Remember that gameplay video with the flying? Remember how SLOW they were? Sixaxis control is gonna suck because of that, especially since you have to continually flap, and when you do, you gain altitude and lose altitude, ect ect.

Anyone who's played Lair with Sixaxis will know what I'm talking about.

I suppose the best console for DotD would be the Xbox, huh?

it all depends on how well they use the sixaxis controller. and also in lair, you could turn it off if you wanted.

I know from a credible source that DotD has optional Sixaxis. Unless this game has Lair's equal of the Darklands Training area, I ain't gonna be bothered with Sixaxis, and I'm damn good at it except for dashing. XD

Probably not; the Glitch Box is an insult to the gaming world; it F---ING RUNS ON DVDs.

It wasn't like that when Lair was first out; now you can buy the game and have that option, or you can download it if you bought it earlier on.

I downloaded the thing for the two other dragons (or is it three? Because there's a damn CAR XD (look around for it)).

The PS3 has six motion sensing things in it, thus Sixaxis.

Sixaxis and Wii motion is different; you do EVERYTHING with motion in Wii games (or damn near), and Sixaxis is only what games have it programmed into them (like Lair). Flying will probably suck for the Wii version, considering all the motion control...

Glitch Box is WORSE than the original Xbox! XD I absolutly love the Xbox because of it's hardware, but I'm a hardcore Sony fan, so I probably won't have an Xbox very soon, and NEVER a Glitch Box.

I'd rather not have Sixaxis control in this. Using motion just ruins the game altogether (evidenced by the poor motion ability in TEN).

I haven't used the Sixaxis stuff yet... I have only had my PS3 for 2 days. O.o None of my games do it...

I was looking forward to motion stuff. Though, I have to say, they do fly pretty slowly... There should be some sort of.... Speed control. smilie

I was playing StD on my PS3... The vibration stuff was weak. Is there a setting..? Or is it because I was playing a PS game?

Wow, congrats on the PS3. What model? 60 or 80?

XD

PS game thing; it also seems weak if the vibration doesn't last long. In Lair, the level Breaking the Ice has a crap load of balistica (fires LOTS of arrows at you) and when they're all firing in close to the same time but not exactly and you're hit for like, 20 seconds straight, not only does the dragon roar with irritance, but the Dual Shock 3 controller distracts you from it. All you wanna do is slam the controller down because your hands are shaking as well. XD

Had to settle for an 80gb. >.< Long story...

We rang up EB Games and by a stroke of luck, they had just got in a secondhand PS3... And it was a 60gb. I was hyper the whole car drive. XD WE got there and picked out a PS3 game. Sonic... Then, when we asked about it, (we had reserved it) they said "Oh, we can't sell it. We have to wipe the hardrive just in case. When we plugged it in to our TV, we got no picture."

So, we had drove the whole way.... We settled for an 80gb... But, we did get a game, the console, and an extra controller for a better price than JUST the 60gb.

So maybe there was something wrong with their TV? xP

I saw Lair in Target today. Only $50! I was expecting it to be much more expensive. XD

I like vibrations! XD If I had surround sound and a HD TV (yesh, my current one FAILS!) it would be awesome. *.*

Sixaxis is actually fun in Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction. There's a level where you have to use Clank to fly over this Dinosaur infested planet, and if you complete the level, you can free fly around with the sixaxis on or off (more fun with on) and collect a lot of litharian souls for bolts.

You guys are thinking of the Wii. Stick controllers= fail.

60's are the only backwards compatible PAL console... Wiki have a good chart on it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P..._configurations
Wait a sec... 160gb? O.O

You lucky NTSCers get a BC 80gb. xP And the fact that 60's aren't being made anymore makes them uber rare. They can be over $1000 on Ebay. *wince* You get more USB ports too. WHY SONY?! WHY?!

Its simple, just don't use the Sixaxis
