Lair is actually a decent game, but it's inconvenient control scheme makes it hard to recommend.
Anyone who questions the graphics of this game, however, is just plain foolish and needs to see an optometrist. The game is downright gorgeous, with seeping vistas and alarmingly detailed textures that make you sigh and think if only the controls weren't so inconvenient. The controls are, simply put, a mistake. It isn't that controlling the dragon with your sixaxis isn't terribly difficult, but rather that it comes across as a real inconvenice: just let me rotate the goddamn analog stick! The inability to use the analog stick is an enormous oversight by Sony/Factor 5.
The voiceacting is fine and the soundtrack is excellent, but the story is the same old "two nations at war" rehash. Overall, this came really can be enjoyable, but any game with people riding dragons should be able to do that.
