Not only that, but it's a great RPG, with memorable characters, a compelling storyline, an atmospheric world (well, worlds), and a fun Force-based morality system that shapes your character's powers and personality. It's set 4,000 years before the Skywalker Saga, which means it's a rare opportunity to witness first-hand the ancient, previously unseen history of everyone's favourite galaxy far, far away. Developed by BioWare and released in 2003, Knights of the Old Republic is one of the best Star Wars games ever made. For some people, the biggest announcement at this month's PlayStation Showcase wasn't God of War Ragnarök or Marvel's Wolverine-it was a remake of an 18-year-old Star Wars RPG.
