Famitsu, one of the most reputable gaming mags in Japan gave lair 34/40. Here is a look at what they are doing to rev up the hype overseas.
Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "When shopping for new video games you can often trust the name publisher or developer on the box to be an indication of the quality of the game. Names like Nintendo, Square Enix, Sony Interactive Entertainment, Capcom, Xbox Game Studios and Sega are world famous because they helped shape the industry by releasing some of the most defining video games of all time. Though sometimes even these great gaming houses stumble and put out a stinker."
Splatterhouse remake . Loved the og’s at the arcade growing up . Hell the best thing about the remake was the og,s were included . And left alive by Square . That game had so much potential , but the gameplay was worse horrendous .
I'm pretty much certain that any Sonic game that comes out will be terrible, I've not enjoyed one since the original side-scrolling days of the MegaDrive.
A reimagining of 5 disappointing video games and the masterpieces they could have been underneath other studios.
The Order has its faults yes but it had a fantastic atmosphere and some great gameplay. A game with enormous potential and far from disappointing. I say give Ready at Dawn another crack at it because I think they created an diamond with some rough edges that just needs some tlc.
The order should have had a sequel. The first one wasn't bad just needed a few tweaks.
PlayStation’s strong and impressive lineup of exclusives is probably the biggest edge it has over its direct competition in the market- a fact that has been true for as long as anyone can remember.
Ridge racer for PSP was actually good and shouldn't be on this list. I think I'm the only one that enjoyed Haze.
When this piece of flotsam indicated that "Being a clone of GTA shouldn't be that hard" I just closed the window.

i think they are gonna love it over seas, they love complicated games.
I loved Lair.
one of the reason i like famitsu is that they have 4 ppl grading one game. So that way you are not just looking at one dochebag fanboy's review or anti-fanboy. It's a natural check and balance system. I like that.
did this game come out latter in japan or something
even with all the very mixed reviews the game is getting, im still going to get it i think...jsut when ive the money! theres too many games that are vying for my money in the run up to xmas!
Lair was pretty awesome if you can forgive a couple of framerate hitches. That was the only noticable problem I saw with it. The motion feels great (to me anyway), and everyone who has played my cop has loved it and wants to play it over and over again. One friend even just went and bought a PS3 to but it. It really is a well-made game, it's just got a bad bandwagon effect going for it.
