Now now Metacritic has a different tune. http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/ps3/haze 55 http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/xbox360/toohuman 68 |

Let's not go that far... I thought it was a tad below average, after playing it for an hour at a friends. Combat just isn't satisfying. |

It's not THAT bad. I think it's in a rather similar situation to Fable. If you compare it to all the hype, yeah, it's shit. If you don't set your expectations too high, and if you like games like Diablo, it's actually pretty fun. |

And as you can see, Gamer.nl, Gamespot and Gamedaily all said it was worse than Haze. User was suspended for: Does New Korean Game Rip Off Team Fortress 2?. (7 days) |

Yes and IGN gave Too Human a 78 and Haze a 45. And Xplay gave Too Human a 80 and Haze a 40. Even 1up that gave Too human a 42 gave Haze a 33. And the average is higher for Too Human |
Muckraker Posts: 341 Joined: 16 Mar 2008 | Worse than Haze? Naw... Haze was the worst shooter I've ever had the misfortune to play. At least I had fun with Too Human. For a little bit. Sort of... |

I didn't say it was, just that in some reviewers opinions it was worse than Haze. And, if it were as brilliant as people keep claiming, there would have been no cases where that could have been possible. User was suspended for: Does New Korean Game Rip Off Team Fortress 2?. (7 days) |

The end is nye! |

Bull. No matter how brilliant a game is there will be some discreprency in it's level of awesomeness. |

I realise that. However, I was just pointing out that some feel it had serious problems, and was more flawed than even Haze. User was suspended for: Does New Korean Game Rip Off Team Fortress 2?. (7 days) |

And most thought otherwise. |

yes, very good. Thats what I was saying. User was suspended for: Does New Korean Game Rip Off Team Fortress 2?. (7 days) |

So your point is? Some reviews think Haze is better than Too Human most do not? I don't get it. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3179 Joined: 16 May 2008 | I thought GTA 3 was utter garbage stop the presses. |
King of the Yetis Posts: 2530 Joined: 15 Jul 2008 | Yeah I don't know what most people think but this 360 exclusive was FAR WORSE than that PS3 exclusive. You all know what that means. |

My actual point, if you'd care to stop stereotyping me as a one note character, is that this game is quite polarizing - some love it, some like it, some hate it, some despise it. Looking for reccomendations on it is thus a moot, as they are no better than random chance. Now, if you want some practical advice, buy it from a place that allows no-questions-asked returns, and keep the receipt safe in case you hate it.

Beat Writer Posts: 141 Joined: 26 Aug 2008 | IGN have a habit of giving games excessively large scores. GTA4 is perfect? Hmm...... This is a point actually, since when have you seen a game get less than 60%? It nearly never happens. If a game is dreadful (as most agree haze is) it should be 1-3 surely? |
SUSPENDED Posts: 12958 Joined: 30 Jan 2008 |
Itr wasn't as bad as that. What it actually was was below average - a 5-6, the score everyone agreed on. User was suspended for: Does New Korean Game Rip Off Team Fortress 2?. (7 days) |
Press Junketeer Posts: 411 Joined: 8 Jun 2008 | There's also a free demo of the game on Xbox live. Download it, try it, if you like it, buy it. If not, save for Mercs 2. It's gonna be AWESOME!!! |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2108 Joined: 14 Nov 2007 | Wait, how the fuck did Haze get dragged into this?!? I know there wasn't much to the thread to begin with, but can we not at least make sure that the not much in question is focused on Too Human? |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3235 Joined: 8 May 2008 |
I sence a tad of sarcasm. |

Either that, or there's Trollery brewing. |

I was holding Haze up as an example to prove my point, and people assumed the worst about my intentions. They do that a lot, and no matter how many times they're wrong, people refuse to give me the benefit of the doubt. User was suspended for: Does New Korean Game Rip Off Team Fortress 2?. (7 days) |

You brought Haze into the thread out of nowere, it's not a similar type of game, it's not had a similar critical reception, you just seemed to be unable to contribute to the thread without mentioning a PS3 title. And you wonder why people think you're a fanboy? |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3179 Joined: 16 May 2008 | I can't gather what he's a fanboy of though. a fanboy of PS3 because Haze was alledgedly slightly less horrible then Too Human? that doesn't make much sense |
