I must have been in a coma when Lair dropped (PS3) game looks amazing and I never even heard of it

Being a Sony fanboy from 2006-2008 was a nightmare.

It was hyped before ps3 even dropped, it was supposed to be one of the big exclusives. Got shytted on everywhere cause of sixaxis. They patched it later so you can use traditional controls.

I remember not copping this game because my ps3 got the yellow light of death around the time it came out. It would be many years later until i touched a ps3 again. My 360 was putting in work.

based on the IGN review it was a decent game but the sixias controller movement is why they gave it a low score

they've since patch it so that you can use analogue sticks

I wonder if that patch existed before publications got to review it would things have played out differently?

This 100%
The game came out with forced six axis controls and was terrible to play. Once they patched in the analog controls I had a blast with the game. Another prime case of devs fumbling the bag due to a sloppy launch.
