True... but what's the point of bringing up PR of a long dead game you'd expect sony would want forgotten.

Unless they're making a sequel?

TBH to mention Lair at this point is so left field... I almost have to assume the guy must have personally have been involved in marketing it and has never forgiving us for failing to buy it in droves. I just don't get why you'd even mention it today.

Oh, and noting your earlier post I can inform you the patch did improve the controls a bit (I bought Lair for £3 in a bargin bin just to see if it was really that bad) but the game still had fairly obvious design flaws.

The concept was undeniably good, but the game clearly suffered from having the motion controls forced on it over normal controls coupled with rough edges that smelt strongly of a title rushed out the door to meet some marketing goals.

Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Actually the other day I was thinking, shall I get Skyrim or Lair? It is a touch choice

Though seriously, I haven't played Skyrim, but my friend has been using my Xbox to play it, and all that I have been demanding is ridable dragons instead of his puny horse (puny, yet able to walk along verticle slopes and fly for short periods...)

Reminds me on Haze, that other Sony exclusive pos.

At least Haze sold more that Bulletstorm on X360 lol.

Wow, someone's drunk. I hope...

Next up: Ubisoft asks Zelda: Skyward Sword fans where they were when Red Steel needed them.

I'd rather say TopWare Cries about the lack of support for Xblades, and compares it to Skyward Sword. xD

I'm a Foreigner, and as such, i am grateful for everyone pointing out any mistakes in my english posted above - only this way i'll be able to improve. thank you!

Whats so "absurd" about the comparision? He's talking about the dragons....
He didn't say Lair was better than Skyrim, he said the game deserved a lot more credit.

Been on multiple sites reporting on this story. Most of the comments are like "How dare he compare this game to my precious Skyrim?" Its ridiculous how big of a deal people are making out of this
