BG&E was one of very few games to actually get an emotional response out of me. The characters make that game more than anything else, even though the game is great in all areas. Jade is actually my favorite female video game character I think, and in an industry with so few strong female leads she stands out. And she's not sporting a gun or a weapon or running around half naked. She goes against every stereotype. Her only weapons are a simply stick and a camera, and with many games having angry, tough women fighting bad guys, here's a girl who actually spends time meditating.
I could mention a ton of other things I loved about BG&E too(like the great soundtrack), but I'd be rambling.
