Lair (2007) Online

Lair is an action, flight, and combat game in which players control the reins of a dragon to fight both in air and land. The player controls a knight in a secret society known as "The Burners", all of whom fly dragons in combat. While it is unknown whether or not you are able to dismount your dragon and fight as just the knight, Factor 5 said that they hope for you to get off the dragon in certain areas and be able to get back on. It is known, however, that you are controlling the dragon through him.

LAIR was a game that kept catching my eye, but I repeatedly shook off buying it due to the poor critic reviews. Finally, I decided to trust my instincts and give it a try. I was not disappointed; the story is intriguing, the graphics are excellent, the music is awesome, and I enjoy the control scheme. I really don't see where all the negative review scores have come from. This game deserves plenty of positive recognition. I did not even realize how intricate the PS3 controller was until I played this game.

The complaints I have about LAIR are very minor. I really wished it was a little longer. The targeting system on the controls needs some refining, but this did not hamper my enjoyment. There were some drops in frame-rate with some of the effects in the game.

If you have been on the fence about LAIR, definitely go get it. If you like innovative games, definitely pick this up.

The reviews are largely spot-on in my opinion, but it doesn't change the fact that overall this is game is a pleasure to play. Visually, this game is a treat for the eyes. The developers must have taken a lot of time to ensure this world takes your breath away, and the movement of all characters always flawless. The drawback is the experimentation with the six-axis controls. People need to realize the technology to effectively do this simply doesn't exist, at least not yet, it seems. And if it does, it's not on the PS3 any more than it is on the Wii. While the control scheme isn't nearly as bad as people make it out to be, it does get frustrating whenever I have to do anything complicated with the six-axis tilting and spiraling. With that said, the Dragon usually does what I had in mind, and when it doesn't, hell, the movement WAS complicated so maybe it makes sense that a massive flying lizard couldn't turn on a dime. Maybe that's another complaint though... this dragon really is a massive flying lizard and nothing else. Way to make my favorite fantasy creature into a 1-dimensional mount. But hey, all in all, I've never been able to fight entire armies riding a deadly dragon like this before. And the game IS really fun. Besides, I found it in a bargain bin. I would have paid the $5o or so for the game after playing it for awhile, so HELL YES I'll get it for $20.

When this game was first previewed i have to admit it was the reason i bought a PS3, when it finally came out after being held up for a few months i purchased said game on release day popped it into my PS3 and like everyone else was horrified by what i experienced. After 2 of 3 days of trying to get a handle on the controls i banished it to the bottom of my collection and forgot about it for a year, until, last week while talking to a mate i found out that a update was available off PSN which added analog control settings (somthing that should of been there in the first place !!) later that night i installed the update and have'nt looked back since, just to clarify this by no means makes it a perfect game to play but anybody who has played the Rouge Squadron games should be fine after about an hour. Not having to worry about the controls leaves you free to enjoy the story and most of all the soundtrack which on occasion just blows you away and fits the mood of the story perfectly. If anybody like me has this and forgot about it or even if you chance upon it in the bargain bin (i live in Dublin and have seen it for 9.99 euro's) give it a shot cause i'm sure as hell glad i did.

Thanks for reading, Laters !
