Actual gameplay video from upcoming PS3 title Lair. This video recorded July 28th in Tapei shows a man playing what appears to be a final build of the game. Wether it is a demo or the full retail version is unclear but the video lets you see some of the ways you will have to manuever the sixaxis to get a your point across in this game. Enjoy.

this looks amazing - even in bad quality.

nasim6122d ago

LAIR is such an eye candy.

I am definitely getting this on DAY 1 on 14th august.

cant wait

Lightning Mr Bubbles6122d ago

EGM reviewed Lair 6.0, 5.5, 5.0, I think it's a hit or miss with Lair since the Gameplay is so Sixaxis heavy. EGM didn't like that and just gave it a shame of the month type score. I think the game will be more in the 7.0's overall. I think EGM just hates Sixaxis. If Lair fails it's gonna be because of the Sixaxis the graphics look great.

hazeblaze6122d ago

Yea and Lair has also got two 9's from other editorials.

The EGM editors likely did not get used to using the sixaxis controls... they said they were brilliant in some places and frustrating in others.

Of course, it still hasn't been proven that those reviews were even real... considering that the magazine isn't even out yet!

Ju6122d ago

and the video don't match. Even if the video quality is bad, you can see the details in the environment. The fighting scenes don't slow down a bit, the action looks intense. Even if EGM doesn't like the game, there is no reason not to respect the extraordinary visual appearance of the game (incl. its performance - except there is a huge glitch in the game which is not in the video). We'll see if the rating is fake or truth.
I think I'll get this. It's something new. And it's not a shooter (well, that alone gives a 1 minus point in a review, usually).

Huddymonster6122d ago

That rating by EGM is fake because the magazine for that game doesnt ship for another 9 days.

ShiftyLookingCow6122d ago

The graphics look great but I am hoping we can play without the sixaxis as it seems sort of "frustrating"

TheExecutive6122d ago

well, there isnt any way to play without the tilt, unless you are on the ground. It may be a little frustrating at first but i bet when you get used to it you wouldnt want it any other way.

btw... this game looks great. cant wait for this title... only a few weeks away.

timmyp536122d ago

can't wait to use the motion controls!

hotshot12376122d ago

and im sure there not gonna just focus on graphics and they know people may think that the gamplay wont be there but they will get it done. the controls look so fun. if i have the money, its a day one purchase bcuz i think the story will be good too

Top 10 Bad Games by Good Studios

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 .

Game-ur1399d ago

once Great studios getting destroyed is actually common. happened with ND and Last of Us2, Bioware and Mass Effect Andromeda/Anthem, Bungle and Destiny .

BeRich2331399d ago

Fuse should have been on that list (Insomniac Games)

Yui_Suzumiya1399d ago

Splatterhouse remake kicked ass

merryja1399d ago

I personally don't like these games.

East76lands1399d ago

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.

HarryMasonHerpderp1399d ago

Then you might like a recent sonic "sonic mania".

jaymacx1399d ago

For this Topic it says Good Studios that make bad games. Sonic Team hasn't been good in years.

How often do disappointing games get remakes

darthv721875d ago (Edited 1875d ago )

well... if disappointing movies can get remakes then why not games? some of these have really good premise but somewhat disappointing execution. In the right hands they could be great.

I quite enjoyed lair (after the patch), too human and the order 1886. I'd even add in quantum break and recore as disappointing but with a good premise.

gangsta_red1875d ago

"well... if disappointing movies can get remakes then why not games?"

But how many disappointing movies actually get those? I'm still waiting for a remake of Howard the Duck.

darthv721875d ago

^nothing disappointing about howard the duck. It is cheesy 80's goodness.

gangsta_red1875d ago

When you're right, you're right.

rainslacker1875d ago

@Gangsta

Wasn't there a rumor that they were looking at making another Howard the Duck? He had a cameo in GoTG2.

Love that movie for how bad it was. That and Garbage Pail Kids.

DrumBeat1875d ago

The Order was a fresh experience. Not the most compelling game, but I didn't want to put it down, and platted it. Good for what it was.

Quantum was something different as well, but a little less fun to actually play, imo. The 'acting' was done in a cheese factory too. Completed one path and never returned to it.

pietro12121875d ago (Edited 1875d ago )

FFXIV was already remade, and it's probably the beat thing Square has put out in years.

notachance1875d ago

yes, I was giving an example of disappointing games remade to be a great game

thorstein1875d ago

Every time sites need clicks. Just look at the obligatory: i wAnT cLIcKs tEh OrDer 1886 pIcTUrE.

JonathanHarris1875d ago

It's really not super often, but it does happen!

Mostly we see cult favorites come back around but in the recent case of Shaq-Fu we really saw a truly awful game see new life (not great life but at least new).

It's something I'd love to see a lot more of.

Thanks for reading my article!

NarutoFox1875d ago

Too Human yeah I remember that game smh😂

Inzo1875d ago

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.

Dreamcatcher451875d ago

Problem was the repetitive boss fights. I liked the gunplay, cover system and somewhat the story.

hulk_bash19871875d ago (Edited 1875d ago )

It did have fantastic atmosphere, I'll give you that. But gameplay pretty much played out like short gunfire segments interlaced with walking/sneaking + QTE events. Gameplay was the weakest point of The Order because RAD prioritized world building and graphical detail. Ut was disappointing because it didnt live up to the massive potential it haf. If they were given another shot at a sequel, I hope they can learn from their mistakes.

notachance1875d ago

gameplay was meh but the world had potential, in my ideal world it'd have Mass Effect kind of gameplay

Prubar1875d ago

I waited till The Order was discounted and went in with certain expectations and wasn’t disappointed. Just like Quantum Break. Great concept just needed a little extra meat on the bones.

rainslacker1875d ago

I had high hopes before it released. They were curbed some by the early previews, and while I found faults with the game, and it was obviously released unfinished, I still enjoyed it. The lore, acting, graphics, and world itself were excellent.

JonathanHarris1875d ago

I agree that it had some awesome atmosphere and the gameplay wasn't awful, but that potential is exactly why I put it on this list. I actually loved playing the game (same as some of the other games I put on this list such as Army of Two) But I would just love to see what could happen if it fulfilled some of that potential, ya know? Could have had the next incredible Sony franchise to rival God of War.

Thanks for reading my article!

TheEnigma3131875d ago

The order should have had a sequel. The first one wasn't bad just needed a few tweaks.

robtion1875d ago

I would love a sequel to The Order. It is still a great game.

Lair had a great concept and could be amazing with the current technology available. A Lair-like ps5 game could be incredible.

15 Worst PlayStation Exclusive Games of All Time

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.

Mr Pumblechook2162d ago

When GamingBolt have to dig up PS1 & PS2 games you know Sony is doing something right.

PygmelionHunter2162d ago

The list is about the worst Playstation exclusives games OF ALL TIME...

Why wouldn’t they include PS1 and PS2 games?

Prince_TFK2162d ago

That’s right, only PS4 games should be on the list of the worst Sony exclusive games of all time. /s

Dragonscale2162d ago

As much as I like PlayStation, there are plenty of stinkers just like on all platforms tbh.

NonShinyGoose2162d ago

RR on Vita made the list, not the PSP version. RR on Vita was severely lacking content.

Knushwood Butt2162d ago

They tried something new and it failed.

The initial price point was low but a large amount of content was locked behing DLC

These days you often pay full price up front and get the same concept.

Darkwatchman2162d ago (Edited 2162d ago )

Didn’t the list just have ridge racer on Vita? Because the Vita ridge racer was a dumpster fire at $40 with next to no cars or tracks. It was such an incomplete experience. As the article states, it felt more like a full priced demo than an actual game. Psp ridge racer had so much more to it.

SierraGuy2162d ago (Edited 2162d ago )

All early ridge racers had next to no cars...game was great because of its graphics, controls, fun factor. Nothing could touch it on PS1.

thank you for the list. I believe he should listed PSVR titles as VR....

yeahright22162d ago

I love when people do this to sites that try to artificially up their clicks by forcing one click per entry. But I will say maybe let's leave off the first entry so they get the one click. Both so N4g gets whatever they're due for pushing traffic to their site and to send a message to the site that you only get one click.

Well everybody should have gamingbolt blocked anyways.
