Ubisoft and Free Radical release some new images of the controversial FPS Haze. Obviously, Photoshop has been doing some dramatic extra time over these... again.
The reason why they show mostly all their images in this top notch bullshot quality is because they know the game itself has sucky gaphics, so they want to "cheat" through screenshots.
I don't understand why they do this, sooner or later we all will be seing gameplay, so whats the point of releasing bullshots, do they think we are stupid :S
Seriously, if the gameplay (demo early May) impresses me then i might consider buying it, but graphically, it is not good as these images, which makes the gameplay visuals dissapointing.
bullshots or not, the game looks great. gameplay looks fun, premis and story seem original, i'll be buying day one. unless of course the demo is close to turok/darksector levels of crapness in terms of clunky, slow controls.
I just can't get into this game. The graphics are meh and the story is meh. However, the demo could win me over if the four player co-op somehow ends up being fun.
Oh my god... this screenshots are... not screenshots :D
maybe the basic graphics are ingame... but there are a LOT of filters applied!!!
Very nice explosions anyway
I don't understand why anyone is at all impressed by this "innovative" game.
Mainly becuase it's about as innovative as Bioshock was: Ergo, Not.
It's just that gamers like to think that the game they are playing means more than the standard patriotic movie rip-off FPS they're used to. What a load of pretentious crap.

Ironically, when I clicked on one of the images, there was ad in the pop up window that said "Learn Photoshop in just two hours!". Lmao.
Hahahaha, very good *lol* ^^
The game seems to be good. During the whole developpment time I lost interests into this game, but now I'll keep an eye on it, again. Waiting for first reviews and meanings of players. Perhaps a purchase.

It's made by Free Radical. If you knew the history of that company, it would be kind of a big deal to you to see what they're capable of with this game.

there should clearly be some sort of laws governing this...this is basically false advertising.
I hate it when they do that. When they release these type of screenshots and then us "watchers" will belive that is how the game will look like (before gameplay shows).
They shouldn't release these type of mock up images, aren't they proud of their engine? :S
If they aren't proud of it then don't show it and work on the graphics, but don't try fool us with photoshop image magic stuff, it won't work.
We say "alright it looks great, but lets see gameplay".
*gameplay shows*
wtf happened with the graphics we saw in those screenshots :S
Atleats when Guerilla released a few patch of screenshots they admitted it was "doctored" with, hat way being honest about it is good, but releasing such thing and not saying anything is stupid and low.
But I will definitely try the demo out, it looks and seems to be fun.
If the controls arent clunky and seems to play good andit entertains me enough to keep going, it means I will get it.
