Jericho

but but but! look at the screenshots! zomg, it looks so good! IT MUST BE GOOD!

the lighting! the models!

GAME OF THE YEAR!
 
It's more of an FPS with some form of experience/reward system. It's been done well in the past with games like System Shock II and Undying. However it's been 5/6 years since then so I hope it isn't just Undying with fancy graphics.

I've just noticed who's developing it: Codemasters. Given their recent form it doesn't fill me with confidence I must say.
 
Gravedigging to spotlight a trailer that was released today here.

Doesn't show much of anything except nice graphics but I thought I'd throw it out there. Anyone still have interest in the game?

Screenshots and what not were also released for it which can all be found here
 
so all they've got to show for themselves is 1 room, 1 creature and how it moves when being shot+tired up or moving free.

wow, i'm so goddamn impressed...

the screenshots dont reveal much either.
 
I'm tired of games only showing screenshots and few features. If I want to see graphics, I'm going to Cinema.
 
Clive Barker's Jericho

I have not been able to find much on this, but greatly interested.
I loved Undying, but wondering if anyone has any info on Jericho.
Is there anything besides the 30 second trailer? Anyone know anything about it at all?

check their website. as you walk through the flash using the hints, you get more information on the backstory.

it's very typical survival horror really.
 
Son of a... That name threw me off due to most recent news involving the TV show Jericho...

Codemasters are not the developers, only publisher/editor. Developers are http://www.mercurysteam.com/
a spanish company, also srapland developers.

DEMO is out now

Calling it a FPS is not correct. It's more like a First-person survival horror with guns..and magic..

There's no *SPOILER* jump function instead you get an action button with the usual WSAD setup which let you to do most of the in-game action.

The game is a resource hog while it's playable on a 3 yrs old PC (think Athlon64 with Geforce 6800), the experience can be shit when you play the game in 640*480 all settings low. It's also a good reason to get a 4-mouse button mouse for that essential melee attack (the default key sucks donkey ball).

One of the highlight is the cinematic key press where in certain scene there will be a direction key highlight which you need to press in order to perform the action successfully. I find it's quite cumbersome sometimes and feels more like an arcade game.

The atmosphere is, well, typical Clive Barker's work. Gruesome, dark, S/M, lot's of gore, lot's of blood... I like it :twisted:

Me too. CBS's Jericho is DA BOMB! Hope 2nd season comes soon...

Have you heard that CBS is not willing to continue the season so they make 7 episodes only :cry: but they say those 7 episodes will be better than the 26 they have done in the first season...
