Dragon Flight 101

lairguide.jpg

I'm beginning to think this curse thing surrounding Lair could be real after all. Sony sent copies of a Lair Reviewer's Guide to, well, game reviewers to instruct them on how to play the game. Lair was critically panned for its controls, a problem that the guide seeks to address by teaching its readers about the control scheme.

I'm going to give it the benefit of the doubt and say this instead: if someone knew that the controls were a problem, or that they weren't conventional enough to be handled normally, then was it that hard to include special instructions in the manual?

The cat's out of the bag, folks. This is an example of damage control that fell horribly short.
