The "full" game is playable in this manner, although some actions can't be performed on the PSP's control scheme, making some parts of the dragon romp impassable. Video proof embedded after the break.

The word "Half-Assed" comes into mind.
Really this is freaking useless,why in the hell you would want to play Lair in the PSP having the PS3 near?,I mean if the PSP controls were better but it doensn't have the R2,L2 buttons.
Also it only works having a Ps3 near so as I said,you have the PS3 near.
PSP to Ps3 I understand but Ps3 to PSP?,What for?.

Word on the street you can play Lair on the PSP from anywhere you can get an internet connection. As long as the game is in your PS3 at home.
This is only the begining, I'm sure the ultimate goal is to make most if not all PS3 games playable on the PSP.
Remember when I told you guys this was gonna happen at the PS3s launch? I did.

Remote play allows you to play games on your ps3 via a psp through wi-fi....you don't have to be near it, you could be at work or anywhere provided you have wi-fi internet access.
I think that sums it up?

You can acces your PS3 Remote Play function via the internet, so no... you dont have to be near the PS3.
And yes, it isn't really that usefull (that is why Sony didn't even promote it), but it's still better to have it than not to.
Now if Sony would be promoting the title for having such an "extra", I would tell them to either implement things that work 100%, or just let it be.

I don't know about you guys, but the only time I've seen a Wi-Fi hotspot was at a McDonalds a billion miles from my home.
Q: Does the PS3 have to be on? Or does it go on automatically when you try to connect to it with your PS3?
This could be pretty cool, specially for RPG's, doing some grinding while at school (could bring Wi-Fi usb dongle and connect to any PC) =)

“I’m sure in some planet your strategy is considered powerful but your weakling is, this is Earth”.
Basically to play lair you need a Wi-fi connection and your Ps3 at home must be turned on I guess.
Ok some questions:
In order to play lair in the Ps3 someone must be in the house because Who is going to be so stupid to leave their house on a vacation and leave the Ps3 turn on?, now If someone wants to play lair in the same PS3 what? ,Do they need to take you out of the game or both persons can play Lair at the same time in different levels?.

Sony has already mentioned they are implementing a 'Wake on Lan' function so that you can wake up your PS3 remotely.
I don't think its been implemented yet but it has been promised.

"or, more likely you're just wanting to play the game with an analog stick instead of the much-maligned motion controls"
Apparently some of the peeps at GAF claim you can use a wired USB pad to get analog control as well.

I haven't had a chance to try this myself yet, so I can't comment on its veracity or if it will work with other wireless non-SIXAXIS PS3 controllers.

That's a really, really cool feature. I don't have a PSP or PS3, but anyone who denies that it's nifty is a monster of epic proportions. Now all they need to do is use this feature for games that aren't getting critically panned and we'll be good to go~

This feature would be better if you could play a better game on it. Oh wait, you can't because all PlayStation games suck lololol

Because all of a sudden MSX is a powerhouse in the console world and history. That's like saying the Hyper Scan isn't a seventh generation console.

Funny how this "Sony Platform" of Night Elve's actually ran operating system made by Microsoft.
...not to mention that it was a standard - like several people have already pointed out, and Sony wasn't particularly big player in it. But hey, this is the Internet, who needs facts. :)

I wasn't saying it's gonna fail even if it sounded like it. MGS is an established franchise, one that I've loved since I demoed MGS on PS1. MGS4, at least to me, is looking a bit weird with the flying metal cows, but when has MGS not been over the top? It might be worth it for me to get a PS3, just because I love MGS so much, but 600$ might not be worth it.

Nintendo Fanboys sound like Luddites everytime something cool comes out thats not on a nintendo system.
I hope you guys have fun slowing the advancement of the games industry and possibly setting another crash in motion. Maybe when thats over you'll go away.

People don't like Lair.
There's only one explanation for this... they're Nintendo fanboys! I mean, only Nintendo fanboys would be able to hate on such a GREAT title like Lair.
