Eggebrecht on Lair: Hot Coffee, motion-controlled dragons |
Is it another controversy waiting to happen? In an interview by MTV, Julian Eggebrecht, head of development at Factor 5, revealed an unlockable content in Lair that he wanted to call "Hot Coffee." It's old news, yeah, but Sony and Factor 5 didn't want to call it that.When you put in the cheat code - which is 686F7420636F66666565 for the curious - you get... Well, you'll have to watch the video at the end of the article to find out for yourself. It's hot.
Eggebrecht also commented on the motion-only dragon controls in Lair, which some people didn't take to. He explains that it's not perfect, and even he can't get some moves all the time, but that it's the inherent nature of motion-controlled games (even the Wii's) to not always be able to recognize "ever-varied gestures":
The Sixaxis motion control itself feels a lot more organic and free-form than the rigid controls of other flight games and does much better for casual players, as we saw in focus tests. It does seem to alienate some reviewers who are at the top of the hard-core crowd and seem to have a passionate hate for all things motion, be it ‘Wii Sports’ with sometimes absurdly low scores for what might become the defining game of this generation, or ‘Lair’ as their newest poster child of evil. It’s an unfortunate development that, if the players themselves listen too much to the motion-hatred message, will divide the gaming community. Our potential for growth as an art form for the mainstream is in the easier-to-access control schemes that might be less precise but a lot of fun.
Now on to the Hot Coffee video!

Congrats Isaac. You're our new Paris Hilton. (snicker)
that's hot.
wonder how that would look on xbox360!
i'm guessing more or less the same
that cup just got skeeted on
jack thompson = owned
The game would seuly look the same, devs are new to the ps3 and new to the x360 too. The 1st ps3 second gen game will surely be mgs4 since mgs always had the best ps2 graphics. For the x360 I really don't know. Assassin's creed for x/ps will maybe be a next gen style of graphics but I'm not too sure about it, the graphics I saw are cool but not out of the ordinary. anyways
The only problem is that the 360 can't draw the entire level's distance at once like the ps3 can..... the graphics I don't think the 360 could take but hey I can't prove that...... It really does look better than gears of war though. Oh, and the game takes 25 gig's of compressed data so if this was on the 360, that's alot of dvds.
that wasn't overly funny. (maybe it was to the sort of people who would actually buy a dragon game.) the time for that joke has come and gone.
is it even supposed to be funny?
"The only problem is that the 360 can't draw the entire level's distance at once like the ps3 can" Of course it can. The only issue for the 360 is storage space for the game's TOTAL content, but in terms of what you see on screen, it can be achieved on the 360 by a dev who has invested as much time on the 360 as Factor 5 have on the PS3.
1. give some content with the title "hot coffee" 2. watch the reactions of the pervs at the fappable content 3. ???? 4. PROFIT!
Good thing they got lots of storage space on those blu-ray discs to hold stupid crap like this. Its bad enough that Lair is one mediocre game - but this is just stupid.
They could have spent that time improving the controls. Or making other control options at least!
