I have been a subscriber to gamespot complete for almost 2 years. I chose Gamespot as my gaming site because their reviews are usually right on, as far as being honest and detailed in their reviews. When I saw Greg's score of 8.4 and I saw IGN's 9.9 (not to mention Gamespy's perfect 10), I knew IGN and MANY others saw something different in this game than he did not . I bought the game and after playing it for a few hours(nonstop cause it's that good), I feel this is THE REAL game of the year contender for XBOX. With all the hype of Halo2, Doom3 and other highly anticipated titles, I did not hear much about this game until it was released. Now that I have played it and experienced this unique RPG, I am lovin' it and would highly recommend it to anyone that has an xbox and just likes well-developed, graphically-pleasing,fun games that will make you want to play thru it again ,before you even finish the 1st time playing. I am going to go play Jade Empire right now, actually. So I am wrapping this up. Do yourself a favor and go buy this game. Even if you have to trade in all those other ones u never finished because you got bored. You dont have to play another game for a long time, after you start playing this one. Enjoy! Cant wait for Jade Empire 2!!!
