Looks like the KotOR engine with the visuals boosted.

Whoa! The top middle shot!!

Anyway it looks very nice and, having now played about half of KOTOR, I'm very much looking forward to it.

i hope they intend on paying Lucy Liu some royalties (2nd screenshot)

It Looks like they've souped up the KotoR engine some bit, just hope the frame-rate is a little higher this time around. the question is, will Ancient China be as fun as the Star Wars Universe? im not too sure.

hope it keeps the light/dark system, being an evil git is great fun!

(KotoR was my first bioware game so im unaware if its a bioware trade or a one-off)

Apparently it is going to keep the "ligh vs dark" system but of course disguished as martial arts styles.

Looks very tasty to me... been dying for a real Chinese RPG fro quite some time. There do not seem to be a lot around so... excellent.

The environments look fantastic however a lot of the characters have the same chunky torso look the men have in KotOR, which I think makes them look more like Star-Trek characters than Star Wars. Despite having 2-3 x the number of polys per character compared to Knights, the woman in shot #2 still looks quite rough round the edges, I'm not talking about aliasing either. Her jaw's too big too.

But it only stands out so much because it looks potentially stunning.

Looks ace this. The "agent" system sounds very interesting.

I like the fact that Bioware are turning their attention to RPGs with their own rules again. D&D stuff is great, but Jade Empire looks really fresh.

Can't wait.
