So far, no one has claimed ownage for lair, which, as a lemmings (80%)/sheep(5%)(cow 15%) I must say, is disgusting. If halo 3 got reviews like lair did, this bored would explode. I don't care if lair isn't out yet, or if its only been 3 reviews. There's no way to recover from the scores it has gotten, i will provide a link in a few. As for bioshock, people seem to think it might not contended for GOTY because of the demo, which i loved. The hype for the game has been that it might get good reviews. When the real hype should be of what reviews is has already gotten. See exibet A. Thats pretty amazing so far. Then for lair reviews, from gameranking.com at http://gamerankings.com/htmlpages2/929230.asp?q=lair we have exibet B. Yes play gave it a 9 out of 10. But in this case, compare that two the other two scores, which are closely linked, and the newly found austrialan review. Youc an see where it's heading. The clear point im making is...Bioshock has already not flopped, it cant flop, it may be GOTY. and cows, you just got one less game to hype this year. That puts your true exclusives, not timed, true exclusives this year down two what? 1-2 possible AA or AAA titles? Start praying.

Don't tell fanboys how to be idiots, they can do it by themselves without your help, and the only reviews that ever matter are the ones here on Gamespot.

Anyway, Lair can't flop until a Gamespot review is posted.

If Gamepor gave that review in full, it would be on GamePro's website. Instead you link to a third party site and nothing shows on GamePro.

Wait for the actual reviews, then talk whatever trash you'd like.

Sad, yes.

Cows treated Lair like the second coming of Christ. Until the early impressions hit.

It's hyped AA

Cows seem to have come to their senses (about this game) after all the hype this game has been getting over the years.

Although most of it was for graphics and not game-play. Usually a sign of things to come.

Lair was hyped AA, and still hasn't gotten reviewed at GS 0_o. What are you on?

Bioshock is a PC/360 multiplat, so I don't understand how you are trying to claim any sort of ownage here.

I still think that Lair could get a AA on gamespot and maybe AAA on IGN. I just want to play the game my self before i judge it.

Some of the reviews say that the controls pretty much blow but on another site the controlls kick a$$.

Then on the other hand some say that the fire is awsome but on others say the fire isnt realistic.

Some say it gets boring after a while other say something else.

One site reviews an unfinished version while other reviews laira version that is pretty much done.

Scores for lair range ffrom 5.5 (i beleive) to 9.

I still think lair could get a AA on gamespot because the only common problem that I read from reviews and previews are that the camera is awkward at times and that there is no direction arrow where you exactly where to go but i heard in a preview that lair does give you some kind of direction where to go.

Ill wait for the Gamespot review for sure if it still gets poor reviews ill probley buy it in the bargain bin in a year.

"If halo 3 got reviews like lair did"

So now EGM and GamePro are the only reviews that count huh?

You make it sound like Gamespot or even IGN reviewed the game, which they haven't. Why can't you people just stop posting worthless comments about Lair until the offical review is in.

besides, your supreme game magazine (EGM) contradicted their OWN review. In their magazine they said the controls were horrid. Just a couple days ago on their podcast EGM says the review was scored low because it was unrealistic dragon fighting, looked like Xwings, no radar, and they didn't like the colors used LOL.......but the controls were good. You trust these people still? They can't even remember why they hated the dam game.

There is no shame in that, Gears got amazing reviews and was huge. It was GOTY for a reason.
