While I consider Jade Empire a rather ordinary game, I think that its soundtrack is one of the best game soundtracks ever. Jack Wall made an awesome music, full of
genuine, oriental tunes. My favourites are Anthem of the Tyrant, Empire at War, Silk Fox Theme and Way of the Open Palm
It is a rare thing that a really good game soundtrack is published. Groundbreaking KOTOR soundtracks of Jeremy Soule and Mark Griskey weren't released while real trash is often available. I hope that release of JE OST will break the bad habit of neglecting game music, that industry is practicing.
