baronofhell Posted July 17, 2005 I was at best buy yesterday and I nearly bought this game, but I don't know much about it. It looks pretty good, but I need some more to go on. I read some reviews and they pretty much gave it an average rating overall. But they did say the graphics are really nice. Any comments? 0 Share this post Link to post
Quast Posted July 17, 2005 I played the demo and thought it was fucking lame. 0 Share this post Link to post
baronofhell Posted July 17, 2005 I heard the demo didn't do the game justice. Someone who played the game at e3 last year had a much better experience than with the demo. I probably won't get it, I bought Area 51 a couple of weeks ago for the pc and that was one lame ass game. Don't wanna make the same mistake with Pariah. 0 Share this post Link to post
SyntherAugustus Posted July 17, 2005 It looked good until the reviews started to be as mixed as unreal 2. 0 Share this post Link to post
baronofhell Posted July 17, 2005 hmmmm...I wasn't really impressed with unreal2. 0 Share this post Link to post
SulfurOccult Posted July 17, 2005 i didn't like the demo either. the weapons were all very uninteresting. and that one weapon that puts little distortions in your view was annoying as hell. 0 Share this post Link to post
baronofhell Posted July 18, 2005 Ok, forget about Pariah, I'll wait for quake4!! Something else, I'm looking to rent some good thriller/horror movies tonight, any suggestions? I rely on word of mouth when it comes to movies as well as games, reading the back of the box is completely unreliable. Thankx!!! 0 Share this post Link to post
Snarboo Posted July 18, 2005 I've heard some reviews for Pariah describe it as being even more mediocre than Unreal 2, so I don't think I'd buy the game until it's in the bargain bin. 0 Share this post Link to post
AirRaid Posted July 18, 2005 Pariah isn't worth the paper it's printed on. Some of the things are kinda OK, but there's so many things done badly/wrong that just make it horrid to play after a while. For instance the Vehicle controls. You have a buggy with a gun on it. To aim the gun, you use the mouse. This seems OK. However the only way you can STEER is with the mouse. This means if you wanna move, you can't aim, and if you wanna shoot something you have to stand still. Utterly ridiculous. 0 Share this post Link to post
Udderdude Posted July 18, 2005 Get Area 51 instead. :P Project Snowblind isn't too bad either. 0 Share this post Link to post
baronofhell Posted July 19, 2005 I already have area 51, and imo, that game sucks camel ass. Project snowblind? Hmmm.....is that a tactical shooter? If so, nevermind, I don't like using my brain to much.. 0 Share this post Link to post
pilottobombadier Posted July 20, 2005 Project Snowblind is slightly tactical, plus it borrows a few ideas (loosely) from Deus Ex. It's interesting. I traded it because I can never find a game on XBL with it. Right now I'm playing The Suffering (which can be played in first-person), and so far, it's pretty slick. 0 Share this post Link to post
Rotting Corpse Posted July 21, 2005 I played it and it wasent that great.The game trys to be like a mix between Half-life and Halo.The wheapon upgrades are fun.But the game got boring fast. Wait tell it hit bargen bins then buy it. If you realy need a new game get Alines vs. Preadator 2 or Clive Barker's Undying. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ayu Posted July 22, 2005 Skip Pariah. I loved unreal 2 (GASP!) but when I got Pariah I realized that it had 2 hours of effort put into making it. Thank god I got the console version so I could trade it in without problems. I'd go with AvP 2 or undying, as the post above said. 0 Share this post Link to post
Rotting Corpse Posted July 22, 2005 Udying is a great game. More people should play it. It just came out at the wrong time. The spell and firearm combat was grat. I would like to see some thing like that in more games. 0 Share this post Link to post
