i would have to say no.Knights of the old rebublic is closercloser to dragon age. but id say mass effect is way different gameplay wisethan Biowares normal formula. Does it hold up? yeah i have to say the combat in ME is fun and challenging.Is Knights of the Old Republic similar t ...
Does KOTOR hold up? I've already played ME1 and ME2 and loved both. I've heard good things about KOTOR so I was just wondering if I should pull the trigger on it.

If you can get past the older graphics and the little different combat, then you will like it a lot. Its very much like Mass effect. Biotic powers, force powers. You get a ship as well and get to go to other planets. Have conversations, squad members. They are very similiar.
kotor=best game on xboxMass Effect 1 + 2=best games on 360however, this is where the similarities end, as KOTOR is turned based, using the Dungeons and Dragons D20 turned based combat system, not the third person shooter mechanics of mass effectdragon age: origins uses the same system from KOTOR, however, and is much more complex than ME, so it is much more similar to KOTOR than ME ever will be, at least in regards to combatME is similar to KOTOR in that the stories are both space operas, other than that, they arent very similar at alli do recommend getting KOTOR, and its sequel, as they are some of the best games ever made imo

Well I hated KOTOR with a passion Im glad to hear that ME is different so I mite get the first one and if I like it I will get ME2
If you haven't played KOTOR, do it now!! The game has aged very well IMO, and it's still top 2-3 games I've ever played.
It's hard to find, and is pretty expensive.
Yes, they are very similar. Knights of the Old Republic is to Mass Effect what System Shock is to Bioshock. The combat mechanics are the most significant differences, but the core elements of each games are pretty similar. KoTR is a more of a ''traditional'' RPG. The graphics quality may somewhat affect your enjoyment of the game after seeing Mass Effect's high quality textures, but it remains to this day one of the best Star Wars games ever made. (The alien languages are not very convincing, however. I disliked the way the game constantly looped the same sound files for different dialogues.)And Bastila can still hold her own against Miranda.
Yes, Mass Effect1 and 2 reminded me alot of KOTOR.
The main difference is ME series has some shooter aspects, while KOTOR is 100% rpg and ME series are maybe 50-50.
[QUOTE=''gbpackers94'']It's hard to find, and is pretty expensive.[/QUOTE]If you have a decent PC then you can get the game for 5$.If you are definatly looking for the xbox version then you can find a used copy for about 10$ (just hard to find sometimes)

Keep dreaming.

Definitely get KOTOR. Personally, I enjoyed KOTOR ten times more than ME. But that's my opinion.
KotOR is one of the best games ever storywise. Way better than Mass Effect (and I love Mass Effect).
they are very similar, there is too much to even name.. if u played ME1 and ME2 u will notice
but yea its a great game, prob the best 2 games on the xbox along w/ morrowind
