Durante said:I like Play. Compared to all the negativity and mudslinging in forum threads it's refreshing from time to time to read something that's, if anything, too positive.
Though they really do like to utterly overrate games. I'd have given OS a 10 as well... after 7 or 8 hours. After twice that and later... not even close.

FortunateSon said:It really looks like an "F".
Error said:LAME
I was hoping for a cool P3 cover. kinda like the Odin Sphere Play cover... oh well.

g23 said:? i'm not even joking. Yeah they could have easily turned lair into something like this:
but they made an amazing looking game with outrageous creatures. It really feels like a world you would be afraid to be in instead of some wacky generic fantasy setting.

Segata Sanshiro said:Well, it's not like it's a bad thing. It just doesn't really mean a whole ton in either direction. At least we know it's not totally ****ing terrible now?
Death_Born said:Wait...Lair isn't a generic fantasy setting? I see castles, armies, dragons that breathe fire, guys with armor and swords riding dragons...am I missing something here?

AltogetherAndrews said:I haven't seen many games that look like Lair. They may share settings and objects, but it's fairly unique in a design sense.
drohne said:lair's creature design is really strong. i remember hearing that they're working with some stop-motion effects guy. and it shows. it's kind of amazing that gafers have seized on 'bad art' as the standard knock against this game. it's completely inaccurate, and you'd think xbots would be wary of a slur that's been unfairly applied to so many xbox games.
Death_Born said:That actually looks like a real magazine cover...
Dreamcast 2 confirmed!!
AltogetherAndrews said:As opposed to what, industrial design?

like you're genuinely interested... :lolKarma Kramer said:any impressions from gameplay?
Speevy said:I'm still holding out hope that it's not very good. I'll choose to ignore this review, thank you very much.
No dual covers?shidoshi said:No. Cover is Perso... I mean Blue Dragon.

Why do the particular screenshots you chose look like garbage then?g23 said:Does anyone else here think that Lair is the best next-gen game so far in terms of art direction? and no i'm not joking. Their creature designs are really amazing
MetatronM said:I don't understand what they did with Lair visually. Some shots and views of it look INCREDIBLE, and others look like absolute garbage. I don't get it.

drohne said:how exactly do you manage to post with the new yorker, the atlantic monthly, and the new republic banging down your door
Speevy said:That wasn't called for.
No one has attacked Lair with any degree of thoughtful insight into its artistic merit, because very few on this forum have any.
Drinky Crow said:my money suggests that halverson won't pay up if the games he's tagged for greatness aren't properly treated and observed.
I don't understand how under any circumstances that third shot he posted can be considered garbage, or in fact, anything other than impressive.MetatronM said:Why do the particular screenshots you chose look like garbage then?
