Today, after nearly a year and a half of being an Xbox exclusive, Jade Empire arrives on PC as Jade Empire: Special Edition. Is the game worth picking up if you haven't played it before? What about if you already own the Xbox version? Read my review to find out.

You earn quite a few styles as the game progresses, and in the Xbox original, it was more than a little annoying to constantly pause the game and remap fighting styles, as they could only be assigned to the four d-pad directions. The default keys for combat styles in the PC Special Edition are the number keys running along the top of the keyboard, which becomes convenient as you earn fighting styles faster and faster as the game progresses. The only time you will need to remap keys is to move older styles further down the list of commonly used styles; you'll spend quite a bit of time leveling up skills only to find better alternatives along the way, but even so, there's no reason to completely disregard a style you've spent so much time upgrading, as it could still come in handy at some point.
