Haze Exclusive to PS3 'this holiday season' | Forums

Announced at the Sony Conference.

WOW at the new trailer!

EDIT:

Official:

IGN: There has been a ton of speculation about Haze becoming a PS3 exclusive. Now that it's official, can you talk a bit as to why you've decided to go "PS3 only?"

Dave Doak: PlayStation has always been something of a spiritual home for us, so we're delighted to be developing this game exclusively for PlayStation 3. The combination of its raw processing power and the versatility of the PlayStation Network make the PS3 the ideal platform for Haze.

Tony Key: Free Radical has an extraordinary history of developing on Sony consoles, and as their first offering in the next generation, it was a natural fit to launch Haze exclusively on the PS3 this holiday. This pedigree combined with Ubisoft's reputation for top quality FPS games and the power of the PS3 creates a recipe for success.

IGN: Is it a permanent exclusive or will it be timed, ala Oblivion?

Key: Haze will only be found on PS3 this holiday season, and will remain exclusive through the first quarter of the calendar year.

Even if Haze is a timed exclusive, I am very happy that PS3 has MGS4 to brage about.

I'm dissapointed that Killzone looks awesome because I loved the first one actually unlike most people and it was the best online experience I've had. Unfortunately I'm leaning towards 360 and will have to miss it...

I still got to say though that Haze looks better than both Halo 3 and Killzone 2. Hopefully I'm right.

I also hope they show FFXIII...

[deded999]

You're disappointed that it looks awesome?!

Watch the Sony conference mate, you might start to lean towards the PS3...

On Haze, it's pretty much as expected then: PS3 lead platform this year then out on 360/PC early next year presumably - Haze avoids the Halo sandwich and lands at a relative time of drought in which it can do probably far better on those platforms and with great word of mouth from the PS3 launch...
