79Games Master UK After a steady diet of brilliant alternatives, Haze's innovations and compelling story aren't enough. [July 2008, p.80] 71PSM3 Magazine UK So Haze, as a PS3 exclusive, is far from a reason to own a PS3.
70GamePro Also lacking is the game's graphics, which are a huge letdown. Despite its tight story and well-balanced action, the killer buzz Haze cultivates all but dies when it comes to the visuals thanks to janky animations, blurry textures, and downright pitiful special effects-it really is fitting that the game is called Haze.
70GameDaily It doesn't do anything vastly different from its competitors, but it doesn't need to. Just pop it into your PS3, relax and start shooting.
70Total Video Games There's no avoiding the fact that HAZE is a huge disappointment.
68Gamers' Temple At best, Haze is a solid, but flawed game that most people would enjoy to the fullest during a rental, rather than an all out sixty-dollar purchase.
67Da Gameboyz In my opinion Haze can be considered a pretty good FPS game in terms of its basic gameplay concepts, however not everything came together in the end.
67AtomicGamer As is, it's an average entry that had potential, but due to poorly implemented mechanics and sub-par visuals, will likely be forgotten soon after Metal Gear Solid 4 arrives.
65Extreme Gamer Haze is the type of shooter that will be taken differently from every player. Some will love running around half blitzed on an adrenaline boosting Nectar, and others will find the entire experience a little shallow and contrived.
65Kombo Haze has the makings of a great game, but due to various issues the formula seems to have gone askew.
65IGN UK For all its promise to deliver a thoughtful take on the murkier aspects of war combined with Free Radical's proven prestige with first person shooters, ultimately Haze is a resounding disappointment that never truly shines in any department.
65Gamer's Hell Ultimately, Haze is still sitting in the wake of Call of Duty 4, and falls into that category of being just another FPS.
63Game Informer Haze's saving grace is its co-op gameplay, which can be fun when you shoot a friend's Nectar tank from behind to watch him freak out. But these short experiences do nothing to offset the major disappointment the rest of the game delivers.
62IGN AU It's not a terrible game at all. It's simply that it's such an ordinary and unremarkable shooter, and we were expecting so much, that we can't help but bitch about all the areas we wish were better.
62Cheat Code Central Even though nothing here is truly groundbreaking, if you just want another shooter you can do a lot worse than Haze. But, if you're looking for a title that gives you a long-lasting experience, then you may need to look elsewhere.
62GameTrailers Despite bugs that seem to pop up around every corner, Haze isn't an awful first-person shooter. It's just not a very good one.
60Gamervision Haze's heart was apparently too big for its chest, and the finished product is quite possibly the biggest letdown this generation.
60Level7.nu Haze is neither a bad game nor broken or unplayable. On the contrary, there are a lot of competent features to be found in this game. The problem with Haze is that it never stands out, it never delivers anything out of the ordinary. Four player co-op and some decent multiplayer-modes saves Haze from being a mediocre game.
60Maxi Consolas (Portugal) Despite the good background with the "Timespliters" series, Free Radical fails to deliver a appealing game, and the good moments provided by Nectar fall short to face so many negative points. From the problems in the gameplay and AI to the poor graphics and sound, Haze actually makes us cry for the return to "Timesplitters." [June 2008] 60VideoGamer Haze is far from a complete disaster but, given the high level of hype surrounding its release and the pedigree of developer Free Radical, it still stands as one of the biggest disappointments of this generation.
60GameTap There are many great ideas within Haze, they just happened to be trapped in an extraordinarily mediocre game.
60GameSpot A seven-hour campaign and uneventful multiplayer modes just don't cut it in light of the far better modern shooters available on the market.
58The Onion (A.V. Club) More narratively cohesive than the Halo trilogy, but less inventive and compelling than Resistance: Fall Of Man, Haze does finally give us a self-aware portrait of videogame soldiers, and a foil for all the head-butting, "boo-yah" behavior that's been the norm for far too long in the medium. Too bad it's paired with one of the more pedestrian FPS games to come along in recent years.
55GameZone On paper, Haze had all the makings of a PS3-exclusive classic but, thanks to poor execution, it just doesn't have what it takes to be a fun first-person shooter or a good game in general.
55PALGN A game like Haze from a developer like Free Radical had so much potential, but there are just too many issues with the end product, making it very hard to recommend.
53Gamer 2.0 When it comes down to it, Haze isn't a bad game at all, just a very mediocre game that would have felt more at home a year and a half ago at the PlayStation 3's launch.
51PSX Extreme Avoid this one at all costs, at least until you see it at the bargain bin for $10.
50Hardcore Gamer Magazine Haze can be enjoyable, but it's far from the PS3's killer app.
50Gamer.nl Haze has not become the game we all expected it to be. Although the idea is nice, the result is absolutely not original. Next to that the game has terrible AI and voice-acting. Graphics has it's limits and vehicles are really uncontrolable. We expected better from the developer.
50Gameplayer Visuals are ugly and uninspired.
45IGN Haze does not live up to the company's reputation thanks to a horrible plot, weak gameplay mechanics and visuals that are truly underwhelming. While playing with friends is enjoyable, not even those are enough to bring this lackluster title around.
40Giant Bomb Though it was announced just over two years ago, the end result plays like something that was slapped together and shipped after a year or so, rather than something that was painstakingly developed and refined.
40G4 TV There's nothing remotely compelling enough in the online modes good enough to take the focus away from the disappointing single-player mode.
40GameSpy It's clear from the bare-bones multiplayer, glitchy graphics and incredibly short storyline that Haze is a game interrupted.
40EuroGamer The combat's weak, the storyline's excruciating, it's technically deficient - Haze really is this year's most significant gaming disappointment.
40DarkZero Regardless of its name, it's still clear to see Haze is a disappointing game based on a weak premise that has been half-heartedly realised.

331UP On the whole, Haze isn't outright terrible or broken -- it's just unsatisfying and misguided and would have been merely average on the Xbox and PS2.
25Gaming Age It's all very ho-hum, even down to the visuals which are neither pleasing nor revolting. This is a game which when you play it, you'll wish you were playing a different game that it reminds you of which is more fun, and then you end up just wanting to play that other game.
