Jericho is a love it or hate it title.
i recently bought Jericho anyway and from the beginning of the game it already felt like a different experience. I dont sweat Clive Barker or anything of thesort but this games atmosphere sucked me in. Maybe its because i like horror movies and heavy metal music but everything i see in Jericho either makes me think "woah" or "awesome" or is just a pleasure to shoot.
I believe the switching between 7 characters is a little unnecessary. Shouldve been condensed i think. Plus it is quite annoying that you spend lots of time reviving your teammates when you should be shooting the problem. Nevertheless every inch of Jericho is visually impressive and foreboding. I enjoy the gore, th variety of monsters, the irregularity of the typical gameplay machanics and the overall challenge. This is one intense game.
I know you have to really like Jericho to play it. But most reviews i see dont give the game enough credit. Rent it just for the experience of trying it, hopefully itll convince you to buy it. I'm glad i did.
