Forums - Sony Discussion - US PSM give 5 to Lair and 6,5 to Warhawk !!!!!!


No one want to post it ???????????????????


German gaming webstite Gamefront has posted an image of the latest Playstation Magazine issue, in which both Lair and Warhawk have been reviewed. Both games will be in stores at around August/September but Playstation Magazine does not seem very happy with both games, as the magazine rates Warhawk 6.5, and Lair even lower: 5.0.

In the image of the magazine, you can see that Lair is described as: "A one-trick dragon" and destroys it with a 5.0 rating. Warhawk on the other hand is described as: "A third-person shooter that never quite gets off the ground", and rates the game with only a 6.5. The image can been see below.

Ouch, PSM doling out the low scores says A LOT

To me Warhawk seemed similiar to Shadowrun - 1/2 a game. I am very surprised about Lair. Even though I don't own a ps3, I am a fan of fantasy games. Sad to see.



Very surprising, the games look so impressive. I'll have to play them before making my own views on the games but it's hard to imagine they are that bad.

Also most people seemed to really enjoy the Warhawk beta.



 

...yikes.

OMG I BET PSM ONLY PLAYED BETA CODE FOR LAIR!!! PSM IS SO BIAS!!

Anway, I think this should get people to realize that EGM wasn't full of shit when they reviewed Lair. Also, I'm kinda surprised by Warhawk, however I was disappointed with it when I played the beta. Also, that game was in development hell, so it would have been more surprising if it had gotten great reviews.

BTW, your link doesn't work.


EDIT; A guy on Neogaf claims that a person on the IGN podcast called Lair "painful" to play. Take shelter guize, Lulz is incoming...

"Why do they call it the xbox 360? Because when you see it, you'll turn 360 degrees and walk away" 

PSM bias against PS3 confirmed!


Assume this is supposed to be the picture:

To cash in my CC rewards points for $300 in Circuit City gift cards to purchase a 360 or not: That is the question.

IGN too. In the podcast they say Lair is painful, repetitive and not very fun.

That´s bad. I thought PSM would give those two games higher scores.

At least Heavenly Sword seems to be a good game.



Sad to hear ,Lair looks really amazing .Warhawk I think its suffering the same fate as Shadowrun ,without one player campaign mode about half the reviewers out there are going to charge against it .We should see some better scores though .

As always ,I will wait for IGn ,Game Informer and Gamespot reviews .
