Dude... I must admit I laughed my arse off at those pics, but that's clearly trolling. Lair looked to me to have a lot of promise. I WILL be getting a PS3 soon and I was really hoping this title would ROCK as I'm a huge fan of the Panzer Dragoon early games and was hoping this would take that idea to the next level. I can't believe they force the sixaxis controls as the only option, though. I would have to guess that Sony put a lot of pressure on Factor 5 for that to have happened as *somebody* on the development and test team *had* to say at some point: "Hey, this sixaxis thing isn't quite right. Let's go analog as well so we don't alienate users".
I know a lot of people have posted that it takes time to get used to the controls but I think they are missing the point. The whole idea in gaming is to create an immersive experience where *you* don't have to adapt to anything and everything just fits right in place. I don't mind making the effort *sometimes* but generally if I can't control it fairly well right off the bat, I move on... Again, shame on Factor 5 for not giving an analog option.
BTW, anyone know the approximate budget, team size, and development timeline on this one? I gotta figure it's pretty darn big and this is going to really, really hurt Factor 5 if it bombs.
I hate trolls.
