The bear of bad news
LAIR on PS3 was pure industry genius why did they break the game with sixaxis and designs what other games are like this but good my friends?

I was a massive LAIR defender back in the day... It was the first game my cousin worked on so I had a LAIR t-shirt and beat the game multiple times. Maybe I'm the only person in the whole world who beat that shit?
As for similar games without fucked controls, I played the shit out of this one

I LOVE the game but it not game you should be playing if you want good dragon riding game.
Drakengard 3 is ONLY good for people who crazy die hard fan of Drakengard/Nier series and no one else.

I don’t think anything’s really like Lair.
Could’ve been something special, if not for the shitty forced control scheme.

Orta is the best. It was my fav game on the original Xbox.

It wasn't just about the sixaxis controls. They patched the normal analog controls in later and the game was still pretty shit. It runs absolutely terrible on PS3. The biggest tragedy is that it was a game that essentially killed Factor 5.
If you want a better game made by these guys then play Rogue Squadron 2.

The story is weird and absurd. I’m only recommending the dragon flying part and the combat.

The story is the best part about the dragon flying section suffered because very poor performance.

Lair was bad, flawed, weird, and way too ambitious for the hardware... but a pretty good idea.
This is the sort of game that should be remade, not 10/10 masterpieces that everyone loves and are still widely played today.

I just bought this game complete in box for $5.99. Pretty excited to play it. I can usually handle shitty controls and jank better than most people.

Best I can do for you is this very old picture of me wearing it (mid vodka shot even). It's a pretty cool t-shirt actually, now that I'm seeing it again.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Isn't that essentially Ace Combat ? Ace Combat 7 is pretty good if you're looking strictly for a flight combat game.

Lair and Haze were the "Xbox is DOA" games back then. Sony was just making so many bad decisions too fast back then and the reactions were priceless.
I think sixaxis was arguably the biggest mistake Sony made, at least they should have made it options with some key games later instead of forcing it as the primary control method. Screw heavy Rain and those early Six Axis controllers that barely worked and couldn't handle the game.

It did. I meant to play it after that, but never got around to it. Always some other game to play instead.
It's interesting because Sony basically forced Factor 5 to implement SIXAXIS controls because there were no other games using it. Total disaster, thanks Sony.
