You remember the big stink the SIXAXIS control scheme of PS3’sLaircaused, don’t you? Gamers and reviewers were frusturated with the motion-only control, as analog control was not provided as an option. When the title was rated by the gaming press, it recieved mostly negative marks because of this lack of control options.

Now it seems that analog control is coming in an update.IGNsays that Sony Japan provided first details today on a free update forLair, and analog control is listed among the update items. On top of this, DualShock 3 rumble support and a targeting icon have been added.
