Four-player co-op for Haze News

PC Xbox 360 PlayStation 3
News by Robert Purchese

22 May, 2007

Free Radical's futuristic shooter Haze will feature four-player co-op in both campaign and online modes.

Studio boss David Doak confirmed the news at the Ubidays conference in Paris just moments ago, in a game which is apparently "not just about war itself, it's about your perception of war".

He claimed the title would tackle subjects "not normally addressed in videogames", detailing it as being "truly a bit more mature without being gory".

It's expected to be strutting its stuff on the show floor tomorrow, and we'll be bringing you our thoughts on it soon.

Haze is a first-person shooter for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC that's set some 25 years in the future. It puts at your disposal a high-tech arsenal of vehicles and weapons, as well as performance-enhancing bio-medical support.

Expect a swathe of new media for it to appear this week.

It's deeper than that.
It's about shooting cyborgs who were once poor third world infants, who were sold by thier parents to the evil Russian government for money. These "poor bots" still have the poor infants face on the cyborgs.

Do you shoot the cyborgs? Or pay just £15 a month to world vision to ensure poor families do not sell thier children to evil russian nuke-poisoning shady governments for money?

YOU DECIDE.
Haloboy!

Anyone that comes on here doing any kind of "Haloling" should be banned immediately.

Yes.

As for Haze, hmm, well I'm tired of watching the cheap ass OTT theatrics with the chap in the suit so I'm hoping we get some real gameplay footage to sink our teeth into very soon. Like tomorrow.

Halo 3 has four-player co-op, and that is the game I am truly looking 4-ward to!
