Conclusion:
Jericho ran pretty smoothly on my GeForce 550 Ti. There were a few moments of stutter with everything on high, but you can always run it in Openbox desktop to gain some Frames Per Second.
It is a very linear game, but has some cool sci-fi and horror elements to please any gamer.

Good guide, this game runs good with default prefix (xp prefix) without problems

This game was cheaper but not stay now on steam store, you can find on tf2outpost but price up considerably, on promotion on cost around 1.5us but now asking 8us minimum and if more time are passed up much more

And if you want config file is very customizable: turn off or on other options with not appears on game, example: postprocessing effects and other things

And thanks for mentionated videogameplay
