Arrow Lair PS3 Game Review

Lair is a game which received much fanfare. It is, in fact, a game which has already been reviewed by several primary gaming magazines. While those sources focused on gameplay, we felt that the elements of audio and video quality were sorely lacking – at least in any sort of objective sense. As we unwrapped the Blu-ray packaging and inserted the game into the PS3 we realized we were going to be in for one heck of a sensory experience.

Freakin' controls. Surely a patch would be made available to fix it.
There has been too many games screwed up like this. One of the Tomb Raider games was almost impossible to play because of stupid controls.

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhh!

I hated this lame-*** game!! The controls and lock-on system flat-out suck! As soon as I finished it, I was like, "Thank God!" I haven't touched the damn thing since. I can't wait to trade it in towards Jericho or something else.

I don't have a PS3, but was thinking about getting one. Is there a way to use the analog stick on this game instead of the built in tilt control of the sixaxis?

Btw, That was from Factor 5, right? They made Turrican for the Amiga back in the day. Now that was an AWESOME game. I wonder how it would look on my projection system running on an emulator. Hmm..

Nope. You're stuck with the lame-*** tilt controls. Totally stupid of Factor 5 in my book.

Whatever rating you gave it, it's too high.

And there you are again...

...these forums used to be rare in that they seemed to be void of the usual internet trolls...

Sorry that I'm not a console tard, and that I've been playing great games on my pc for the last few years. It's called standards, you people should try them out sometime. Not saying all console games are bad, just most of them.

Lair is a heaping file of junk and you all know it.

Oh I freely admit that I hated Lair. I just think it's pretty stupid to slam things that you have no experience with.

I have a PC, but I've never used it for gaming. So for me to say, "Every PC game ever made is a pile of crap", is pretty stupid wouldn't you say?
