  1. Empire

    8.0/10
    6 November 2005

    This sophisticated, atmospheric and intelligent sci-fi romp certainly lives up to the hype. A welcome arrival to anyone bored of the Halo games, this offers similarly high quality graphics and engrossing gameplay, packaged with heart-stopping action, tricky puzzles and buckets of attitude. As the dashing Dr Mason, you’re ordered to escort two quarantined humans from one jail to another on prison planet Earth. Read more

  2. PALGN

    6.5/10
    30 July 2005

    You play as Dr. Jack Mason, a doctor who has been assigned to transport a woman who is infected with a strange virus from Eath to a medical facility. On this journey, the transport ship takes some heavy fire and crash lands in the mountains. When Mason wakes up he finds that he only has one crew member left and they soon realize that the infected woman they were carrying has gone missing. Read more

    Much like the endless stream of 2K-fever-blitz-insert name of star player sports games, science-fiction themed first person shooters have become a common, dime a dozen staple of the average console gamer's diet. Some, like Halo (XBW: 97%), are a nutritious smorgasbord of Epicurean delight, while others, like Terminator 3 (XBW: 48%), are about as good for you as badly prepared sushi after a night on the grog.

    Extremely unoriginal, but still fun. Pariah makes good use of a very solid engine. Read more

    With the exception of a different sytem in selecting weapons, there is nothing new and impressive about this. why is it that developers always go for a quick buck by reinventing old ideas? come on guys really, apart from improving how life like the graphics can be, why not give us, (the hardcore gamers), something new and ground breaking to really get our teeth into? somthing in depth with a storyline to match?
