Lair Delayed

It was just last week that Sony's official PlayStation.Blog brought word that development on Lair had wrapped, noting that production was in full swing and that the PlayStation 3 exclusive would grace North American retailers on August 14th.

Such is no longer the case. Associate Producer Ryan Hamlyn just posted another update on the blog, confirming that "an extra step in QA testing to enhance the community features" has forced SCEA to push back the Factor 5-developed release until September 4th.

"Natural challenges that arose while finalizing the offline game to include key online features - such as leaderboards and medal systems - have led to the difficult choice of pushing back the release date," said Hamlyn. "We appreciate everyone's excitement and patience for the game and look forward to its release on September 4."

The delay may put Lair into direct competition with Sony's own Heavenly Sword, which, according to online retailer GameStop, is currently slated to ship on the same date.

Hmm, rather unfortunate. This didn't look like a "Must-Have" title for me, at least not on launch day. Now, it's going to be releasing the same day as Heavenly Sword.
 
actually a blessing, seeing as it so far hasn't had a good review, good time to fine tune the game.
 
I am mad that it is delayed, but it may be for its own good after reading the Game Pro Review. I am going to buy both games anyway, so no biggie.
 
They're making it so it can suck less, that's good for the PS3.
 
if they kick this game into shape, i will consider buying it :)

but since this version sucks, its definitly a game i'll have to wait for reviews before buying.

Many reviews are in, and they don't say its horrible. They're rating it like 7-8, which isn't bad...
 
well it doesn't matter if it' 7-8 or even 5 it looks like a good game to me and i would play it even if all the reviews say "the game sucks"
