*bumping for update*
This is interesting. Not sure if it's true or not... but if it is, maybe some reviewers should pick it up again after they update with the new 1.92 firmware. For the record, Lair's official street date was tomorrow... 9/5. The firmware was released this morning. EB broke street date. This could be the actual reason for the delay.
Quote: | My best friend works for PC WORLD magazine in nyc and they received a copy of lair august 1st. That version of lair had horrible response with the ps3 system because LAIR was made to work with the updated bluetooth software controls that will be found in a future update to the firmware of the PS3. Factor 5 assumed that this firmware would be released by the original august 14 release date. Once FACTOR 5 realized that wasn't the case because of early bad reviews. they pulled the street date and moved it to sept 5. My buddy took home the august 1st version that was originally sent to them and we compared it to the retail version that i picked up last week at gamestop. and the difference is like night and day. All these reviews have to represent the august 1st copy unless stated in the review that they went out to a store and purchased a copy to review. PC WORLD magazine was smart enough to wait for the retail version before any reviews would start. I hope this helps clarrify any carzyness about why the reviews do not match how well the game actually responds and plays. |
this is another post of his...
Quote: | for official documentation check next months copy of PC WORLD documentation.
personally i love this game and had both versions, the august 1st version sent to PC WORLD magazine and the august 29 retail version from gamestop running side by side. i played the retail and my buddy played the aug 1st and we compared both side by side. and the august 1st has all the problems that the reviewers point out. however the new retail version that has been changed to fit the current bluetooth control software and not the new bluetooth control software does not enhibit any of those problems exept for minor chugs in gameplay here and there. if you want official documentation wait for next months copy of PC WORLD magazine. My buddy is in the process of writing it now and he does include about early reviews using the 1st copy of lair with the new bluetooth software in mind. Also this tuesday the new bluetooth software will be released 1.92, my buddy just told me that. i hope this helps people understand why lair has as of right now, bad reviews. |
