRUE!!!"

 

[MattClassic]

The word superfluous comes to mind after watching this review. Why bother reviewing yet another sub-par FPS after giving Turok and Jericho such thorough beatings? Still pretty funny though.

 

[SatansBestBuddy]

Righto, what's up with the ads at the end?

We're already on your website, watching your vids, why do we need to be reminded that there are other vids on this website?

I was skeptical of this game since day 1 and as time went on I grew less and less interested so I trusted my instincts and decided to avoid it. Boy was I glad(and amused) when every reviewer on the face of the planet chose to rape its drug riddled corpse. No one absolutely no one worth crediting likes this game, what a pos. After all those delays you'd think they would have made a decent game, guess the devs were all off getting high or pissed or both lol.

My old roommate back at school had said to me that this game was going to be the Halo for the PS3...and after i stopped laughing I realized he could be right. The story and game play could be just as annoying and droll as Halo.

Turns out It's far worse.
