Lets compare Dark Sector and Jericho

I have them both, picked up on the cheap from the shop.  Now, with little playtime in Jericho (only at the part where you enter the open area with the turret gunners or whatever) and almost all the way through Dark Sector right now, I think these 2 games are decent titles.  Not solid award winning stuff by no means, but I would rate them 6.5-7 of 10 without haste.

Anyone play them both?  My concern is the story mainly.  Dark Sectors kind of gets lost in the gunfire and frisbee action and when I finally sit down to play through Jericho I wonder how well the story remains intact so that halfway through Im not asking who what where and why all over again.  That could seperate these two titles in my opinion.

Re: Lets compare Dark Sector and Jericho
I preferred Dark Sector personally. I found Jericho boring. But I agree, they are both around the 7/10 mark. They are just weak in different areas.
I’ve experiments to run.
There is research to be done.
On the people who are still alive.

Re: Lets compare Dark Sector and Jericho
LOL Same here i bought them both on the cheap as you say.Well i started to play Jericho a few months ago cause iam a big Clive Barker fan and i just couldnt get into it.Seems like a cool game except for having to use all the members of your team in order to play.At least thats what i got out of it.I like a game where you have only one person to control not 5.Thats the only thing i didnt like about it so far anyway.I guess i will have to try again one day maybe i will like it more.Now as for Dark Sector that game kicked butt.I just cleared the game yesterday.Awsome game loved it.The story line was good,the graphics were awsome and the whole glaive weapon was very cool to throw and kill with.

Re: Lets compare Dark Sector and Jericho
i read clive barker, and love most the films made from his books...hellraiser(the original) and candyman(the original) are amoung my favorites, so i was stoked about a new clive barker game...the gore in this polished turd are the only "barker-ish" elements in this game...best part, i paid full price on release day way back when, same with dark sector release day..imma sucker, in dark sector i kept looking for a dog to throw that glaive at, and in jericho, i kept looking for a bright spot, but like you, i rate em about a 6/10

2/75 Hooaah!

Re: Lets compare Dark Sector and Jericho
Well Dark Sector brought me in but Jericho hasnt, even with easy GS to be had, I cant be bothered to play it being its just not grabbing me like I would have hoped!  I will probably beat it anyway, but I wont be playing it everyday like Dark Sector, just a bit here and there.

Re: Lets compare Dark Sector and Jericho
I payed around $8 for Dark Sector and $10 for Jericho. I enjoyed Dark Sector far more than I did Jericho. It was a pain just to get the easy 1000GS, not because it was hard, but because the game sucked a lot of quantum singularity.

I love both games. I haven't done it for a while but I'll often pick up one or the other just to play a few levels.

Vs: Re: Lets compare Dark Sector and Jericho
Dark Sector was stunningly good game and i didint even expect anything from it when my brother lent it to me.

Jericho was at start very,very,very frustrating game and i had to  take many week lasting brakes from it but when i did get to crusade part it all started feel better and i actually enjoyed playing it. There was still some frustrating parts because of lousy game mechanics but it still left okay impression and i actually did all the achievments too later on.

Jericho's story actually remains intact and explains more as it moves along. It's a harder game overall, but the atmosphere is beautiful. Dark Sector was great too, but much more action oriented. Both awesome games with small flaws.
