Clive Barker's Jericho Demo [Screenshots]

I was not expecting this game to feature such beautiful graphics. It feels like every other game you are going to see these days will have vibrant environments.

Not only that, the concept of the game is also good. Jericho is a squad of a number of players who stick together most of the time. Because of this you can switch to play as anyone of them at any point. These members have unique abilities which you can exploit to slash the enemies.

One of the capability which impressed me most is that you can direct the sniper bullet on a path which can take out at-most 3 enemies. If you can get 3 head-shots, you kill all 3 of them.

About graphics, first of all the characters are modeled really well.

It features a really nice 'Depth of Field' visual which causes blurring of non focused objects. See the screen-shot below to get the picture. No performance hit in real-time whatsoever.

Increased the brightness of this manually, here also you can see blurring of all the unfocused background.

Fantastic lighting and shadows along with depth of field makes the game looks fantastic.

The wonderful visuals are running really good on my 7950gx2 which is an example of elegant game engine design. (Bungie may want to learn something here)

By the way, Clive Barker is a famous author and movie director. His novels are famous and if you remember the Movie "HellRaiser", that's his directed. If you remember the old horror game "Undying" (which I still have btw) was his step into gaming industry.
