The graphics are not really as good, but they are not bad - you just tweak
the settings for your PC.
But that is the least of the differences.
KotOR is a RPG, meaning that you do not 'aim', you select an attack and your
hit/miss and damage are based on the d20 system.
However, the story, and all the quests and stuff to do in KotOR are what
have made it a big hit even among non-RPGers. It is truly a great game of
epic sweep.

Well, it is more strategy in approaching a battle than skill in a duel.
KotOR is an awesome, epic game. It is not in any way an 'action' game in
the aim and shoot (or swing) style.

Mike, I'd think lightsaber duels that don't require player skillz would be
really boring. For example, I can kick ass against most of the bots in Jedi
Outcast or JA but there are some human players that are just unreal.

I got KOTOR for the X Box, and IMHO, i believe and feel it is no where near
as good as JA or JO, i found the graphics very nice, and the game play and
story line was quite good, just i've realised that i definately don't like
RPG games!

That's the whole thing - if you don't like RPG's, you'll only get so far in
enjoying KotOR. If you like them, you'll likely think that it is one of the
best games ever.
Just like I know there are great RTS and tactical and other-genre games ...
I just don't like the genres.

I finally got my hands on a copy of JA on friday and I have to admit im not
a great lover of FPS, I do prefer a good RPG or RTS anyday.
I found JA good but IMHO I liked KotOR so much more, so much more infact
that i clocked it twice within the first week and a half of owning it,
needless to say i was suffering from a major lack of sleep that week.
I found the story line much more engaging in KotOR the in JA and the general
playability was better as well but as I said earlier im quite impartial
towards RPGs.
anyway thats my 2 cents worth

I played it back-to-back as well ... took longer than a week for me, though
 I tend to clock ~60+ hours per play (I've played through 4 times now and
am starting a 5th).

Find a RPG with a story that is *not* more engaging and deep than any FPS
and I'll show you a new set of coasters Seriously, a good FPS is at best
like a short story, whereas a good RPG should be like an epic novel.

I never thought of it like that before, and now that you mention it that
sounds right, most of the rpg that i have played in the past have been
pretty in depth with the story line.
