and not only that you will want a RPG for Xbox. ;)

I think Bioware has heard your cries. You gotta read the cover story in GI for Oct. The end of 2004 should be a perfect time to get an Xbox. :D

Jade Empire is set in a ancient an mysterious land, where the Imperial China's tradition mixes with Mayan and Aztec architecture giving birth to a really impressive context. In this mystical world you'll be a young martial arts student, trying to gain the respect and admiration of your teacher and the townsfolk.

You'll have to set off in a long journey across the land that makes the world of Jade Empire, developing your skills and building a reputation that, like Fable, will precede you anywhere you go. You'll be able to be good or evil, changing the rest of your voyage through your actions.

Acting like wise warrior you'll bring honor and riches to your village and the combat school you chose, getting new habitants and others inspired by your journey. On the contrary, assuming a negative portfolio you'll be branded a bandit in your hometown.

The game sounds interesting but I'll be keeping a close eye on how combat shapes up. If it's like Bioware's usual real time/turn based (however the heck that works (don't bother explaining it to me (no really, I'm serious)) (is this the right number of brackets?(yeah, you can answer that one))) system, I don't know. I guess I can wait for it on X-box 2 if that happens.

SOLO PER XBOX!!!!

That looks damn good...we have an American dev behind a Japanese project...interesting...and about the battle system...put it this way, what takes 10 minutes in Final Fantasy takes about 1 minute in KOTOR which will probably be similar. I think it's the best battle system ever implemented in a RPG as I didn't get bored with it.
