Replaying (after buying on Steam): Star Wars: knights of the Old Republic

The spiritual predecessor to Mass Effect. A lot of the story and game design elements from Mass Effect can be found in this game. Its a new Star Wars story set thousands of years before the event of the films so Bioware had a lot of leeway to create an original and compelleing story and they did just that with this game. The story practically feels like an entire film trilogy rolled into one with its own "I am your Father!" style moment 2/3rds of the way into the game. The character sub-stories and interaction and the choice of Light vs Dark element really add to the overall experience to make this not only the best Star Wars based game ever created, but one of the greatest RPG experiences ever.
