PS: seems like lair flop not in graphics , but gameplay

reviews by crispin, greg ford, and garnett (scores listed in that order):
6.0, 5.5, 5.0

crispin:the combat system is confusing, and the sixaxis controls don't always work the way they should. lock-on system is also jacked.

greg ford says the camera is frustrating in ground combat. the wide open levels hold a lot of potential but ultimately don't deliver

garnett says it's a "frustrating disappointment" with a few bright spots

OH well....well whatever. I still have trouble believing that the game is THAT bad. I mean I've seen some pretty bad games get higher scores than that in EGM>.....I still gotta wait for Gamespot for my final judgement (or atleast IGN)

I'll wait for the review, but right now the chance s of there being a AA score on this are looking grim. I'm ready to add this to the list of gmaes that pretty graphics never saved.

The biggest concern was always that the gameplay looked a bit weak. Seems more and more reviews seem to be confirming it. Few people disagreed with that Lair was graphically good (although brown), but building a pretty game around flawed gameplay can spell death. Guess we'll find out soon enough how well Lair stands up.

I agree, developer should concentrate more on gameplay rather than graphics.

yes.....and no. As this IS gamespot, the score will effect SW's...but...at the end of the day, i LOGG OFF, and back in the real world, I tend to go by the old saying..."MAJORITY RULES", and a site like gamerankings.com gives an average of all(including) gamespots reviews. you see, within the world of GS(SW's to be more precise) bragging rights, trolling, flaming, and everything else you can think of is fueled by GS's own review, but in "THE REAL WORLD", games may be(and usually are) more or less than what GS's system wars and fanboys/girls make them.

Are you so desperate for ownage that you're going to declare Lair a "flop" before GS has even reviewed it??? Especially considering that the game has been officially hyped as AA, which it could very well get here at GS.

gamefront mentioned nothing about the review. Either way though its GS's review that matters.
