A German website is reporting that Haze is to remain a total PS3 exclusive and will not be making an apperance on the Xbox 360 later on as first thought. It could be a bitter blow for the Xbox 360 if the game takes off as expected, but well the 360 has its own fair share of exclusive top shooters anyway.

It would cetainly make good PR for the company to have a top shooter on an exclusive deal with the PS3. They know it would get a lot of people talking about the game, so may be a good move for them.

I was looking forward to this game, but recent video make it look like it has framerate issues, I hope they fix those and I hope this turns out good.

Thats weird...I think it was joystiq had an article yesterday about Haze from Leipzig that specifically talked about the 360 version. No difference to me though its not something I would have bought.

Thier loss.. the 360 has sold way more than the PS3. It's a mediocre Shooter at best, and with such stiff competition out there (Halo 3, Blacksite, Bioshock, Call of Duty 4) it may just get lost in the mix. They are shooting themselves in the foot.

hmmm odd, b/c it's the same "new" screenshots posted on the ps3 section. It's still not decided whether this is exclusive or not and already proved that to you already straight from the ubi forums.

Well, eXp is not the most reliable source for German user, just a bunch of gamers posting their crap they heard somewhere on the site. You can expect it to be true if Gamefront or K-Videogames post it on their sites, otherwise it's a BIG rumor.

Too many other greater games/FPS to give a ****. I wasn't going to get it anyways; I thought the concept was pretty stupid.

BTW: Has anybody seen the Brothers In Arms video. They're in insane:eek:!

thnx. im going to say there doing what they did with assassin's creed where they brought the game to sony and awaited a deal which ofcourse means money to keep the game exclusive. If they dont respond then it will be confirmed. funny the same thing happened from the same company

First of all i don't play FPS, they make me sick, so i don't give a toss if this is on 360 or not.

Now having said that your link proves nothing, it's a lot of arse covering take a look at the words used and read what it says not what you want to read, words such as

"offically" means that as far as the company line goes this is what we are going to say, however the truth is a lot differant.

when someone says "PC and 360 versions are not confirmed at this time" they mean that they will be at some point.

Thanks for the link, having read it i agree with whackawookie, looks like they are keeping their options open, pay up Sony or it goes multi-platform.

yea frak is a bit over the top sometimes but this time he has a case.

this isnt a first time situation where zeus has put in his own opinion in what appears to be attempts at starting fights.

they are human and therefore are allowed their opinion. it is just very weird that they choose to give it each time that they post something on the main page.

no fanboyism in fraks comment, in fact i think he was right on.

Play.com still have it listed for the PS3, 360 and PC. Why would a multiformat publisher sudenly decide to go for a single format, and the weakest one at that. Stiil if it's true then it's no big deal as it was going to be a PC game for me anyway (and if need be it would have been a PS3 purchase anyway).

Smells off to me, I'm still all for official statements as opposed to rumours, until the devs/publishers say otherwise then who cares.

That works both ways, like bioshock being crap according to PS3 fanatics as it's not on their system. As for Haze, the only people I have seen bigging it up are PS3 owners, everyone else has been pretty much meh about it, even though it is multiformat.

Personally I find it a bit pathetic that people rate games based on the system it is on, that is unless it is multiformat then it is pretty fair to make a comparisson (though that is just based on how it looks, sounds, controlls etc, the game it's self would be essentially the same). If Haze is good and in the unlikley event that it is PS3 only then it should be accepted as being good, regardless. If it is average or worse then I also think that should be accepted instead of the denial that usually follows games that have been overhyped.

no one said it was going to the wii,,, or the ps2?????

sarcasm aside..... how is the ps3 the weakest?

why would it be a surprise to see a game go ps3xclusive when so many other games have gone similar for the 360?

the ps3 will catch up one day if not pass the 360 in quality. they are both very good consoles.

both with big problems though.

hey thats all good if its a ps3 exclusive,but they are right,it wont hurt the 360 as it has plenty of good FPS!! ps3 only has resistance,so they need more FPS!!:rolleyes:

I mean as in weakest selling format, with the lowest install base meaning the lowest potential profits. Going exclusive on the 360 is still probably not the best idea either considering this current gen dose not exactly have a massive install base yet. But simply put if devs have to choose one format, the 360 is the most financially rewarding at present (well for a game looking like this as it would not run on a wii without a serious downgrade). The only advantage I can see of going PS3 exclusive at present is that due to how few decent exclusives it has, more of it's install base are likley to buy it which may outnumber the ammount that buy it for the 360. However I would say the smart money is on going multiformat for now.

if it comes to 360 at a later stage it comes to 360 simple.

if you only got a 360 and it does turn out to be a ps3 exclusive and will never see the light of day on 360 then go out and buy a ps3 simple.

as for zeus posting a opinin,if it was his(who says that it was his) i havnt seen the original news source and i just cant be arsed looking.

then what are we doing,giving our opinions!

so since when could i you or anyone else have a right to express an opinion and some individuals dont?

go out and buy a ps3 this crimbo if you dont have one.dont be a christmas scrooge and splash out some of your hard saved pounds.if not wait till the ps3 drops in price and buy a secondhand copy of it.
