Pariah is just like your average first person shooter having you kill off multiple enemies, drive and crash vehicles and defend at least one thing the entire game.

You play as Jack Mason, a doctor with nothing left to lose. When your transport ship is shot down during a prisoner transfer, you and your infected patient find themselves stranded deep within the vicious prison sectors of a wasteland called 'Earth'.

Story

The storyline is rather weak with no variation in tasks presented, find the enemy, kill the enemy and protect the girl. The battles are short lived and over gunned, setting you against a whopping 2 enemies each fight. There is a small array of weapons at your disposal, and ammunition is just about everywhere, making the challenge a simple sense of looking about.The controls are the real let down in this case, making it hard to aim the simplest of shots. The response time when looking about is sluggish even at the highest sensitivity and if held long enough your vision darts from side to side losing sight of your intended target. Vehicles also present a challenge to drive with highly sensitive controls, the complete opposite side of the control spectrum.
