toms Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 Given that there are so many KOTOR fans on here I'm surprised no one has posted anything about Jade Empire yet! Its definately been getting some pretty good reviews: (IGN: 9.9, Gamezone: 9.8, Yahoo! games: 10) Current average: 94%, 5th best on xbox http://www.gamerankings.com/htmlpages2/918890.asp It looks more action based than KOTOR, but with an even better set of good->bad dialogue options. And has the same writers as the first KOTOR.... I think i may have to grab this one! Anyone tried it yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swphreak Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I actually broke down and ordered it last night. I need a new XBox game because Mercenaries is getting old after the third time around. It certainly looks good. Hey astro, why don't you ask your friends in asia to get you an Xbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I does sound awesome, but I really wish that it was more of a Japanese style with samurai and the like. Just a personal preference... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ET Warrior Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 No, because i'm not ranting, merely stating that I will eventually buy it PLUS, it's already out, so I can't change anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Sitherino Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 Fable sucked from the beginning, so screw it. Jade Empire will own though, because you can't go wrong with martial arts. Now to get an xbox.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeKatarn Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I'd SO get it if it wasn't M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abcd1234 Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I am looking forward to getting this game. I have no doubts that BioWare made this game as impressive as KOTOR, a game I thoroughly enjoyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acrylic Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 Originally posted by legameboy Me wants me Dragon Age. What does that have to do with Jade Empire? Anyways, I really wanna get this game, along with other games like God of War, Ninja Gaiden, etc, but I just don't have the money to buy them all, and the time to play them all. Eventually, once the price drops, I will get Jade Empire! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/rpg/jadeempire/review.html After reading this review, I'm not so sure about the quality of this game anymore. Sure, it's only one in the middle of a wave of great reviews but it still worries me a bit. What worries me most is the lenght of the game. Every reviewer states that it took them around 20 hours to finish the game. It would normally take me less time to finish dropping the time to between 15 and 18 hours. For an RPG, that's very short.

Mike Windu Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 I will wait for the PC version cos I don't have an XBOX. And besides, I'm still trying to get KOTOR for PC even though it's 20 bucks... >_> Originally posted by Prime I does sound awesome, but I really wish that it was more of a Japanese style with samurai and the like.

legameboy Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 Just to help you all I am going to have to give you the hard truth. Jade Empire is not coming out for the PC. It is an X-box X-clusive title. Dragon Age on the other hand, is coming out for the PC. It is not a copy of Jade Empire as far as I can tell, but little information has been released besides the fact that it is being developed.

toms Posted April 14, 2005 Author Share Posted April 14, 2005 Originally posted by BongoBob Damnit man, why does every good game have to be rated M, and why do I have parents that suck Think yourself lucky you have responsible parents... otherwise you'd be out shooting up schools right now. YOu know i'm right! ps/ Thats 22 hours with a bare minimum of exploration. KOTOR was supposed to be 30 hours, but it sure took me longer than that the first time. All games are getting shorter than they used to be, becuse it is so time consuming to make all the graphics. It used to be that allt he levels used the same designs and textures, so making a game longer was easy... now everything uses unique models and textures and games are getting shorter because of it.

El Sitherino Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 >_> Mario's not M. And as we all know the Super Mario series is the best game series EVER along with the Super Star Wars series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeKatarn Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 Yeah and the Metroid series, but I mean all new games coeming to x-box that are any good, I can't even play Halo two, OR EVEN HALO ONE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
