4.9 LOL. Wasn't this game hyped AAA? I was expecting better.

Anyway, mods, go ahead and lock this if there is already another thread on it that I didn't see.

I just saw it it's true. Sadly sony had to mess up the game andput SIXAXIS in for this game instead of doing the much easier analog

You're right, SONY messed this game up, just like that HORRIBLE failure Warhawk. /sarcasm.

Just because it's on the PS3 doesn't mean Sony made it. It was made then Factor 5, don't try to calin ownage on Sony.

"It's enough to leave you ready to punt the next lizard you see so that you can extract some level of retribution for the bubbling cauldron of hate this game has created inside you."

:lol:

I'm thinking the Sixaxis tilt controls is the one of the biggest mistakes Sony made with the PS3. Why couldn't you just have settled with Immersion like Microsoft did, Sony? Sixaxis should have been Dual Shock 3 from the start...

Graphics:

It's the definition of a mixed bag. The FMVs look awesome; the in-game stuff looks great but chugs; and the custscenes using in-game assets look framey. 7.5IGN

Sony's the publisher. They may have not developed this poop, but they are releasing the stinker on gamers.

Oh wow.... if it scores this bad here someone is leaving this place thanks to SW Bets muahahaha

HoldThePhone: "If Lair doesn't get AA on GS, I will leave SW forever!"

Add so far GS hasn't scored more than Lair for Bioshock, MP3 and I think Warhark too.

My favorite quote:

"It was somewhere in the neighborhood of my fourth pass over a bridge filled with two warring factions and a bunch of evil rhinos that I went from thinking Lair wasn't that bad to wondering if Lucifer himself pressed this Blu-ray disc in the pits of hell."

AA is 8.0 or 8.5

IGN gave it 4.9 So if Lair scores 7.5 or below here, it flopped

Edit: Sorry misread. Forget it :P
