On the road again.


4. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic

There’s an entire galaxy out there for you to explore. Filled to the brim with planets, aliens, and creatures all stemming from the Star Wars universe. In Knights of the Old Republic, you take on the role of a Jedi (or Sith?) and travel across familiar and new sights on an important mission.

If you’ve ever dreamt of donning a lightsaber and wielding the force (and really, who hasn’t?), then this series will fill that void in your heart. You’re given complete freedom to build your character, selecting attributes, skills, feats, and force powers, as you carve a flashing swathe through your enemies. An enormity of dialogue options allows you to be whomever you please.

Classic red VS blue.

Are you a true Jedi Knight, glowing with peace and serenity? Or are you a passionate Sith whose heart is aflame with hate and desire? Of course, you can even be a sarcastic jackass who couldn’t care less—but secretly harbors a heart of gold.

In each installment, you journey from planet to planet aboard the Ebon Hawk, a smuggler’s ship. You’re accompanied by a colorful cast of quirky characters, each with their own thoughts and alignment. From a young and brash Jedi prodigy to a murderous assassin droid who admonishes any organic for being a “meatbag”. Except for the master, of course.

Once the lore-rich world of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic has ensnared you with its intriguing mystery and deep story full of twists and turns, you’ll have a hard time wrestling free.
