4.0 out of 5 stars a supernatural Killzone...a squad based Painkiller..., October 29, 2007
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
Jericho is getting bad reviews in the magazines, and it's a shame because a lot of fps gamers are going to miss out.

To sum it up shortly,.. I would say Jericho is like a squad based Painkiller,.. or a supernatural Killzone. It's got great graphics,.. a freaky supernatural story,.. a cast of interesting supporting teammates all with special powers and unique weapons,.. and insane Silent Hill-ish enemies.

The game slowly opens up all the gameplay in the beginning. Each character has two attacks (either one gun with two ammo types, or two guns, or a sword.) and a special ability which can be offensive or defensive. Your team is split up into alpha and omega squads. You can order each team to different points or have them all move together. You can tell your entire team to stay put and they will untill you get out of sight. Once you leave their sight, they come catching up. The AI is nice,.. but if it was any better than there would be nothing for the player to do. If a teammate is "killed" you can walk up to them and bring them back just like in Gears of War.
About four or five levels in, you get the ability to posess and control any teammate at any time. Just aim at them and hit the posess button (or go into a menu and select one to posess.) Different situations in the game require the different abilities of your teammates.

The levels are linear,.. but with different paths to get to the same areas. The monsters usually spawn in groups and rush you. At first the enemy variation is low and you will mostly fight only two types of monsters. But a few levels in all kinds of other freaky as hell monsters start showing up. I started having flashbacks to the original Quake. (remember that classic?) All the enemies take a LOT of ammo to put down,.. but since you have a squad of six teammates it balances out. Some monsters have weak spots.

Seriously,these are inhuman nightmare abomination monsters from hell , do you expect them to take cover and use strategy? It's a nice marriage of old-school Quake and Painkiller monster rushing with some new-school squad based teamwork.

It has some RE4 style interactive cinemas in which you only have a spit second to hit the correct buttons. They'll happen unexpectedly and you'll die repeatedly,.. BUT when you fail them they immediately repeat for you to try untill you pass so you don't have to reload a savegame or restart at an earlier checkpoint. (and one of the cheats eliminates the button mashing from the specific cutscenes if you can't stand them.)
The cinemas are all played in first person.

There's really nothing wrong with Jericho. It's fun and freaky. It all depends on your personal taste. If you liked The Darkness or Painkiller then you should give Jericho a chance. At least it's something other than a WW2 or Halo fps.

4.0 out of 5 stars "And the walls kept tumbling down.." Killer High concept FPS, October 30, 2007
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
I don't understand why this game received negative reviews from IGN and a few other so-called Game critics, but Clive Barker's Jericho manages to live up to it's expectations. I find the plot and concept more interesting than that other FPS game FEAR as you command a supernatural squad to prevent the antagonist; The Firstborn from ressurection and taking over the world while using various powers to solve puzzles, take down enemies, that cannot be beaten with regular firepower.

Each charater has his/her own supernatural abilities: Father Rawlings can drain the health of enimes and channel it to his teammates, Delgado emits a homing fireblast for close encounters,The telekinetic Black's sninper rifle fires rounds that you can control in first person perspective, etc..
After playing for 40 minutes, it's hard to put this game down.With intense firefighting an intriging story aimed directly at horror fans and awesome graphics bump Jericho up a notch or two. It would have gotten a 5 star rating if there were a multiplayer option or even a much better ending.

The critcs got it WRONG, period!(especially EGM in particular.) Jericho was well worth the purchase, unlike The nausea inducing Darkness shooter game. However with more innovate FPS shooters like Bioshock and now Jericho, It's gonna be awhile before this genre goes away.

PS the game is even better while playing the song "Break the walls down" (via Xbox 360's custom soundtrack)courtesy of Nu Metal band Sevendust.
crank the speakers and annoy the neighbors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful game, I must say!, October 29, 2007
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Full of suspense. The score ( meaning music) in the game is perfect. It adds so much to the environment. The stages are beautifully designed. The story is mysterious, just like silent hill 1 and 2. what also adds to the game is, you get too play with 6 characters. And believe me you need them. All the characters have their own special powers, which you need to use to get through the stages. I just love the whole midevil period with old orchestra music so dam, whoo gives me the creeps. Bottom line is forget about all the negative feedback and reviews from ign and all those other jackie's. This game is a good experience like bioshock. If you don't try it, your missing out on a great game.
