 A Japanese Fable July 13, 2005

Great game, it was kinda of hard to get into for me, but once I did I thought it was great. It kind of reminded me of Fable.
 I hate RPG'S but this game rocks April 25, 2005

Like my title says, I am not a fan of RPG'S and have all 3 systems but this game delivers.I love fable and didn't mind KOTOR so I guess I like 3 rpg's.Now KOTOR is an amazing epic RPG but my only complaint was that you dont actualy fight or kill the badies yourself like in 95% of all RPG'S you just point and click on wich enemy to fight AND IT FIGHTS FOR YOU.BUT Jade Empire give you the freedom and to actualy fight and choose wich foe you want to attack as seen in Fable in real time fighting.This is the only way I can stand to play an RPG.I cant stand Final Fantasy and all these other weak games.nOW i KNOW lots of people love there rpg's like FF so if your like me and stay away from the RPG games you need to check this bad boy out, you wont be dissapointed.If you are into great story telling, great action, killer graphics and martial arts mixed with ancient chinese mythology you will dig this game.Its easy enough for basic gamers to just pick up and play and deep enough for hard core players to learn all the special combo's and magic attacks/transformations.Now I also recommend players to play Fable if you enjoyed this game.Now with the NEW Xbox just around the corner its good to be an Xbox owner with all the top notch games you'll be seeing from now till the end of the year like Conker-live and reloaded, Forza motorsport, Halflife 2, Farcry, Pariah,Advent rising,Destry all humans,Moto gp 3,GTA sanadreas,rainbow 6 3 lockdown,suffering 2 and many more.Most of those I mentioned are XBOX ONLY games.So go rent Jade empire for a few nights and see what its all about and decide if this is a game for you.I know I did and cant stop playing it.
Polished and shorter version of KOTOR April 24, 2005

First of all, the 9.9 rating that appears on the box cover is overrated. It's one of the best games to come out this year, but it's closer to a 8.5 or 9.0.For fans who love the immersive storyline of Star Wars - Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR), this is a game certainly not to be missed. Creating a brand new set of characters in a new world is not an easy task, but this is exactly what BioWare accomplished in Jade Empire. The graphics are top-rate, making KOTOR look like a PS2 game. Real-time martial arts action replaces a turn-based fight system, creating a seamless environment. Other reviews complained that using all of the controller buttons made the game too confusing. However, this system is much better than having to memorize combos for fight moves. Compared to KOTOR, the game feels much shorter because there are fewer locations to explore. With fewer side missions, the story felt tighter and more polished, but there wasn't a feeling of freedom as in KOTOR. At times, it feels like you're not solving puzzles as much as simply advancing the plot. Jade Empire is a fantastic, polished, single player RPG with 20-25 hours of gameplay. The only downside is that the game makes you yearn for more. Hopefully, Bioware will release a sequel to this game with a even larger world to explore.
