So you're saying Lair is going to be as good as Red Steel?  that can't be good.  (and for the record, you can't compare reviews that are out of 5 to reviews out of ten.  Although technically they can, the psycological aspect of reviewing something out of five is different than reviewing something out of ten

That's the one on Bravo right? Its a casual insulting program that only likes FPS games, football, driving, etc and the guy who does the voice-over is a nob. Otherwise things are shaping up badly for the Lair of Flop.

I'm just saying, yo can't really compare the two rrating systems because out of 5 will always have less percision which will lead to rounding etc.  And if they gave Red Steel a 3/5, how good can Lair be?

Is a tipical flying "thing" shooting stuff...

Is there anything new in the gameplay other than flying and shooting? If there is, I dont know what it is

I would mention that play magazine gave Lair a 9 but they also gave Ninety Nine Nights a 9 so they don't have a lot of credit it seems.

He sure is. I hate that guy so much and to make things worse he even supports West Ham! Gamer.TV are losing my trust all the time. They gave Shrek 3 and Spiderman 3 4/5? What? They didn't even review Twilight Princess and they gave Motorstorm 5/5 and said it was the best PS3 game around. Seriously, this show means nothing

O boy, welcome to the next killzone.

I remember months back, cows were hyping this so bad for its graphics and massive maps among other things. They better hope it doesnt flop. They will never hear the end of it.

So because a site overrated one game, they're going to underrate another?

I think it's more likely that they'll overrate Lair, as well.

Well that was lemming's excuse for when Heavenly Sword got a 10, the site is untrustworthy. Of course, when cows say it the site isn't bias at all, apparantly...

No one said it was going to be an "easy AAA", the hype wasn't even AAA. Plus, we don't know it as an epic flop considering we're on Gamespot and Gamespot hasn't reviewed it yet...

Three out of five still isn't a very good score. That's a solid 60%, which is well... still a mediocre score. :| The best I see it getting on GS is in the 7s at the most.

Ugh, the large carrier dragons that have structures on their backs explode because they're filled with methane, helium.. Some kind of flammable gas.

Why am I the only one who knows this..

Because Lair is not worth researching for a gamer with good taste.

EDIT: And helium isn't flammable. That's exactly why they use it in modern airships. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'd say 6-7 after the demo kevin played on OTS. He didn't like the controls at all. I didn't know you have to press mashing the buttons to flap the dragons wings! That's an awful idea!

Hey now, I haven't been in a science class in an entire year. Even then I didn't pay attention.

I can't be held responsible if little things like that slip my mind. ;D But hey, apparently I've got bad taste. Although when it comes to games, at least features of games I like to know what I'm talking about.

Your not, lol. Anyway, what is so unnatural about fire breathing dragons containing flammable gas? Did anyone ever think that just maybe it was a concept created in order to help support the whole fire breathing aspect? Seems like a cool idea to me, not to mention the effect of blowing up flammable dragons will probably be a really cool effect while in battle.

By the way, every time I eat Taco Bell, I am filled with methane gas as well, lol. I just hope that nobody flies by on a dragon and tries to blow me up when I have to fart real big.

Let me tell u people a little bit about the history of this program.

They gave doom 3 a 5/5,driver 3 a 4/5 and original metriod prime for the gc a 4/5.They gave NGB and god of war a 4/5 but tomb raider legend get's a 5/5.

But the most hilarious thing is that they gave burnout takedown a 4/5 but revenge got a 5/5.

Well u can already see that this is a 100% unrealible program.
