Coming out of BioWare, you can always expect a good RPG element in this beautiful fighting game. The game offers good and evil routes for your character which make the replay value really high on this one. I actually finished the game 3 times using different routes. The development team did alot of research watching piles of king fu video tapes which definitely help naming and making different attacks in the game. The special edition I got has one more selectable character, a monk that's related to the story line. The game takes about 20 hours to comlete and it can be alot of more if you emphasize on solving side quests. This brings alot of freedom to the gameplay. I have to thank the friendly development team for signing my copy of Jade Empire, you guys are great!! Looking forward to playing the new PC version and the awe-dropping Mass Effect soon.
