Lair: Hands-on

Pro-G's Tom Orry: ".. the numerous levels I played point towards a very strong final product. I'm happy to report that this could be the most exciting game the PS3 sees this year."

Bloodmask6923d ago

Factor 5 is a good developer. I have their Gamecube games. So I'm sure this will be a good title as well.

At first I thought the gameplay would be repetitive but there do seem to be a good variety of attacks.

boi6923d ago

well its safe to say im getting this 1

Mishmash196923d ago

why does the author keep saying "with a few months of polish" and "when it launches later this year"?? It comes out a month tomorrow on august 14.

Snake_Doctor6923d ago

Put the Demo up. I'm pretty sure many people had doubts on this one but it seems as though those are fading for me as I am hearing good news on the gameplay. I still want that demo today. XBL has been getting a lot of demo love for E3 and yes i'm a bit jealous.

BTW anybody with an 360 wanna rundown there thought on the recent demos?

TruthHurts6923d ago

i want the DEMOS now, maybe later today.

Ace Combat 6 -
Great graphics. Some of the pre flight plan shots make this the GT of airplane games.

Pros
- Graphics high in the sky looks like it is fresh out of google maps
- Combat is exciting
- Ai is good
- Control feel solid
- Replay cam is cool
Cons
- Sense of speed need to be kicked up a bit
- Graphics extremely close to the ground are bad.
- Demo doesn't really tell a story.

Blue Dragon
Pros
- looks like a walking anime. Wow
- It's not another shooter
- Combat is more than just a turn based rpg.

- Cons
Demos of RPGs are confusin...You are dropped into an area with little idea of equipting, story, moves and statuses

NCAA -
Pros
- Graphis are imprved
- Hit stick 2.0 is great
- 60 FPS is perect
- Looks like the sports game of the year.

Cons
On long runs, Break away speed looks slowed. RUnners never really stride like in real life. They

- Controls have changed for defensive adustments
Y = DBs
A = Defensive playmaker

Snake_Doctor6923d ago

bubble given, thanks
I may be getting NCAA but I gotta hear how All Pro is first.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle58d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde65d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy65d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12565d ago (Edited 65d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga66d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199266d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga66d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman66d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger66d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box67d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion66d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7267d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7566d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit66d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14966d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7766d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
