This game was underrated, I remember getting it for like 5 bucks and was surprised how much I enjoyed it. I liked the sword girl and the dual pistol guy the most.
This game was one of my favorites on the 360. The plot was so crazy and intense, and I will never see another game like it unless they remaster it.
I still have the limited edition steelbook! This game has its flaws but it's a guilty pleasure of mine. I absolutely love the atmosphere, the art and body horror. It's a fun little gem (wish it was backwards compatible)

they’ll probably remaster/remake it, they’ve done it with Voodoo Vince 😅 why not this one
Too bad the game wasn't backwards compatible. It looks like it has an unlocked framerate. It could've benefitted from being run on the Series consoles.

Get it on pc, it natively supports xbox controller
This game is like a fever dream. I remember seeing it at blockbuster or Walmart all the time. But no one I knew ever played it lol
Love this game. It has a great squad based mechanic I wish other games used. Looks great for a 360 title too. I believe licensing issues stopped it from being backwards compatible on Series X/S which is a real shame.
What’s funny is I played this not that long ago! I wondered if anyone remembered it! Trying to get the Hard Mode Achievements without dying is actually torture, especially when you have to play perfectly. One section in I think level/ checkpoint 4 or 5, made me cry because of how hard it was. I finally got through it, screamed of victory and then immediately got food lol. Great video though Camp Xbox, keep up the great work!!

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
Crazy to think this team would go on to make Castlevania Lords of Shadows and then Metroid Dread! It is a solid little experience worth the bargain bin price you usually find it at these days. Not great but it has flashes of brilliance and if you enjoy it you'll have a solid little weekend beating it. Would adore a remaster with improved ally AI and online co-op added. Game has so much going for it and really does just need some polishing to its main features to shine meaningfully.
I’m glad you decided to play this, this game has intrigued me for years and i have never taken the plunge into it.
This is the finest review I've seen of this game to date my friend, outstanding! I have it in my collection but need to play it now, as your impressions from playing it have me intrigued!

Glad you enjoyed the review! You’ll have to tell me if you like it when you get to it!
I was just Thinking about this game earlier today, I'll enjoy the video!
I remember really enjoying this game. For the first three or so hours i did find the game tricky to get into but soon something about the game grabbed me, thankfully i stayed with it.
Wow I was just talking about this in a recent video. Great to see you talk about it on here too.
Intresting that Mercury Steam this that :) They also did the Castlevania Reboot Games and the Metroid 2 Remake

Yeah their Metroid games are so good!
I’m so glad you made a video on this game. I really liked it back in the day when it came and was disappointed by all of the negative reviews (although that was during EGM’s villain arc lol). Hopefully this will introduce it to some new people that will enjoy it like I did back the day. Great video!

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Happy that you also enjoyed the game too I hadn't played it till now, but I think I would have enjoyed it back in the day as well.
I really enjoyed this game. Horror atmosphere, gunplay and graphics were great at that time👍 I just discovered Your channel and as Xbox player since 2002 I think stay around💚💚💚
I bought this a few weeks back but haven’t played it yet. Looking forward to trying it out. Great video as always!

Thanks! You’ll have to let me know your impressions!
I loved this game! I never beat it cuz I let someone borrow it and forgot to get it back and I keep forgetting to look for it at old game stores. I wanna play this again now
These games just always have such a good indenity and you knew that as soon as you saw the Clive Barker logo
Just ordered this. Im beating every FPS game released for the 360, so this one should be interesting

lmk how that goes!
I didn’t watch the video yet but I would like to say right off the bat that I really like this game
i remember playing this game as a kid and my dad walked in when youre doing the exorcist on that one chick and my dad looks at me and my brother and shakes his head and says "wtf are you guys watching no wonder youre fucked" lol best memory of any game, and always thought to myself that tis story could be true at least the 1st born part lol
I wanted to play this game when it came out. Never got around to it.
This is one of my favorite games I’ve ever played. I actually own it but just never played it, I’ve always been into the tone and concept of the game. I would absolutely love a remake, with maybe a horde mode, online co-op, and more missions.
We were spoiled with different genre games back then. How many different types of shooters we get these days?
Excellent review! I'm going to pick this one up for my 360. I like the subject matter and style.
I bought a pc copy of this game a few months ago, it's on my to play list right now lol
man i loved the game when i first played it. both clive barker games ive played this and undying where always uniqe. this video brings backs memories thanks for reminding me again.

Glad you enjoyed it!
One of my all time favorite fps games
Clive barker seems really dedicated to his work, bad or good, unlike most authors these daysb
Undying was the best FPS horror game I've ever played from Clive Barker, but when I saw Jericho. It look very generic, and never bothered playing when it came out. I just played Resistance instead.
This game isn't bad at all, its a cult classic.
I finished this when it was new I actually enjoyed it
I’ve owned this game for years and never actually knew it was a FPS I’ll get it out and give it a go
Funny enough, I was literally just thinking about this game today lol 😂 than you suddenly post a video about, perfect timing 😉
This game has a really cool premise. Maybe a some sort of remake or reboot could fix some of it's problems
Love Clive barker stuff. I have this just haven't played it
I rented this game back when it just released, i never played past the second level, dont remember much about it but it just wasnt that great compared to other titles of the same time
This game is 🔥 recently beat it
I played this game so many times over. I've even considered picking up a copy for old times sake.
I love this game and will forever be sad that we never got the promised trilogy.
Just clicked on this. Game is fire.
Love the vibes, the look, and all the potential of this game. The gameplay and story makes me want to die every time I load it up. So damn bad
The pastor with guns was a running joke for years between my friends and i
I loved Undying and Jericho! Played them both and had a blast on them! Wish they'd remake Jericho, but don't change things for political clout!
I loved this game to the core. I dont understand how ppl didnt like it
that ending tho LOL

Yeah I can't believe they did that
I actually did play this game and honestly I didn't care for it. It's not the worst game ever and I don't mind linear games. The biggest problem that I have is that I felt it was designed poorly and it actually handicapped me in many places. I think I got to about the level in the dark facility where you had to go through a tunnel and then I just gave up. I guess hearing you say the ending was bad means I didn't miss much!
I remember I was so hyped for this game and bought it day one but quickly lost interest for one reason or another and traded it in. I need to grab another copy.
The game was great but needed more polish on A.i had constantly babysit them and reviving them often dying a lot and the gameplay and controls too. The difficulty is off the roof normal seems like ultra hard.
I have the disc here and my 360 broke... I wish I could play this on my series X.
Fucking love this game
Why is the chapters based on Gears of War?
Yes
Fun game to play^^
Badass!
Clive Barkers Jericho got nothing on FEAR or even Trepang 2, but I liked the idea of a military unit battling paranormal threats to the US/Humanity. Probably needed a sequel to improve on the original game's faults. Unfortunately, we didn't get one.
Seen this at a store the other day for cheap, would've gotten it but it had h*lla scratches :( .
The game is not bad at all, it's pretty good.
This game is a bit like daikatana to me.
This game seems like it had potential but looks held back by tech issues which is a real shame
Sadly, most of the interesting xbox 360 games are not backward compatible... Probably due to copyright of the owners.... but that's life...
I played this at launch, when I worked in a retail games store, years ago... It's great a time if you're going into it 1st time around, but as you've stated, it can become repetitive and tedious. I think I played it on hard, and it was certainly a challenge, unlocking quite a few achievements along the way, but it wasn't a game that I went back to. The highlights were the enemy designs and the team you can switch through on the fly. It's not a bad game, just a middling, forgettable game. It certainly needed a multi-player mode too.
I would’ve played it if it didn’t get such poor reviews back then :(
It's ok. By the time i was done with it, i was happy to be finished. Flawed generic shooter with a gothic tone where you can't see s!?t
Sometimes I wish you had a spoiler section of your videos, cuz I’m definitely curious about that abrupt ending.
That iis an intrusively long commercial for a game I'm not remotely interested in. Do better YT.
This analyses feels incomplete, there is a lot of sustenance missing. I feel like I got a bio of the game but not an actual analysis of its quality.
