Retired Lair (Factor 5 / Sony Computer Entertainment, 2007)
I got about halfway through this game that infamously has a reputation of being the worst PS3-exclusive game ever made and I can confirm that it lives up to that reputation. The game looks terrible at any resolution, controls miserably with any control scheme (six-axis or not), performs like a pre-alpha build (frame rate dips to 15 FPS at times even if you run the PS3 in standard definition and never reaches > 30 outside of the game menus) and even if all these problems didn't exist would still be a somewhat cheesy and slightly boring flying action game.
I decided to call it quits after it managed to hard-lock my PS3 for the second time while pushing its fans to a higher RPM than any other game I ever ran on it, because I really would like my unit to last until I can get through my small collection of games that remain PS3 exclusive to this day.
Fans of old-school epic Hollywood scoring might enjoy the original soundtrack by John Debney.
1/5
