Looks like I was wrong… there’s been a bunch of 2/5 reviews show up to go with a couple of 6/10s.

Edge have been generally upbeat about Haze throughout it’s development. Obviously that can all change in a review of final code, but their preview was pretty much full of praise.

Has anyone else gone live with a review yet?

I still think it’ll get at least a 7 from EG.

It’s not so much EG’s score, it’s the way they tell ‘em!

Dunno about EG, but I fear for the Edge score.

I really think EG are going to absolutely slaughter it. I’m scared, in fact.

G1GAHURTZ: I don’t think there’s going to be many 8s for some reason. Still… even the worst of the rest of the reviews should be higher than 4.5!

Ubisoft UK has finally worked out that the internet makes local embargoes rather pointless.

They probably just don’t want to have to go the next 3 days with ‘Haze is a 4.5!’ all over the net.

I’m sure they’re just doing this so that any 7s and 8s it might get can push the metacritic score up a notch or two.
