Jade Empire Preview

GameSpy has written up a preview of Jade Empire, based upon what they saw at this year's Tokyo Game Show. Check it out:
Visually the game is good, although it has a slightly blurred look to it. It's still in heavy development right now, so there's always room for improvement in that area, but gamers will be happy to know that the core foundation of the game is very solid and should prove to be just as versatile as KotOR was. The controls are also good, but can be a little tricky to use while in "Focus" mode. Since the speed of the game slows down if you use Focus, it can be slightly frustrating to string attacks together. These little nitpicks are just that, and knowing Bioware they'll be ancient history by the time the game hits stores early next year.
