it was a good looking game graphically and the controls were a bit crude. I for one liked it and would love to see them go back and revive it. Reminds me of the Order a bit in that Sony makes some of the coolest best looking games that are unique and leave many of us dying for sequels.

this article should be dated for 2008.... 10 years ago....Running out of ideas?

Still rocking my copy. Booting it up it's extremely difficult to play if controls were better it might have been ok.

they just forgot to implement an engaging game with their flight simulator.

Rogue Squadron is dearly dearly missed.

They should've stuck with Nintendo they had something going over there the grass is not always greener on the other side

Once they fixed the sixaxis controls this game was decent, very generic but still a fun time in a call of duty sort of way

This game war horrible. The motion controls ruined it and even when they patched in standard controls the game was still a joke.

The idea was amazing the graphics superb, the whole execution not good😒They should do this again with real tight controls, and better level design.

"You should never believe the hype from the hardware manufacturers. Very big mistake,” says Eggebrecht

So true :)

The ass controls, everything else was great

Controls for me

I think it was a very good read.

controls. next time give ability to play without crap axis from launch

I enjoyed Lair despite the learning curve (it took a while to figure out how to get the dragon to do what I wanted). The ending is also pretty anti-climactic. An easy way to take out a final boss: fly by and destroy the tower she's in. However, there were moments in the middle of the game where I genuinely had a good time. I pretty much knew what I was getting into with the game before buying it though, and at the time it was one of the best looking games to get for my then shiny new PS3 to play in HD, so I mostly got it for that reason.

Lair? What year am I living in?

Lair?! Does anyone even play this anymore? This was a PS3 launch title, a bit late there.

Why are you guys bringing up a game that's like 8 years old? ...Move on man.

Motion controls, thats what!

I had a lot fun with the game! Using the six axis to control your Dragon was difficult but ultimately, once you got the hang of its nuances, it was fun. At the time, motion controls were bleeding edge tech and was refreshing. After the novelty of that faded, it was mostly a lackluster game but wasn't THAT bad. Funny how Polygon(MS Puppet) digs up a decade old Sony game, only to slam it. Typical

Tell me again how the multiplatform strategy was supposed to fix everything. Look at your results and compare them to Nintendo, which keeps thriving with exclusives. Your loyal fans are gone. And let’s not forget the pile of IPs you purchased only to let them rot.

The worst thing is this is down from last years numbers/expectations which was down from the previous years numbers/expectations. You think about how long “down” has been a consistent part of the communication and you realize those subscriptions are what’s holding that boat together. The price cut of gamespass is still a price raise in a string of price raises. They are trying to use players to offset the missing revenue. Now call of duty is out of gamespass, which is literally WHY they bought the company. To draw people to the subscription. They realized they missed a boatload of money and that wasn’t sustainable. Now you pay for it like you would have if they never bought the company… so why buy the company? Mind you those billions still need to be paid back. Yeah it gives you a chance to say we make the biggest FPS… but the internal conversations must be brutal at high level on topics that really matter. Like revenue. Profitability. And ROI for the shopping spree.

Is this like the 10th quarter in a row they're down 33% on hardware how is that even mathematically possible. You would think their mediocrity would Plateau
