Lair on the PSP? Pictures of it were posted in the official PlayStation forums earlier, and yes, we know what you’re thinking: it sounds fake. And honestly, some of us even thought that it looked Photoshopped at first. But y’know what? It’s not!
Dozens of people have now also confirmed (and re-confirmed) that Lair works via Remote Play on the PSP! Now before you go all frothing at the mouth, we clarify: the PSP doesn’t run the actual game; it’s on Remote Play. It’s being run on the PS3, but the game is being controlled on the PSP. There’s a difference.
Of course, the control framework isn’t the same, and the game won’t handle as it would on the PS3. For example, dragons are controllable with the PSP’s nub, but due to the lack of R2 or L2, you won’t be able to land.
Though you definitely won’t be able to finish the game on the PSP, if anything, this is still cool. Something you can show your friends to geekgasm over. The way some see it, it could actually simply be an Easter Egg that Factor 5 has put into the game for the fans. Despite this, a lot of other people are already spouting out all of these implications of future titles.
Props to the first person who can get a video of this up on YouTube!
(On a related note, other people have tried Warhawk and GRAW 2 on Remote Play too, but sadly, it doesn’t work.)
*UPDATE* Props to AngelsPlague for posting a video on YouTube!
In the shaky cam video, he showcases… what else? Lair on the PSP via Remote Play. Check out the video after the jump and believe.
