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,

balliinn

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?

This is an amazing video showing you what Lair is all about. Behind the scenes video takes you to how they were able to put this game together from the ground up. By seeing this video alone, I need no demo, this game looks to have a promising future, and shows the quality these developers have put into the game. Maybe some have seen the video already, but for those who haven’t, enjoy!

@thechosenfew88

Downloading the trailer as I speak.

For some reason I am going to leave my computer just for office and college stuff.

Games = consoles.

I have always loved that you only put the disk and no worries about updates or whatever.

piqu1655  |  July 25th, 2007 at 6:36 pm

I just hope that it has support for 1080 or it will be good ole 480 frickin p for me. Please fix the upscaling problem with ps3 games soon Sony I can’t take it anymore!

omegasyde  |  July 25th, 2007 at 6:47 pm

Sweet. Is this game the signal that end s the gaming drought?

ConsistentChamp  |  July 25th, 2007 at 6:56 pm

great. is this game going to be made with Home Trophies included?

Kingofps3  |  July 25th, 2007 at 7:00 pm

**Completely off topic** When is Gran Turismo for the PSP coimng out, any clue?

Kratos_ate_Snake  |  July 25th, 2007 at 7:10 pm

If this game comes out on August, then why is there so little info on it. I like my games spoiler free, but this is ridiculous.

Only thing I can think of is that THIS GAME IS GOING TO SUCK. that is why there is no demo, and barely any info on story or anything. isn’t that what publishers do when they want to sell their bad games?

I hope I am wrong, cause this game looks awesome.

bobtheduck  |  July 25th, 2007 at 7:34 pm

May I join the buzzing crowd in echoing “DEMO!”

Of course, I’m going to buy it, demo or not. It’s just a Demo lets me save the money…

PsychoEddie  |  July 25th, 2007 at 7:34 pm

@40cal

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.

Believe it. I’ve never heard of Factor 5 and looking at their web site and the kinds of games they’ve developed to date…this game has a very high Gigli factor. In plane english it’s got the stink of rent me all over it. But, that’s just my opinion.

blizzard182  |  July 25th, 2007 at 7:36 pm

@Kratos_ate_Snake

Look at thechosenfew88’s link

http://www.gametrailers.com/player/22694.html

Download the trailer. It is great to get to know the game. Really nice. It tells the story and the gameplay.

40cal  |  July 25th, 2007 at 7:48 pm

@ thechosenfew88

Thanks for the link bro. I had not seen this one yet. Great stuff.

@PsychoEddie

I do know what Gigli means I was born in Australia. And you should also check out this trailer.

Off topic: Anyone has any info about Afrika? I mean, gameplay, release date, what thet hell is Afrika?

Gavi  |  July 25th, 2007 at 8:01 pm

Is there any chance of the Lair video that is in the Japanese store making it’s way into the other stores? It’s a great video to build up some hype for this game. I’m relived that the game has gone gold. It needed to be released in the August window, because it’s getting pretty chaotic after then and gamers’ wallet are going to be taking a battering (i.e. Warhawk, Heavenly Sword, Home, GTA IV, PES2008, GT5 Prologue, Uncharted, Haze, Unreal Tournament III).

40cal  |  July 25th, 2007 at 8:11 pm

I found a couple of previews for you.

I wish. Afrika will hopefully be at the Tokyo Game Show in about a month or so.

Rux  |  July 25th, 2007 at 8:16 pm

Thanks Ryan, I’ve had my mind set on purchasing Lair for the past few months, and I just can’t wait until August!

blizzard182  |  July 25th, 2007 at 8:19 pm

@40cal

Well, We’ll just have to wait. saw a couple of trailers and in the second one, a Jeep with some guy appears at the end.

Maybe some sort of hunter?

I don’t know. They seem to show that the life is so well recreated that sometimes I feel like it is some kind of side project like Home and you get to choose which animal you want to be and use it.

I just hope it is just not some good graphic game and has some nice features or story.

40cal  |  July 25th, 2007 at 8:25 pm

@blizzard182

Yep, me to. I showed my wife a trailer and she wants that game bad. Every time I bring up the 3 she is like “what ever happend to that Afrika game”? Come on Sony hook the info up.

If you get to pick an animal watch out 40cal just got some teeth and boy is he hungry!LOL

msd  |  July 25th, 2007 at 8:27 pm

“The gauntlet has been thrown, and North American players are getting Lair first, so don’t give that advantage away”

Um… this is the internet. The internet is not restricted to just North America. People in other countries have it too.

gmsalvation  |  July 25th, 2007 at 8:37 pm

Count me also as one of the people that will wait for a demo. The 360 just crushes the PS3 in terms of demos on almost all of their content, XBLA, and retail games. Please get with the times and start letting us try these games before shelling out $60 for them. I’ve had my PS3 since launch and still waiting to purchase my first game. Would be nice if this was it.

Beyond8D  |  July 25th, 2007 at 8:42 pm

yeahhh. I am going to buy this game the first day.

note: I have already been having reserved it for 1 year.

Sorry about my english.

HK-48  |  July 25th, 2007 at 8:44 pm

@gmsalvation

You should be thankful that you get demos at all, Wii owners don’t even get anything except for those old games! Why haven’t you got a game yet, there are plenty of good games out like Resistance, MotorStorm, and Ninja Gaiden Sigma. Plus their are good multi-platform games like Oblivion.

But to be on topic I will get this game on Day One. I wish we had a demo to whet our appetites and give us a feel for the game, oh well at least we get the Heavenly Sword Demo. Advice to those who are unsure about this game: Rent it or wait until it comes out and read reviews from sites like IGN and Gamespot.

Janos2615  |  July 25th, 2007 at 8:46 pm

Woot Day one Buy for me! I had this game preordered 3 months ago.

Great job to Sony and Factor 5, i’m eagerly waiting for some sweet dragon on dragon action!

HK-48  |  July 25th, 2007 at 8:49 pm

Oh yeah keep up the good work Sony! I like how you listen to what we want and are constantly trying to improve our PS3 experience. Lair will be an excellent start to start off the rest of this year! Then that will get even better when we get into 2008 and have tons of awesome games like Final Fantasy XIII, MGS4, Gran Turismo 5, and Little Big Planet. I can’t wait!

AGQ0105  |  July 25th, 2007 at 8:55 pm

Im looking forward to Lair but I’d love a demo to try it out!!

DarKaoZ  |  July 25th, 2007 at 9:57 pm

I just hope to see a DEMO out before the release date of Lair, I should be a great plus.

mpnjdevil  |  July 25th, 2007 at 10:14 pm

the due tomorrow or should i say today, it got canceled last month, dont tell me u guys r doing the same this month =)

Kratos_ate_Snake  |  July 25th, 2007 at 10:17 pm

@blizard182

yeah I saw that trailer day one, but that is not what I mean. I know the game looks awesome, but all I am saying is that if the game plays good then they would gladly put out a demo to show of their master piece.

this game looks awesome and is the best use of the sixaxis yet, but does it play good? is it fun? will it get repetitive? Is it a rental or a buy?

I will wait for the reviews, or better yet, that DEMO they told us about at one time.

I got my fingers crossed for this game, you know.

roadclimber  |  July 25th, 2007 at 10:32 pm

Heavenly Sword, Lair, Drake’s Fortune, Ratchet + Clank and Warhawk make me really glad i own a ps3.

That being said… it’s time to get greedy:)

Is there any way Sony can finesse ps3 versions of Bioshock, Dead Rising or Lost Planet? At the very least i hope when sequels start coming around Sony can beat on Capcom with the money stick.
(or 2k games in respect to Bio)

I did pick up Dead Rising on the 360 but somehow the game is less appealing when you get to play.. ” Run for the save point before the game freezes”

luckskywalker7  |  July 25th, 2007 at 10:40 pm

demo pls!! i would really like to try out this game before i buy it to see what it is like!

uspirit  |  July 25th, 2007 at 10:55 pm

As a loyal PLAYSTATION owner, i love any demo that come out on the network.I have every demo downloaded on my PS3. So any chance to try a game before it comes out is a major plus!!!!!!!! And a lair demo would be the bomb!!!! (it would be greatly appreciated for the executives reading this lol) Also i know you guys at SONY are listening and are already working on the XMB access during a game (Which is awesome) can’t wait for the next update!!!!!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK SONY, 2008 is looking very promosing.

StuntF50  |  July 25th, 2007 at 11:05 pm

Sony Read This

I want you to take a look at this thread:

http://www.ps3forums.com/showthread.php?p=1718412

I hope you can address the PlayStation Store issues on mainly third-party support. Today XBOX Live just received a NASCAR 08 and All-Pro Football 2K8. I want All-Pro Football 2K8 but how am I supposed to see if it’s any good? Look at that link to see the multiplatform E3 demos they received and we didn’t. I like you Sony and I don’t want you falling behind. Please, get every multiplatform demo that Live has and then get more.
