To all you people that own Xboxes!

DO NOT BUY PARIAH!

This is the absolute worst 50$$ you could spend on a game:

>The MENU screen lags!
>The GAME is laggy!
>Map Editor is retarted!
>Vehicle Handling sucks!
>Fricking Glich ridden!

GLITCHES THAT I FOUND:

When you die during an autosave proscess, you loose all your upgraded weapons, and all of your weapon cores.

When you enter the EB or GAMESTOP code, you have the same effect as above.

Shoot a grenade in a building, and get bad-guys fall out of the cieling.

Shoot a grenade in a building, have people fall through the floor.

Enemy vehicle AI is retarted, trying to drive up a 90degree angle.

Constant lockups!

You randomly die (and there is nothing in the vecinity, no mines, no anything)

No real feeling of fun, (not a glich but), its just a run 'n gun game.

THIS GAME IS REDICULISLY RETARTED!!!!

This is different than most games?

I like it.

ReD_Fist · 5th May 2005, 08:59 PM

I just seen Doom3 add on TV for Xbox,get that instead.

OO7MIKE · 5th May 2005, 09:24 PM

LOL, I'm suprised you didnt play the pc demo first. I was sure the slow paced gameplay was geared for a console.

Yea, i should have played the demo first, but the main menu screen lagging is just sad.

ReD_Fist · 5th May 2005, 09:38 PM

There is no patching stuff going on either is there.man I will stick to computers,i had my day with consoles and spent way too much on the games back then.
Also too considering they make a game on a computer ,so might as well stick with the PC for me.

OO7MIKE · 5th May 2005, 09:53 PM

That is pretty bad when a console game has issues. Maybe the lag was intentional to get you all pissed off so you are in the right mood to correctly plow through the game?

Stilgar · 5th May 2005, 10:40 PM

I would demand my money back.

Kantham · 6th May 2005, 05:01 AM

I tryed the pc demos SP and MP and normaly , when you play a demo , the demo is good enought to make you want to buy the game. But honnestly , i don't like pariah. I got low fps , it need more weapon , the falling damage is ridiculous , The AI Is dumb as hell.

They will not get more buyer than UT games. That's all , and ...

yeah , get money back.

militaryspetproject · 6th May 2005, 06:30 AM

bummer I was looking forward to that game

I am demanding my money back, but since the game was opened, they wont accept it (EB standard policy). But then again, you have to open the game in order to paly it.
Atleast I can trade it in for 40$ with a loss of 10$, so that aint that bad.

Imagofer · 6th May 2005, 10:49 AM

Just decided to give the game one last play before i return it, and noticed another stupid AI flaw:

During a cutscene, soldiers are marching, and then they go strainght into a wall, and are still trying to go past it, while the camera is thifting, then the next scene, they are talking to eachother, but there isnt anyone talikng!

THen the game locks-up again, forcing me to put the game back in its place, and return it.

Kantham · 6th May 2005, 11:07 AM

Haha , That's a waste of money

Aah, but you see the game clearly doesn't work at all. It doesn't even load when you put it in the machine. *cough*
clearly, it must be exchanged for another game.

darth_weasel · 6th May 2005, 03:22 PM

I done that when i got Hidden & Dangerous PS1 version.

"yeah this doesn't work"
"so do you want a replacement one?"
"uhh. im thinking no, just refund me"
*suspicious look*

How long have you had it? What kind of consumer rights laws have you got? I know in nz you have a 7 day right of return for things like this.

OO7MIKE · 6th May 2005, 06:44 PM

LOL, consumer rights?

Imagofer · 6th May 2005, 06:54 PM

Ok, I went to EB, and tried to return the game... Well, I ask how much for the game, here is the speech:

"Hey, Is there any way I can return Pariah?" (me)
"No, sorry, we cannot accept returns"
"Why not?" (me)
"Well, its piracy, and our policy, sorry."
"Ok, how much do you give for Pariah?" (me)
"Let me check, says here... uhm... 8$"
"8$! Thats crap!" (me)
"Yea I know"
"Well, theres nothing i can do, but you can trade in 3, get 1 free." (me)
*I also had SOF: 2, and Bloodwake*
"Here take theese" (me)
"Ok, there you go, you get a game"
*I took SW: EPisode III*

EIGHT DOLLARS! Thats bull!, but o well, im boycotting anything that has Digital Extremes & Groove Games on the box!

Balton · 6th May 2005, 06:57 PM

that's what I call divine satisfaction...
