Jade Empire is graphically on-par with most of the Xbox's current games. It outshines its predecessor, but still falls short of some recent releases such as The Chronicles of Riddick. Most cut scenes are done with the in-game engine and remain impressive. Characters' faces are modeled similarly to KotOR, but stand to look a bit more realistic. Motion capturing is being done by Giant Studios, the MoCap firm behind the Lord of the Rings movies. The game is also aurally impressive, with both background noises and music standing out in the pack with full 5.1 surround sound support.
