Bloody, gory, and lots of fun (edited) January 12, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I wanted to get this game since I played the demo and it's a lot of fun. The graphics and voice acting are above average, the story is entertaining, and dialogue is a little cheesy, but it's bearable. The best thing about the game is the different supernatural powers that the team members have. Some are more efficient to use than others, and you'll probably use your favorite 2-3 members for most of the game (most likely Church, who uses a one-hit kill sword, and Delgado who uses fire and a minigun). The weapons are usual FPS machine guns, pistols, snipers, etc. Each member has their own personality, which helps keep the game fresh. The ultimate rental. I don't suggest buying it due to lack of multiplayer and a short campaign. Squeamish people, STAY AWAY!
Edited- I haven't been able to play this game in a while, but I picked it up again recently. I haven't gotten too far into the game when I reviewed it, but having played it furthur, I have found many faults that I didn't notice before. The main and most frustrating one is the lack of any sort of intelligence whatsoever from your teammates. They rarely use cover, and when they do they use it incredibly poorly. They usually stand in the same spot all clumped together in a group firing at the same enemy while ignoring the other ones. They never back away from enemies that are charging at them, not even the ones who explode when they get near you. As a result, they are CONSTANTLY dieing, making you revive them constantly. This becomes even more frustrating when the squad gets split up since you have to pay extra attention to make sure that those guys don't die. One part of the game is so excruciatingly difficult that I have almost given up on beating the game. Which is a darn shame since I'm loving the wacky storyline.

Really disappointing December 18, 2007 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
The story involves the 7 member Team Jericho--a supernatural-based special forces squad that goes to the desert to stop the evil lurking within it. It's a solid story with decent graphics that's badly hampered by poor game development. I spent most of the time bringing my fallen comrades back to life and this really drags it down. It quickly grows very repetitive and tiresome. The visuals are pretty good, but the backgrounds are mostly unimpressive--lots of bland tunnels and stone corridors. Although I read the bad reviews I like Barker's writing quite a bit and wanted to give it a chance. It wasn't worth it. If you're interested and just have to play it, do yourself a favor, rent it... and then go buy one of the many much better games out there.
Jericho: Lots of Potential, Bad Development December 2, 2007 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Well, at first it was a nice concept for a Video game, but in the end the game it's too damn linear and the history doesn't make it up, bad ending that leaves you with more questions than answers, could have been a lot better. Good Eye Candy and Sound, but as i wrote before the lack of freedom and development of the history as a whole just made the game worse, it does have some replay value to get unlockables but those are just some kind of files on the characters and im not sure if it worths the effort, at least for me it doesn't.
is this what i paid 500 buck for?? the worst game yet November 27, 2007 6 out of 13 found this review helpful
this is the worst game I've play on the PS3 yet. the AI for your squad is the worst I've seen in a long time since they rush to die so easily its ridiculous and they suck at killing enemies i spend more time saving these idiots than fighting. if i could give this thing negative stars I would Totally Sux is a better rating!!
