Any good on Live?

I've seen a few on my friends list playing it but they were back on Black Arrow and Halo 2 by the end of the week.

Think I'm going to grab WoW anyway.

Pariah is balls on Live. Utter balls. Decent single player though.

6 player on Live unless played on a dedicated server.

Rubbish!

The demo was glitchy as hell and almost felt unfinished, if the final game is like that then I wouldn't pay £10 for it.

6 player sounds good, not everything has to be about the number of players (Chaos Theory anyone?), one of the best games I've had on Halo 2 consisted of only 3 people in a custom match.

That was intentional, right?

It depends. Most demos say "not representative of the final product" or some other crap at the start, but Pariah had none of this and the demo was released about a fortnight before the full game came out.

There seem to be a lot of demos out that don't fully represent the final thing in a positive light despite them being much improved..

It is glitchy in places and they over-estimated the Xbox's power as I have encountered some uber slowdown in places. Let's say it's worth it's weight in copper.

Sounds a bit like what happened with Half-Life on the PS2.

Sounds a bit like a "get it if its cheap" game to me.
