Jade Empire has been on our 'most wanted' list for pretty much as long as we can remember. Ever since we first learned about BioWare's highly original take on a martial arts RPG we've been postively salivating at the prospect of one of the world's leading RPG developers giving the treatment to a hacky socky beat-'em-up role-playing game.

After giving Jade the full-on two continents one massive preview treatment recently, the game's so close now we can almost taste it; and we recently sat down with BioWare Joint CEO Dr Greg Zeschuk to get his latest thoughts on the game now it's almost finished and to learn more about BioWare's plans for Dragon Age, it's next big PC title and the prospects for the RPG as it goes forward into the next generation.
