Lair - Image 1 


For everyone who marked August 14 on their calendars, here's a little bad news: Lair's release date has been moved to September 4. SCEA Associate Producer Ryan Hamlyn made the announcement on the official PlayStation blog just a few moments ago.

Some will remember that Lair was said to be in manufacturing stage and ready for shipment, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Further Quality Assurance sessions have led devs to the discovery of some minor offline mode issues that are yet to be addressed.

To make up for the delay, the game will offer enhanced community features such as leaderboards and medal systems that will be integrated into single player. Well, our fingers are crossed hoping that Lair will be in full glory when September 4 comes.

Could it be because the reviews have all said its poo.

 » Not good for them

an August release was really the ideal time for them... a lot of people are getting this just because of that... to tie them up until the big titles come out by September/October (Heavenly Sword, GTAIV, Assassins Creed, Rachet and Clank, Drakes Fortune, SOCOM, Warhawk)...

now Lair will get released close to those games (which are actually more anticipated and can be said as better games than Lair)...

they just pumped up the competition significantly...

really, you've played them? If not how can you say they're better?

I feel the same way. I was going to get this game to hold me over for a bit, but whats the point? F this ling wait....F IT!!!!!!

   Re: Quixand - 2007-08-01
 » oh man you are stupid

in August Lair has the market all to itself compaired to September... GTAIV alone will clean the floor with Lair and then you add the likes of Heavenly Sword, Assassins, and Drake and even Warhawk who have been getting all the good news and compliments lately from everyone in the industry (from gamers to analysts, to beta players, to gaming sites, developers.. everyone) plus the proven franchise of Rachet and Clank while Lair is having a hard time pleasing reviewers...

everybody here knows that people are looking for games to tie them up while waiting for the big boys and Lair was that game..

if you can't see how huge a mistake it is for Factor 5 to postpone this game till September then you are just plain stupid.

And before you shout XBot at me... I'm one of the foremost supporters of the PS3 on this sight... but I ain't blind to the facts.

aww, this is sad. this is like seeing a starving kid on tv sad. you mean you guys have to wait months between average games just so you can hold on till the one or two blockbusters arrive? rofl

and a special note to quixtran, you ARE blind. you support a console with NO GAMES.

I hate to say but I rather get Warhawk and Heavenly Sword before I get this but my opinion might change when I see the reviews and I might pick it up

LOL CLASSIC!!!

Lair dev 1: *Well we got horrible reviews for a game sony fans were banking on, what should we do?*

Lair dev 2: *Hmm, lets just take a bunch of features that EVERY 360 game has like Leaderboards, Medals, and lets just tack them on.*

Lair dev 1: *Sounds like a plan! At least we can pretend we made a game that would match up to anything the 360 has to offer.*

that's it, i'm selling my f**king PS3. well, I'm going to trade it with some cash for my 1st car. havn't had any decent games for the f**king console from the start! don't believe in the hype of anything is my lesson learnt.


   Re: Quixand - 2007-08-02
 » go ahead

sell it and then stop whining..

you've got ur problems, we don't care about them.

just sell it already... why come here and moan about it.

   Re: AoxomamoxoA - 2007-08-02
 » sell that pos3!

good idea, you better sell it before the value goes down!!

get a 360 if you want games, they have many many MANY more titles than ps3.

i own both, and there have only been two games ive bought for my ps3 while ive bought countless games for my 360. my gamerscore is 37k if that gives you an indication, since every game is worth a MAX of 1000 points (and i dont have all achievements in every game, not even a quarter of them).

   Re: CHUCKINGROCKSATSPACESHIPS - 2007-08-02
 » Nothing On Xbox 360 Sounds As Good

Nothing on the 360 sounds as good as the PS3 exclusive line up to me. It is still worth the wait. I would rather wait than buy a 360 and have it mess up on me and then have to wait to get it sent back. That would be more annoying than waiting a couple weeks more for Lair.

   Re: Demon Slayer - 2007-08-02
 » Wow

That's pretty sad. You're claiming you have at LEAST 148 games for your 360. That's not even a hobby at that point. At $60 each, that's about $8880 spent on games alone. Some games may have been less, but I'm not factoring in tax, so it should be about right.

Not even two years into a console's lifespan and you've spent about $9000 on games. This is something you're PROUD of? Just so you can brag online about how much money you've handed over to Microsoft?

   Re: AoxomamoxoA - 2007-08-02
 » noobs

Nah, just goes to show that 360 has better games and many many more. Who said i bought them anyways? If you work at eb you get first dibs and can repackage them when youre done.

   Re: Demon Slayer - 2007-08-02
 » Umm...

YOU said you bought them. Do you even pay attention to what you type when you post?

You guys are right, I'm an idiot, I don't even own a PS3. And my 360 broke 8 times, once while I was molesting it from being such a fanboy!

 » ok..

To AoxomamoxoA... a guy or a women... anyway is one of the most strange nick I saw here... I really own both... if u have both console good.. but who knows and more with what u are saying... if u really believe in what u said... u just sold ur console already... and with the PS3 have no games... the history in PS told me that in the beguinning the PS brand never have good games in the first year.. at least any to buy a console... in the long road always have the better games.. at least for me... and for my 360 for all the games that I bought.... I only play gears of war and bomberman live (silly game but a lot of fun)... so... yes.. 360 have a lot of games... but nothing worth playing...for lair... yes.. low reviews... but everyone knows that... even Quixand told so many times... for me.. a lot of power in that game with a crappy gameplay... and gameplay come first so... anyway maybe I will rent it to see it for myself... anyway stop posting dumbs post that u look now like the xman guy... and believe me that he is the worst fanboy I ever see here...

This game looks like its gonna suck. Riding around on a dragon = lame. Ill save my money for warhawk

   by Morbidly - 2007-08-02
 » ya

who really cares about lair, warhawk will offer anything lair can and more plus its already getting good reviews like said earlier, so why would anyone want a bad reviewed game if its gonna be released around the same time anyways? thats the best point made on here so far that needed to be reiterated.
