Clive Barker's Jericho Review

MyGEN takes a look at Jericho on PC.

Mercury Steam has teamed up with horror author Clive Barker, to create a Supernatural Horror First Person Shooter. Jericho features a very strong storyline and squad based play but has severely fallen into the shadows of the other FPS titles of this year. With a strong storyline created by Clive Barker and the team at Mercury Steam and Codemasters, will Jericho surprise and be one of the best Horror FPS games of this year? Or should it remain behind the shadows of the other titles of this year.

Before Adam and Eve were created, God fashioned the Firstborn. Neither light nor dark, both terrible and beautiful to behold, it disturbed the Almighty who banished this flawed creation into the Abyss. Now the Firstborn is attempting another escape, if successful, the world as we know it will change dramatically. The world will be enslaved and massive torture will be conducted by the Firstborn in order to spite its creator.

"strong storyline" sealed the deal for me... picking it up as soon as I can

JsonHenry6053d ago

This game a "cinematic" feel to it. The game play was solid although nothing new. The powers each of the 3 (six in the full game) characters have kept things interesting in the demo.

This might be a rental for me. I did enjoy the single player game.

Danman356053d ago

The demo was horrible didn't see anything special.

bym051d6053d ago

I enjoyed the demo. I'll probably rent this one though.

Charlie26886053d ago

I think the author needs a new pair of glasses having downloaded the demo and turned the graphics to the max it has a INSANE level of detail in the characters and one of the best uses of the UE3 to date

I just hope it can live up to Undying

MK_Red6053d ago

I agree that game looks awesome and has lots of potential but this game doesn't use UE3. It's a in-house engine of the devs. Pretty good one too.

Charlie26886053d ago

OMG its true it uses the Mercury Engine, now wonder it had SO much detail compared to the UE3...you know what that means

Some one F-UP BIG time in one of the first preview of the game I read were he stated the game used the UE3

thanks for the correction have a +bubble :)

Top Steam Games Under Five Dollars: Our Recommendations

SteamFirst: How often do you log onto your Steam client and see in the top right corner your wallet balance with only a few dollars left. Oh how I hate having Steam cash just sitting there going to waste. There are always some excellent FTP titles available such as Team Fortress 2, Warframe and DOTA 2, but sometimes you want to branch out from free to play. This article is a list of my personal top 5 Steam titles that you can spend your last five bucks on.

I'm sorry, but that's quite a poor list. IMO.

Moncole3776d ago

Its called an opinion. Everyone would have a different list.

ThatEnglishDude3776d ago (Edited 3776d ago )

I've never understood why people feel the need to state that. No shit it's an opinion. Does saying this somehow make my opinion less relevant? No.

dsswoosh3776d ago

Almost everything on Steam is poor.

I wish more people would admit it something we all know deep down.

There are hundreds of meh games, mediocre at best, and virtually zero triple AAA games that make you go wow.

Steam sucks in all honesty.

If you disagree with me, you must link a decent new game on Steam.

If you disagree without linking, your gpu will overheat and die within the next 2 weeks.

LAWSON723776d ago (Edited 3776d ago )

OK Metal Gear Rising came out on Friday and not only is it good but from what I have played it is quite the solid port.
You are trolling but I want to mention this game because Platinum deserves some recognition on PC so more of there games come to the platform and I want MGS (that won't happen though)

webeblazing3775d ago

why do ps fanboys troll every article on this site.

Volkama3775d ago

I was excited to buy my new consoles, but 2 months in and the only thing I still "play" is XBox Fitness. When I'm done with that I switch on my PC where I have a quite overwhelming list of games queued up to play.

Coach_McGuirk3775d ago

@dsswoosh - it's that type of mentality that stagnates our beloved industry. "If it ain't AAA, it ain't good". Means that people just buy the same old games, meaning publishers don't take risks. PC is where you go if you want something fresh and new.

dantesparda3775d ago

@ webeblazing

You mean like you troll every Sony article? oh thr hypocrisy

Imo Dota 2 tops everything out there right now and its free. Sure it has items you could buy for the game but those are purely cosmetic.

I personally love the Glados kill announcer in dota 2, hilariously funny.

SteamFirst3776d ago

Ahh, yes. My next article which is pending is my top 5 free to play and dota 2 is number one. This is inexpensive, but not free games. Feel free to comment and suggest other titles which you prefer. We all have our own opinions. Right.

DC7773776d ago

I got Half Life 2 for under 5 bucks. An oldie but a greatie.

SteamFirst3776d ago

It is a great one. This list is of best $5 games when not on sale. But agreed. Half Life is great

JohnnyTower3776d ago

I just downloaded the Steam App last night for the first time. WOW. I cant believe what I've been missing. The Mods alone make it so much better than console. And with the Big Picture mode it plays just like a console. The dashboard is actually better than X1 or PS4. I just ordered a GTX 670 graphics card so I can rock the Skyrim upscaling mods. I had no idea what I had been missing.

hiredhelp3776d ago

Plus the savings johnny every saving you make is saving off your 670 ;)

SteamFirst3776d ago

The app is amazing. Just another great part of being a Steam gamer.

webeblazing3775d ago

you mean the os. i maybe try it later closer to the end of the beta. you if you mean the phone app, yes i can chat with people on my friends list and buy stuff on sale while out of town and even have it download to my pc. steam keeps improving as time goes by

Volkama3775d ago (Edited 3775d ago )

You think it's good now? Wait til you see a Steam Sale in action. It may just blow your mind.
