I really think the Jericho demo was horrible, maybe its because Ive been playing halo 3 but I was really expecting this to be a great game. I still have my copy of Undying and love it, but Jericho just doesnt impress.

I was hoping it would focus more on the horror aspect than action, like Condemned.

Sorry, but I just dont get how some are hyping the graphics... I thought they were seriously ugly and muddy looking. Pretty much every game Ive played on my 360 looks better than this mess.

I felt like I wasn't doing anything to the creature things, the weapons were boring and so were the characters.

I like most of it, except for one major thing....the kill animations...you cant tell or get any reaction when shooting the monsters.

Yeah, download it on a console if your computer sucks too much to make it look good, the game is supposed to look quite good.

Played the demo on the 360 for about 30sec not a good 1st impression but might give it a another chance.

The entire demo looked like it was coated in baby oil, it is like a crappy PDZ.

lol. yeah. It looked horrible too me, pretty much the worse looking game Ive ever seen on a 360. Hour of Victory had better graphics... Usually graphics dont matter that much to me, but these were so bland/bad I didnt even want to play the game.

Yeah I just played the demo this morning on PS3, and cam away very impressed. The graphics are great for the PS3 version. Ill d/l the 360 version later to compare the two.

Maybe I'm really impressed because I wan't expecting anything from this game. I think it will get AA here at GS.

It doesn't look bad technically but artistically it could use some major improvement. Not to mention whenever I use the Ghost Bullet power I feel like I don't even hit enemies until I'm in FPS view and see them die.

Exactly, artistically it was just ugly. Plus the gameplay wasnt exactly fun, am I just playing Halo too much?

No, you're not playing Halo to much, I downloaded the PS3 version, and I don't have a 360, nor anything to play on my console, and I agree with you, Jerihco was extremely board and bland, I felt like I was playing a bump mapped duck hunt game, you can move, but everything felt like basically a hall going from A to B, filled with lots of pre-renders, bump mapping, designs and such, like GT5, you can drive it pretty but it won't damage, you can look but you can't touch *that kind of feeling*...

Nothing was interactive, and when you walked your character felt like they were bowl leg-ed,so much in fact, it was almost like *Sorry for disrespecting my favorite comedian here*, a Chris Farley simulation demo...

The A.I. stood there, as I shot, looking the opposite direction, then my teamates would stand in front of the enemy and do some over exagerated magic to the enemy, the enemy dies, move on...

Overall, if this game scores higher than Heavenly sword, I swear on my life reviewers are simply brain dead...

It was really bleh to me, I didn't like it or dislike it. I thought the action and graphics were pretty good but I don't like the art style and the story seems a little too campy for me (And I like Troma stuff...)

Some liked it as much as you hated it, it all depends on who reviews it, someone who thinks like you might give it a 6, someone else might give it an 8, its not like everything you stated was a fact, it was merely your experiance.

Played it on the PC. Was very impressed considering that there really was no hype surrounding the game nor did I know what it was actually about.

Graphics were amazing. I don't know what the hell you guys are talking about. The art style was great, those monsters are very well designed and it seems like there is a large variety of monsters to come. The gameplay wasn't exactly impressive or logical (Honestly, why is my primary fire a freaking rocket and secondary fire a sniper bullet?) but I loved the cinematic moments. Story I can't suspect much though since Clive Barker only had one good story (and that was Undying).

It was unique, but it felt kind of sloppy, like it was trying too hard and not succeeding. I have iffy feelings about it.

I wasn't expecting much. So the demo wasn't disappointing to me. But yeah I couldn't finish it. I hate being in closed tight corridos in an FPS for that long.

The story is mediocre at best imo, the gameplay is..well... boring, and the characters are lame ever since i saw that trailer with the jericho squad getting ambushed. The graphics were good (atleast on my ps3) but i really, REALLY hated the "introduction to jericho" section of the demo, i felt like i was watching a very bad movie coated in cheese.

Frame rate was fine.... no drops, I'll play it again to make sure. But we compared it to the 360 version and the PS3 one looked better.

Low profile? I can see that you don't like the game, but low profile? The game made 170 Million dollars in 24 hours.

A game hasn't gotten the rambo formula right in a long time. Halo keeps it scifi and simple. That translates into a lot of fun, especially with friends.

Death matches? Coop? There is tons of FPS on PC that achieve this in a more spectacular way than Halo.

Once again, Halo is dedicated to console user unable to deal with keyboard and mouse or unable to get a decent PC.

Half-Life 2, all the Unreal, all the Battlefield, Stalker System Shock... and many more that I can't think of because there is so many...

All the HL2 mods alone are stronger than any FPS I played on any console since the N64.

Compare Halo with the best PC have and you are in for a good disspointment if you are an xbox fanboy.

Counter-Strike is still the most fluent FPS ever and Source is still the most popular FPS.

Nothing with Clive Barker name on it is ever any good besides besides a few movies not even all of them. All of his Comic Books are just terrible.
