Jacknife Posted January 28, 2005 Theres a new game coming out from the creators of unreal called pariah. Head over to pariahgame.com to check out the trailor, I don't think its on television yet. It looks to me like this game is going to rock, but I don't know about better than Doom3 ROE. Anyway, the trailor says its the next generation of first person shooters. What do you think?http://pc.gamespy.com/pc/pariah/574389p1.html?fromint=1 Link to an article. 0 Share this post Link to post
Kelzam Posted January 28, 2005 Every company says their game is the next big thing in it's genre. Example: Halo 2, and it sucks. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jacknife Posted January 29, 2005 I dunno, unless the game developers had mental disabilities or an extreme ego then they probably wouldn't claim something like that without really being able to back it up, after halo2 and halflife2 and doom3 took center stage in the gaming world. On an unrelated note, I don't think I've seen any screenshots for ROE. Are there any out there right now? 0 Share this post Link to post
Kelzam Posted January 29, 2005 I'm guessing you never check the front page, as it usually has links to places with screens and news. http://games.tiscali.cz/clanek/screen.asp?id=8141 Screenshots there. 0 Share this post Link to post
Coopersville Posted January 29, 2005 I looked this game up on Gamespot months ago. It does look pretty sweet, and it releases only a week after my birthday. 0 Share this post Link to post

This is not new, a FPS in 2005 is obviously going to look better than a FPS in 2004. But will the game itself be any better? Who knows, probably not. 0 Share this post Link to post

Well, I'd say in the years after Quake 1, the general public was impressed by anything 3D. The genre was young and hardware acceleration was still growing-- and so any game that featured it was praised to some extent. But in contrast... 2D games around that time were hitting their peak. You could say that we have the same expectations of 3D now than we did of 2D then. Whoops, now I've done it. I've gone and made the thread serious. 0 Share this post Link to post

Quest for the 4 Orbs, coming soon Oh, and everyone else is right. There's no way this game will be any better than Doom3 or Half Life 2, not even visually in my opinion. 0 Share this post Link to post
