What SW game to play first.

So I did buy the bundle of SW games.  Now I've got something like 20 odd 
SW games I haven't played.  What should I try first?

I looked up posts I made about the one's I've played, which I don't want 
to replay right now:

KotoR - played through 3 times, loved it.
Empire at War - O.K. RTS
Battlefront - good with friends, meh solo.
Jedi Knight II Jedi Outcast - liked a lot, except for platforming
I think I also played Jedi Knight: Jedi Accademy which I didn't like.
X-Wing - don't remember much about other than didn't like it. And the 
towing, hated that.
I also played one of the Lego Star wars which I didn't care for, but got 
those for the son anyway.


So I think that leaves:

Battlefront II
The Clone Wars - Republic Heroes
Dark Forces
The Force Unleashed II
Galactic Battlegrounds - Clone Campaigns
Jedi Knight - Dark Forces
Jedi Knight - Mysteries of the Sith
Knights of the Old Republic II - Sith Lords
Rebel Assault I & II
Rebellion
Republic Commando
Rogue Squadron 3D
Starfighter
Tie Fighter - Special Edition
X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter - Balance of Power Campaigns
X-Wing Alliance

Which of those have you played that left the best impression?

I'd go with Knights of the Old Republic II or Jedi Knight: Dark Forces.
The former is a bit rough around the edges but otherwise has everything
that made the original KotOR a great game.  I prefered Jedi Knight:
DF over Jedi Knight: Outcast, though the graphics are noticibly more
primitive.  You might also want to try the original Dark Forces game,
but it gets pretty hard at the end, so I've never managed to finish it.

Given the ones you have all ready played I'll say
Knights of the Old Republic II - Sith Lords
Remember to search around and get the Fan made
enhancements as the basic game is considered unfinished & messy.

There's no towing, just space combat. Some missions are hard but the
updated edition added some easier alternative missions.
