1up has posted their review of the horror FPS Clive Barker’s Jericho, lambasting it with a 3.0 out of 10! And here I thought this would be a good game.

An excerpt of its destructive comedy:
‘A prehuman demigod stealing slices of history as its own personal playground? It’s a pretty nifty premise, and worthy of Clive Barker’s name.

Unfortunately, the rest of the game is absolutely, positively, most definitely not. Take the writing, for example, especially the opening narration: This overwrought tripe is so over-the-top, so ridiculously high-school-goth that it makes Max Payne’s brooding melodrama read like a paragon of stylistic restraint.’
