Given all the content and interest here on Lair, I figured you guys would also be interested to hear that the North American version of Lair has completed its development and is now in manufacturing! That means that we are on track for our August 14 release date. It goes without saying that we’re eager to get this out to those of you that have been waiting so patiently (or not!) for it to arrive. Considering the new PS3 price and now Lair, hopefully there’s even more of a reason to scoop up a PS3 if you haven’t already!
For us, there’s still a bit of work to do, as we have localization to finish up for Europe, Japan, Korea, and more, which will all hopefully follow very soon. Once those are out, our leaderboards will truly be global, and then we can see once and for all who the best Lair players are out there! The gauntlet has been thrown, and North American players are getting Lair first, so don’t give that advantage away…
We also have some great updates for the official Lair site that will be live soon, so keep an eye out for those …

Oh well, its still gonna be worth it.
I look at it this way, the more it gets delayed, the better it’s going to be.
A demo would be appreciated, but I am still gonna buy it as soon as I can scrape the cash for it.
GO LAIR!!!!!!!!

I hate how we have to wait for others languages for Europe especially in the UK. I’ll import this as will many Uk gamers so if you have lower sales in the UK it’s probably because we’ve bought it from the US. So glad the PS3 is multi regional for games.

Hopefully a demo will be released. I know its tough on developers though.
However, new IPs like HS, Lair, and Uncharted really need this extra exposure. Just looking at HS, you can see that its pretty evident the kind of hype and interest demos of AAA calibur can generate.

I personally can not believe that some people are actually not going to pick this game up. Factor 5 has never made a game not worth buying. All of the Rouge Squadron games where excellent.
Have you guys and gals not downloaded the trailers off of the PSN? The grand scale of the environments look astounding, the game play is revolutionary, and the story line appears to be epic. I would hate for people/gamers to miss out on a wonderful gaming experience because there not into dragons.
I am not into dragons myself, yet have had this title paid in full for about nine months. Also if Sony puts there name on a title it will be good. They have never let me down in the last thirteen plus years the Playstation brand has been a large part of my gaming world.
Thank you, Factor 5 for this awesome game, Aug. 15th cant come soon enough.

I honestly did not like FPS in a console but after playing and finishing Resistance (I was in bed for two days so I ad nothing better to do xD) I must say I loooove them.

Get both. But if I had to choose I would say get Rainbow 6. The online multi is sweet. Ninja GS is much better looking and more challenging. Oh! Get both.

@thechosenfew88
I would say Rainbow 6 too. NG is a bit monotonous TO ME. I had it on the “old” console and it is the same on both consoles.
I see RB6 as a more deep game and NG as a bit more fun if you don’t mind the hack and slash type game.
Buy Resistance. Hell of a game.
131

Thanks bro. I bought Resistance already. Heck of a game I would have to agree. I’m watching the RB6 video review on IGN, looks pretty nice, and the multiplayer sounds like alot of fun.

@ both of you. I bought RB6 and it its a good game, but Resistanceis far far better. If i were you I would get LAIR before Vegas.
Anyways. Thank you SONY for all this great content. Heavenly sword demo, Update, etc.
I dont know why so many people dammand stuff, like in game XMB. They need to just wait for a little bit and stop breathing down your guys backs. I know you that Sony is and has been working hard to make better features, and games. Thank you.
Also LAIR will be sweet!

@NateTheGreat1
Some site did a review on the game and said the only downfall was the menu was a little confusing at first.
But the big point they made is that it had a TON of replay value, like online, unlockable wepons, armor, new dragons, etc. , AFTER the game was beaten the first time.
So I must disagree.

Sony,
I’m just going to remind you guys about the request for divx/xvid/mkv support in the PS3. I have a quite a few mkv files at 1080p that I would like to watch via my big screen TV, instead of my 19″ LCD monitor.
Thanks,

You guys should setup a system like Dell’s Idea Storm system to track your customer’s biggest requests and allow the customers to vote on what they’d like to see in new games and firmware releases. It would save a lot of time from reading through hundreds of comments.
Oh, and with an 80gb drive hitting the US market and no Home items for us unlucky individuals that haven’t been invited to the beta, most fill their drives with music, video, etc. How about instead of sorting, you allow us to create a folder hierarchy so I don’t have to scan through hundreds(or thousands) of songs to find the music I want to listen to. The media server connection supports this type of sorting/grouping, why doesn’t the ps3 have it in it’s own file system?
