Lair - updated hands-on

PS3 Preview | Lair

It's been a few months since we got our last close-up look at Lair, the dragon-riding simulation that some thought would launch alongside the PS3, and news on the game has been sparse since then. But with its July release date drawing closer, we've gotten another crack at its fiery, high-flying action, and this time we've come away with a much better idea of what's lying in wait. We also got a few more plot details; Lair, as you may or may not already know, is the story of Rohn, a ...

Lair - hands-on

PS3 Preview | Lair

After months of nothing but a few teaser shots and an E3 trailer, we finally had a chance to sink our fangs into the dragon-combat sim Lair. Due out sometime next year, it casts players as an armored, dragon-riding knight charged with defending his kingdom against an army that uses plenty of its own monsters as weapons. Our time with the game started out with a brief tutorial, and we had a little time to marvel at the beautifully detailed scenery and leathery wings of our dragon as we flew ...

The Last Remnant - first look

PS3 Preview | The Last Remnant

According to Yoichi Wada, the president of Square Enix, The Last Remnant is "A Square Enix RPG for the world." It's going to be "the cornerstone of the Square Enix global strategy - a completely new franchise designed to take full advantage of next generation platforms." This is a new RPG for both the 360 and the PS3. Though they didn't say what platform the demo was taking place, it appeared to be 360 - but it was up and running for the demo. And most exciting, though they won't say when it ...

Legendary - hands-on

PS3 Preview | Legendary

Poor, poor Charles Deckard. As the unenviable thief duped into opening Pandora’s Box, he’s now the unlucky bastard caught between a plague of mythical hell-beasts and two ancient, warring factions that wish to control them. A battle unlike any other is now upon us all. Minotaurs, werewolves and golems: oh my! In our last hands-on with Legendary (formerly Legendary: The Box), we bravely fought bloodthirsty griffins in the streets of ...

Legendary: The Box - hands-on

PS3 Preview | Legendary

According to legends of the ancient Greeks, who gave the West everything from Aristotle to organized orgies, Zeus decided to give mankind the first woman, Pandora. It was meant to be a punishment to us all for stealing fire from the gods. But we're glad Mr. Lightning bolts gave us Pandora and her box of evils. If he didn't, we wouldn't have Legendary: The Box to look forward to. You'll start off as Charles Decker, an art thief who unwittingly winds up opening Pandora 's Box in the New York ...

Legendary: The Box

PS3 Preview | Legendary

The premise behind Legendary: The Box is so simple that we're beating our heads against the wall for not thinking of it first. Take the balls-to-the-wall rush of Call of Duty, mix it with mythological creatures like golems, griffons and werewolves, then pump it full of chunky rock guitar riffs that pound through the speakers like a summer blockbuster. If that setup doesn't pique your interest, then move along to your $20 budget checkers game and make room for some real gamers starving for a ...

LEGO Batman - updated impressions

PS3 Preview | LEGO Batman: The Videogame

We've been seeing a lot of LEGO Batman recently, mostly in the form of new screens, but it wasn't until this week's Game Developer's Conference that we got to see the plasticized caped crusader in action. And we saw a lot, from the suits and gadgets that Batman and Robin will use to fight crime, to the missions where you'll take control of some of their arch-nemeses and go toe-to-toe against Gotham's finest. And although we can't yet say how it ...

LEGO Batman: The Videogame

PS3 Preview | LEGO Batman: The Videogame

Few franchises are as ripe for a LEGO once-over as Batman. Unlike his fellow comic book chums, Bruce Wayne is a truly self-made hero. Born with no Kryptonian spoon in his mouth and avoiding radioactive daddy-long-legs, his strength stems from determination and smarts. The gazillion bucks inherited from slain Papa Wayne didn’t hurt either. No surprise then, that the self-made man and the make-it-yourself brick sensation meld together so ...

LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures

PS3 Preview | LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures

The decision to immortalise the wise-cracking hero in LEGO form is clear: the Indiana Jones films are almost as iconic as Star Wars, and their cheeky humour runs parallel with the tongue-in-cheek approach of the recent LEGO games. With the building blocks already in place from the Star Wars games, it hasn’t been too difficult for Traveller’s Tales to whip the engine into shape and recreate the original three films in a style fit for ...
