Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (2003)

The success of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic wasn’t just due to the fact that it was a Star Wars RPG (and therefore the ultimate dream of nerds everywhere). The game offered a highly polished and authentic Star Wars universe, complete with force powers, lightsabers and a thrilling story with enough twists and turns to rival even the original trilogy.

The weight of your actions, both good and bad, determined which side of the force you ultimately became aligned with. KOTOR, as it's affectionately known, more than deserved the numerous game of the year accolades that were bestowed upon it.
