Wow Europe gets left behind again. What a big surprise! NOT

Demo first plz :)

Erm not too sure this story is acurate actually. I live in Europe, the UK to be precise  and I've seen plenty of copies of LAIR in branches of HMV, Game and Gamestop. Not to mention my local branch of Woolies. All priced up and ready to be sold I thought. I'll check it out but I think this story is false.

@ bluesuedeshoes. I think the UK usaly gets games & stuf earlier then the rest of Europe, so I dont think the delay effects you

who cares this game looks so bad!!!!!

I would give this game a miss. I played it with my Sister who lives in NY and I hated it.

Some people can get some enjoyment out of Lair but I cant - Its not a very good game.

woooow we are left behinde/lets hope we end up getting a better game then US,like the abality to use analog sticks and online and extra stuff :) this game is bbeen out for quite some time in US.

In this century and next generation of programming I find delays like this unacceptable! Maybe a lag of one month (max) release from the US to the rest of the world wouldn't be too bad (with the exception of Japanese games that need language translations, of course!). But come on now, it may be a bad game but what would the reason be for a late delay? Are they improving the gameplay or somehow making it better? I can't see this game being popular in the UK, Europe and definitely not in Australia! We'd rather be rockin' or shootin'.

i really hope for this hame top be somehow remade and they fix the controlling and frame rate issues on the europian release!! if i was song i would release it in europe only when its ready and no one will complain about the controls, and i think they should make an option to use the analog!! personally if the motion sensing is good then i will choose that other wise the analog!!

my copy was dispatched from amazon yesterday :S. i dont think this is true

What? I though this game was out a long time ago!

psn id: gingo.... you never know they might be implementing a cohice to use analog sticks for the european version..... nah that would be just too awesome

jesus this game is gonna sell so bad in europe with all the bad reviews

We havent even gotten a demo in the US yet and it really needs one to convince people it's not as bad as some people say. Hopefully the delay has something to do with tightening up the gameplay in a patch that the US will get too so that it's undeserved reputation can be fixed.

I live in europe and i already have this game and its been out for some time now so what is this about ?? oh and the reviews don't ever read gamespot or IGN or GT for what i have been hearing MS has been paying sites to put there games high and any other like wii or ps3 low only sometimes not all the time but im sure that Lair is not a 4.5 i would say a 8 or 8.5 no higher then that but about the unable to play it that is not true like i said i have the game and its been out sometime now here in europe aswell the game is playable it works fine you just need to learn how to play something that maybe the reviewers are not good at.

i own all 3 Consoles im not trying to say that everything is not true but for what i have seen it is if not you go and see if any ps3 game that is out has a 9 or 10 and call of duty 4 does not count that is only one what about ROFM a 8 0_0

This story is false, I live in the Netherlands and I saw lair in stores today.......they had plenty of them.

my god what a load of bull!!! MS do not pay game sites to give bad reviews, neither do sony nor nintendo. i can't believe the paraniod cr@p that some of you spout!!! sometimes a great game will get one or two bad reviews and sometimes a bad game will get one or two good reviews just like lair did!

i dont think anyone is likely to miss this much...

Hopefully they are working out the little quirks that made it into the us version,  with that being said LAIR was a great game for me, i went a played it with an open mind and actually learnt the control and it work just fine for me.

Just been to Tesco and there a few copies there.

Its supposed to be complete crap anyways...

I 'm very curious about this game. I'm might get it second hand from amazon some time later. I don't believe it is as bad as people say. At least it seems to have great visuals...

Seriously people stop saying the game is bad if you can't say why...

Not really sure if the reviews will be any better about this game in the EU. We will see.

why would anyone wanna buy lair?

why would anyone wanna buy lair?

Adding better sixaxis controls and the option to use analog would really help.

Why are somethings late to come to Europe? I mean Lair already came out for the U.S.!

Uh...really? I was at Tesco in Bathgate today getting some stuff and they were selling it...was gonna pick it up but even at £34.97 (i think) it's still too much for a "meh" game...however, if you're not too sure, nip to your local Tesco and have a look, you might get lucky.

Having said that, it clearly shows that Sony have already shipped the game they've just changed the release date so it doesn't clash with too many big name games (Assassins Creed, Lego Star Wars, Smackdown) now all it has to contend with is Kane & Lynch (not gonna buy for a while due to the "no online co-op") and Need for Speed...

Right I've phoned around a few stores in the UK and contacted a few friends in Europe I know, France, Holland, Sweeden, Spain, Itally, Germany AND Great Britain ALL have Lair currently on their shelves. Their is NO disk printing error at all with regards to age certification in Great Britain, as confirmed by my local Game store. In short this story is unmitigated rubbish, complete tripe, false, not true, lies or worse for any journalist just not researched properly or dare I say at all. Very poor.
