[QUOTE="DaRockWilder"]Thats why it got a 4.5 here in GS?acidBURN1942
Did you read the review? That writing was god awful. They just knock on the PS3 the whole time, they just can't play the game. They SUCK at it. I control my dragon just fine, i take QUICK turns just fine, i can lock onto targets just fine and usually I am flying good enough to get the target I am after.

Maybe they just need to learn better tactics so they dont suck at the game. Because honestly now that review was pathetic.

Yes i read it....and this isnt the only review that has given it a low score, so i guess every reviewer sucks at the game huh LOL

pretty much, every review I have read for it I have found out is utterly wrong after playing it and getting good at the game. There are ways to do quick turns, there are ways to target the right beast you want, and even then this is not some mechanical machine that has precise calcuations for you to target with, this is a dragon a blood thirssty beast that wants to destroy all, it makes sesne that it targets irractically and that you have to line it up or make the beast concentrate ona certain target. The reviewers are just not good at this game.

EDIT: In fact it did not take me long to get good at the game, it throws stuff at you in just the right way to teach you the controls. It just doesnt tell you its doing so, which is its biggest flaw.

I don't get it. Players love it, reviewers hate it. that's why I don't trust reviews.rogerjak

Really? I trust reviewers, not people who have already invested $60 in a game and don't want to look like idiots. I trust the people who are paid to be impartial over a kid who put down $60 on a product no one had tested yet. Seems common sense to me.

first off Im no kid, second off im not trying to justify my purchase because im am very happy with it, thidly I am trying to get people to realize that this is not a bad game and that these reviewers are nonsense. Why trust a reviewer over me? what weight do they have in this industry over me? I have played games longer than them, I have put more love and passion into this industry than them. you just dont know me, bet if i had a flashy website with horribly written reviews youd belvie me. but hey thats the internet and ignorance for you.

That's pretty silly. If the game sucked, they'd just return it or sell it... not come online and hype it up.

I mean I see where people are coming at when they say this game bad (i do not on the other hand see how people say LAIR is "presed by lucifer" or "a disaster" "do not buy LAIR"), Im not saying its a 9.0+ game, its at least a 7.0 II give it a 8.5, but its definately not a 4.5 or anything below a 7.0.

i too just purchased lair and have played through the first five missions and i must say i'm pleasantly surprised. the controls actually do work well for the most part, and the graphics are really good, although their are deffinitely hiccups in there. its a fun game that i can see people not enjoying soley for the fact that they can must use the sixaxis controls. all in all i give it a 7.5. i wish factor 5 would've kept this in the oven for a bit longer, but it is still entertaining and a good game to show off the ps3.

If u take the time to learn the controls, the game is awesome, graphics top notch. If, however, you base your final review score off a first impression and do not take the time to learn how to ride the dragon, then you are gonna suck at the game. This doesn't mean the game sucks though, it just means you suck at it. Pop this baby in a nice surround sound system and sit back and enjoy the immersive sound and great graphics, if u fall off the bike at first, don't cry like a ***** about it and say bikes suck, get up off your butt and keep trying till u nail it. The game is good and it's worth your time.

IT IS WEIRD! but i think IT IS BUSINESS!

what if it was a WII game? and they have named it WIIragon?! then everyone and every site was talking about how good it is! how innoative it is.. HEY JUST LOOK! IT'S MARIO RIDING ON A DRAGON.. HOOORAAAAAAAy! AND IF YOU EAT MUSHROOMS YOU AND YOUR DRAGON WILL GROW UP! LOOK AT HIS FIRY MUSTACHE! LOK AT HIS FAT ASS! OH! WE LOVE YOU MARIO!!!! LOOK AT HOW GOOD IS WII MOTE! THEY MAKE US PLAYING GAMES IN WAYS WE HAVEN' EXPERIENCED BEFORE.. THIS IS INNOATION!

but it is sony, everytime it does something different, they find it stupid!

Lair is bad because it's showing people SIXAXIS can do everything that stupid Wiimote can do !

P.S : Don' talk to the strangers... specially FAT GUYS WITH MUSTACHE ! Cause they are hiding a wiimote somewhere for ur somewhere!

I totally agree and if it was on the 360 fanboys would be hatin' on the PS3 and claiming they have another hit. SOunds similar to the issues with Dead Rising "Can't see the text, poor aiming, framrate and slowdown issues, but it is fun, it is awesome it is great" why can they overlook issues but when ps3 owners do it we are considered idiots?

Umm okay. Just continue to convince yourself that Lair isn't a supreme disapointment. Even if it was on the Wii or the 360 it still would have been a disaster. Factor 5 didn't implement the six axis controls very well. Get over it.

The reviews are hating it and the fans are loving it. I guess it all boils down to sales to determine wich side of the camp is right.

Problem is MANY people base their purchase on reviews, and its clear that the reviewers are not doing this game justice. This means less games will sell. Hopefully a demo will release and show people how awesome it is.

That's the dumbest arguement in the world. Lair got a bad score on Gamepot 4.5 in addition to a bad score on IGN 5.5 and a hefty handful of bad review on other sites. Why? Because the rest of the world hates the PS3? Yea right, the rest of the world owns a PS2, there are about 4X as many PS fans as fans of any other console.

Every time a massively hyped game gets less then amazing scores there is an outcry of PS3 fanboys claiming they alone know the truth and that the world is against them. Are you serious? Grow up and look around, reviewrs are paid to be objective. PS3 faboys put down $60 on a game reviews told them was bad because they were convinced by it's marketing and are looking to believe in their console. Yea, that's real objective.
