The Xbox Community Network recently caught up with Andrew Wafer who is the Product Brand Manager, Codemasters to ask him all things about For Clive Barker's Jericho...
GamerU is a horror fanatic, so for me October is a full 31 days of terror filled to the brim with nothing but scary movies, creepy books, and gore-splattered video games. For those who prefer to keep their fright contained to one single evening however, there's no shortage of excellent horror games covering just about every genre that will fit right in with your Halloween festivities.
"SimplyCDKeys are hosting an eight day Steam sale. Each day a new game will be added to the sale. So far the games on offer are as follows:

SteamFirst: How often do you log onto your Steam client and see in the top right corner your wallet balance with only a few dollars left. Oh how I hate having Steam cash just sitting there going to waste. There are always some excellent FTP titles available such as Team Fortress 2, Warframe and DOTA 2, but sometimes you want to branch out from free to play. This article is a list of my personal top 5 Steam titles that you can spend your last five bucks on.
I've never understood why people feel the need to state that. No shit it's an opinion. Does saying this somehow make my opinion less relevant? No.
Almost everything on Steam is poor.
I wish more people would admit it something we all know deep down.
There are hundreds of meh games, mediocre at best, and virtually zero triple AAA games that make you go wow.
Steam sucks in all honesty.
If you disagree with me, you must link a decent new game on Steam.
If you disagree without linking, your gpu will overheat and die within the next 2 weeks.
OK Metal Gear Rising came out on Friday and not only is it good but from what I have played it is quite the solid port.
You are trolling but I want to mention this game because Platinum deserves some recognition on PC so more of there games come to the platform and I want MGS (that won't happen though)
I was excited to buy my new consoles, but 2 months in and the only thing I still "play" is XBox Fitness. When I'm done with that I switch on my PC where I have a quite overwhelming list of games queued up to play.
@dsswoosh - it's that type of mentality that stagnates our beloved industry. "If it ain't AAA, it ain't good". Means that people just buy the same old games, meaning publishers don't take risks. PC is where you go if you want something fresh and new.
Imo Dota 2 tops everything out there right now and its free. Sure it has items you could buy for the game but those are purely cosmetic.
I personally love the Glados kill announcer in dota 2, hilariously funny.
Ahh, yes. My next article which is pending is my top 5 free to play and dota 2 is number one. This is inexpensive, but not free games. Feel free to comment and suggest other titles which you prefer. We all have our own opinions. Right.
It is a great one. This list is of best $5 games when not on sale. But agreed. Half Life is great
I just downloaded the Steam App last night for the first time. WOW. I cant believe what I've been missing. The Mods alone make it so much better than console. And with the Big Picture mode it plays just like a console. The dashboard is actually better than X1 or PS4. I just ordered a GTX 670 graphics card so I can rock the Skyrim upscaling mods. I had no idea what I had been missing.
you mean the os. i maybe try it later closer to the end of the beta. you if you mean the phone app, yes i can chat with people on my friends list and buy stuff on sale while out of town and even have it download to my pc. steam keeps improving as time goes by
You think it's good now? Wait til you see a Steam Sale in action. It may just blow your mind.
Can anyone say how does this game run on ps3?
"
In what's becoming a familiar refrain, the PS3 version is the weakest of them all. While the PC and Xbox 360 versions hold their own graphically, the PS3 version is noticeably worse looking--to the degree we almost lowered the score for it a point. Basic special effects such as fire are extremely grainy. The general color contrast is high, making already dark areas even darker. There is a significant amount of jaggies (a lack of anti-aliasing) throughout the whole game. And the framerate, which normally tops 30 frames per second, takes a massive, prolonged hit when more than three enemies appear on screen. The content of the game is still exactly the same, which means this game is worth your while, but if you have multiple systems, avoid the PS3 version.

Well, I own the PS3 version of the game and I guess I managed to get one of the "PS3 fixed working special edition" copies because I haven't encountered any of those problems at all. Also, my copy seems to have come packed in with a locked 30fps and anti-aliasing all set up and working fine! Wow, how lucky I feel.
Seriously though. There isn't a single issue with the PS3 version of Jericho and it looks and plays absolutely amazing. As for his complaints about the "dark areas" I actually found the higher contrast a better mood setter than the brighter shades of the 360 version. It reminded me of my Doom 3 days not being able to see NUTHIN except what was in my little circle of light from my flashlight. Also, I guess he forgot that the game actually comes with a flashlight function for those darkened areas (Triangle is your friend).
In all honesty I don't know what type of stuff Gametap was on because none of those problems exist in the game and I've already gunned my way through over half the campaign. Besides, i'll concede and say the PS3 version of certain games have framerate issues (Fear, The Darkness, Anything from EA) but I'm just not going to agree with this guy.
The PS3 version of Jericho is awesome and any PS3 owner should pick it up. That said, any owner of a next gen console should pick the game up because this just might be the next-gen's Bujingai (bubble for the person who actually knows what game I'm talking about)
