Lair REVIEW 2.0!
So here is my new review of Lair after I calmed myself down.
The game is utter garbage. Plain and simple... if you bought this game you lost money big time. (And I am one of them!) You can give me endless landscapes of breath-taking scenery. You can have epic battle music composed by some of the worlds greatest music makers. BUT when you design a craptastic game like Lair that DEFIES logic. I can't help feel that I was suckered.
For those of you who give Lair 8.0 and above.... good for you! You love this kind of game and are happy to accept whatever Matrix world you live in. For the rest of us normal people who like to question life instead of accepting spoon-fed information of why things turn out, this is not our game. I'd like to have more substantial gameplay than just tilting my controller. I even wonder WHY did they not just use the analog. It would have made the game INFINITELY more playable instead of trying to over-compensate for a turn.
And that sums up this review. The game looks good, but the game play muddy and sluggish. The soundtrack is awesome but the game play is HORRIBLE. The voice actors are not bad, in fact they are quite decent... but the game mechanics and control makes me want to cry.
Avoid Lair... you do NOT need this in your library of games. Your better off NOT playing anything on the PS3.
BTW to those who found my earlier review offensive, I apologize. But after spending an additional 10 hours on Lair I have to say it warrants being called The Worst Game of the Year 2007.
