the story is connected so playing 1 first is the obvious choice.
and yeah like CC said, they both rock and are well worth playing.

I wonder though how it will feel playing it so close to MassEffect...

Should be a pleasant surprise after MassEffect. Far better setting, less sucky combat, much better character customization, better stories, etc. Only thing MassEffect had going for it was the music.
Personally I much prefer KOTOR 2 over KOTOR 1 though; a much deeper game story/character-wise, and Kreia is definitely a candidate for a Best NPC Ever award.

Anyone been following the progress of that KOTOR 2 restoration project? If they're still doing it I think I'll wait with the Sith Lords replay.

Hmm if the Restoration Project is that close to finish, think I'll start with Kotor 1 already.. are there any mods that add new content for Kotor 1? Found plenty of retextures, new items etc., but after so many times I could use with some new areas/quests, if those even exist.

Just some advice. If you have a Creatvie Sound Card +Vista. Get "Creative ALchemy" It will allow you to run older "Direct Sound 3D" games in EAX + it will eliminate the graphic/movement choppiness! I thought I was going to give this game a miss to (see the Fallout thread) but installed ALchemy and now it runs smooth as a baby's bottom.

That's just amazing, exactly what I wanted. Think I'll wait until he finishes the 2nd part tho, hopefully the restoration project will finish by that time as well so I can play both games with the mods.

Shows some things about it that might interest you.
Plus it seems there is a closed beta being tested by the development team so we might see a release soon.

One more thing I found out playing this on VISTA. Start the game from the SWKOTOR.EXE IN THE MAIN KOTOR FOLDER!!!!! The choppiness came back and I did some searching, and it worked.

Oh how I envy you playing Kotor 1 & 2 for the first time. Wish I could do that, both are two of the greatest games ever imo although I prefer the second as its alot darker and the plot is more complex. Not to mention being able to run around on Nar Shada which is as seedy and corrupted as I imagined it would be. The handmaiden chickas are interesting aswell.
Kotor 1 had a slugish Kashyyyk which was very boring and poorly designed imo. Could have been so much better with a little more work put on the planet.
Do we dare hope for a finale in Kotor3???

I really hope Revan will make a comeback in Kotor 3, and as the darkside version, lightsiders are such pussies.

Yeah that'd be really great thing to have, the thing with RPG's is that even if they offer you an evil path, you'll still end up killing the same end boss, there's very rarely much difference (tho granted Kotor did this better than most, darkside end cutscene for Kotor 1 was pwn). But yeah, a truly different, branching experience based on your alignment would fit a game like Kotor 3 perfectly.

For me its not the 1st time but. I played it on PC when it came back in 2003...was it?
Some stuff does come back like an old memory playing it, but some stuff feels new. And yea, lets hope for a III.

story-wise, kotor 1 is way ahead of kotor 2 (which still has one of the best stories in a rpg , so that only tells you , how damn good kotor 1 is), but kotor 2 added a lot of additional stuff to the gameplay, which are better than in the first imo. I.e. better inventory and wear screens etc, more customizations, and all in all better UI and GUI. But all in all, both are "must-play" titles for sure. I especially like the whole good/bad side aspect, which lets you replay the game a totally different way.

Funny you should say that, there was some deleted content brought back in a mod for KOTOR 2 that showed Revan after you defeated Darth Nihilus. It turns out he did find the true sith but he wants to you tell Bastlia to reconnect there force bond. However you never really got to tell her.

Both are great, but 1 had a better story and most importantly better ending(s).
2 was a little deeper, story was pretty good still but you can see how rushed it was at the end.
Play them in order, it's better that way.
HK-47 is one of the best NPC characters in any game ever.

Yeah HK-47 was name. Wish they would make a game about him assassinating key targets for Revan.
