New answered letters on freeradicaldesign.co.uk

Yes, R107 has been keeping up with the letters. More funny answers and a few answers only based on probability. Included in the answered letters, R107 says there may be a jump and roll function and there may be no Mapmaker. But then again, he said maybe for almost everything.

New letters and a new advert on www.frd.co.uk

Not at lot more new information from the letters section, except Free Radical Design seem to be serious when they mention TimeSplitters 2 HD. Perhaps one day it will become a reality?

How the ign review for HAZE is wrong

The IGN review for HAZE has rated it as poor. But doesn’t this just make IGN poor? Yes it does. In each section here is why the review is wrong:

4.5 Presentation
A bland story with weak characters and simplistic commentaries on serious topics, Haze is a generic tale at best about war.

The story isn’t bland and can be interesting at times. You should be able to make your own opinions on the characters and the story is not simplistic at all.
