Clive Barker's Jericho demo arriving this week

Game seems great but going by the demo it seems you have one path to take and that's it. If the game is relatively short like most new games are as well I don't think i'd get many playing hours out of it as there wouldn't be a lot of point playing it again.
 
Quick question before I install, does the demo support DX10?

Just so I know whether to install on XP or Vista :)
 
Demo is ridiculously short for a gb game :(
My only other complaint is that it feels like a console port so the controls are crappy on a pc (personal preference i know) as they are very console-esque (e.g. button for zoom rather than scroll wheel etc)
The graphics, atmosphere and sound are amazing though
 
Whats this software updates thing then?. Installed demo , but haven't noticed any software updates program , does it hide from you or only get installed if you do normal install? ( I did custom).

As for game , seems pretty good. would have liked a longer demo though and runs well enough on my ageing system. How ever the controls annoyed me , more specifically mouse sensitivity. No adjustment on it , just a option for high , medium and low and even on low the sensitivity is far too high.

Cant play it, regardless of any RES or setting, as soon as game loads it pauses, thats in Menu's or watching the Video and actually playing it.

HDD was defragged other day so only this small demo is new addition, something not right.
 
Jesus. I have to put everything on low/off to even get over 25fps at 1440x900 lol

That game doesn't like my card, shame, it looks like a quality game !
 
Running at 1680x1050 all maxed with 4xaa edge smoothing and not getting any framerate problems. All buttery smooth, must be near 60ish although didnt test with fraps.
 
Mmmmm, Just installed on Vista.

Can't get into it. I think I'm trying to compare it to BioShock. I got bored very quickly. Looks nice tho...

Sadly this is one of those games that looks unpolished from the demo, and has simon says 'interactive' crap bits. Sod that, it just adds repetitiveness by the bucketload. Cancelled my pre-order plans anyway.

Was installed as a control panel applet and in the All Programs menu list in the top section on my XP system, no uninstall options that I could find, it wasn't listed in add/remove programs and nowhere did it ask if I wanted it installed while I installed the demo. It appears to be an autoupdater for the demo.
 
This seems like another horrible console port (the default keyboard map is terrible). It looks pretty, but doesn't seem like anything special at all, also i found combat somewhat slow and clunky. How disappointing.
 
downloaded: crap- looks aweful, plays aweful, looks like just another terrible console port (arent we PC gamers getting shafted at the moment :p), also the first game/demo/beta to crash on me in vista
