  Good Points: GREAT storyline. Brilliant dialogue. Interesting/funny characters. Fun MINI Games!

  
  

  Bad Points: SHORT! TOO EASY! Repetitive fights. Ridiculously easy bosses.
  Super easy puzzles. Not challenging enough.

  
  

  General comments: I played this game for the first time over the weekend, after having just finished Star Wars KOTOR2 (excellent game) made by the same company that created this game.
  The basic premise is the same, you must choose to aid/help people whilst playing this game, or give into the evil side and hurt/rob/intimidate them.
  The game is fun, but lacks any sort of challenge what so ever.
  Easy bosses, repetitive fight scenes and VERY easy puzzles.
  The entire time I played this, I was waiting for the hard part.
  I completed every quest in this game in under 13 hours of gameplay. The kicker is-I took my time and enjoyed this game, I did not rush.
  
  The mini games are some of the most fun, as the resemble an old version of 1942 for the NES system as you fly the machine and destroy the enemies in a 2D scrolling venue.
  
  The story is engrossing and second to none. The power ups and level ups are simple and easy to attain, as is currency in the game, enabling you to buy whatever you want at any time.
  
  I am disappointed, not by storyline or poor gameplay, but by lack of effort by the designers to make this game longer, more challenging and include more side games and mini quests.
  
  I will play this game, again though with an evil character to see if the storyline diverges.
  
  A must own and must play, just don't get your hopes up too high.

  Jade Empire has a storyline that is very interesting and keeps you wanting to know more and takes some unexpected turns that makes you want to learn more, and they have plenty of little things like your Amulet and new techniques and training you can learn that keep wanting to play so you can get that better gem or skill. Good graphics so as far as I am concerned. The worst part is the fact that the battle gets repetitive and easy to master. You can dodge attacks extremely easily and just mash th ...
