Jade Empire: Special Edition Review

The folks at Armchair General Magazine have taken the time to review Jade Empire: Special Edition, giving the PC version of BioWare’s RPG an overall score of 75%.

Make no mistake, Jade Empire is certainly an experience to be had for gamers of all styles from RPG fanatic to fighter aficionado, as there’s a little something for everyone buried within the tomes of quality storyline and unique game play mechanics. However, if the gamer in question has already played Jade Empire on the Xbox from beginning to end, and everywhere in between, then Jade Empire: Special Edition is certainly not a good buy to be had. To such a gamer, the translation is a disappointing one. Rough controls, blurry FMV sequences and a lack of “new” things within will turn off even the most die-hard Jade Empire fan. But, for everyone else, dig in. It is one heck of a ride.
