Hm, I thought Microsoft would publish the PC port themself. Seems they don't own the IP.

If they fix the loading in the Arena part I'm buying this.

This is the only Jade I need on my PC.
No DirectX9 required, either.

Story was good and of course the voice acting was superb. Just that Arena loading thing was really bad.

Yeah, this isn't the first time they're taking MS's sloppy seconds.
If there is any effort put into this port, I could end up being interested. The Xbox games had lots of technical flaws, and I think a beefy PC will fix them. A beefy PC will not, however, fix the smallish dungeons and sluggish combat.

Did they fix the broken combat system?

It is, framerate gets pretty bad at times but it might have been like that on xbox 1 too, dunno.bluemax said:

Jade Empire is the reason I'm not so excited about Mass Effect. Really really bad, I thought. And short.

Jade Empire is short and pretty easy but enjoyable. Don't go in expecting too much and you'll have fun with it.
It's pretty much a shorter KotOR with a more action-based battle system and without the weight of the Star Wars universe behind it.

Surprised no one has mentioned her big ass nose.
Anyway JE was a decent game, I just think my expectations for it were too high. If you're a Bioware fan and don't already have the Xbox version then I'd reccomend it since it's only $40. Comes with some nice extras too...

Also she looks like an under developed teenager...
She has a very nice, firm facial structure that is sort of handsome, but in a very beautiful and feminine way. Kind of like Dr. Mossman from Half Life 2. I like chicks with features like that, Morgan Webb and that ugly man from the Wii commercial have fugly manjaws.ElectricBlue187 said:

She looks ok, better than Jade, but neither are worth salivating over...

I'm not that picky, and I wouldn't consider myself a player, but I've been with women that look better than both of the women mentioned in this thread. I really could care less if a woman is famous or not, that just means she has more money to buy make up to make her look better than she really is. I like my women developed, tall with long legs, and with a decent looking face, that's all.

The 'anyone who doesn't think this girl I like is super-hot must be a slobbering mongoloid' card is way overplayed around here. And even if some of the critics are less than 'prize catches', how does it matter? If they don't find the girl attractive, they don't find her attractive. What does what they see in the mirror every morning have to do with somebody else's flaws? It's like the people who argue that you're not qualified to criticize a game/movie/piece of art unless you can produce something better yourself (an idiotic line of reasoning that's a pet peeve of mine
).Oh, and for the record, I think Jade Raymond's cute in a 'girl next door' kind of way.

My understanding is that it is pretty much the same thing. There is one extra character to play with and a couple of new fighting stances and that's about it. You also get (apparently) a better interface than the Xbox controller could provide and higher resolution graphics (the screenshots actually look good for the game).
I'll pick it up when it is on sale since I never bothered with the Xbox version (not a big fan of the console gaming).

Okay, but do they need to share? Someone posts a pic of a cute and intelligent woman on the board and suddenly there's a legion of assholes in the thread pointing out her ****ing jawline or her "gigantic" nose. Are you like this in real life? If your friends bring their gfs over to your place, do you scream out their flaws? "OH JESUS CHRIST JOHN THAT BITCH'S NOSE IS BIGGER THAN MY FIST!!!" "A JAW LIKE THAT BELONGS IN THE UFC!!! I WANT TO PUNCH HER!!!" "DO YOU LET HER ON YOUR FURNITURE WITH THOSE POINTY KNEES?!!" It just strikes me as completely unnencessary in a gaming discussion, as if some people will just take any opportunity to ostracize women from the anonymity of the Internet.
Also, i think it's interesting that making fun of a man's weight is intantly bannable, but pointing out the dumbest shit with regards to women is perfectly acceptable.
