yeah, a lotta shitty games coming out the last year or so.

expected as much, although the PC mp demo was very fun IMO
I thought the same thing, I loved the mp demo, still play it every once in a while.... but the weapons are very contrived, boring and when I found out the weps in the demo are all the weps in the game, I crossed Pariah off of my "it could still be decent" list.

I wonder if it sucks as hard as Halo 2..
if you didn't like Halo2, chances are you aren't a fps on console fan, so yeah it would suck even harder since the gfx suck, the sp is convoluted and the mp is repetitive.

I have to agree with you there, things look good this year, BF2, Fear, Quake 4 all look breath-taking, new consoles coming out. the new PPU (physics processing unit) for PC etc.

don't forget about Valve though,

we have the Aftermath(more HL2 = good hl2, even if I have to play as Alex, or with her... eww or whatever :P ) expansion coming out soon (which means in the next year or so, I think) the long hidden, and oft unspoken Team Fortress 2! (maybe just maybe we might hear something about it this years E3)

and hell Im sure DOD:S will be released publicly sometime this year (it has said "coming soon" for a good "while" now, so Im sure the lease on "soon" must be coming to an end sometime :P )
 
Meh. I'm still renting it. The game actually looks interesting and actually uses orignal and interesting concepts compared to other games. I'm sure I'll have fun with my rental.

Oh and for future reference:

GameSpot underrates everything

IGN overrates everything.

The real score is in between ;). So the game is basically a 7.

You play as Gordon...it was confirmed..
 
I remember there were some people posting on this forum that Pariah was this year's HL2 killer. HA! I hate tell them I told you so.
 
gamespot always keeps it real
the multiplayer demo SUCKED
 
Oh I'm sure many of you were mad GameSpot gave Half Life 2 a 9.2 while console games got better scores am I right? And I forget what IGN gave HL2, but I know it was a high score it certaintly doesn't deserve.
 
I expected as much from Pariah, but who cares, STALKER will be out soon!
*crowd cheers*
 
Soon? Naaah :p
Last I heard from THQ was a October release, which they've given to several gaming store outlets.
For me that's not soon, soon is 1-2 month.
But we'll have Boiling Point in a few weeks to keep us entertained with open-ended gameplay til STALKER releases.

Thats debatable really. As it got the same kind of scores that Halo 2, GTA:SA, Resident Evil 4 and God of War got (9.7 i think HL2 got from IGN) and its not too far off the average rating for HL2 if i'm right. I think its something like 9.6.

the way i figure it, there's a few sites out there that surrender to hype too often, so the best way to determine whether a game is good or not, is to look up the average on metacritic.com or gamerankings.com
 
Well I rented the game and I gotta say, its really entertaining. The shooting's fun, upgrades make the weapons better and the plot's decent so far.
 
6.3 on PC from Gamespot. They say its not even fun to shoot in the game :(
