you should play Knights of the Old Republic for either XBox or PC. Then, when you're done, get the sequel. It tells the story of the Old Republic, which is thousands of years before Lucas' story. It's after Exar Kun's era, who is one of the greatest of the Jedi/Sith Lords. In order to explain, I have to start with the Mandalorian war.
The Mandalorians launched a campaign starting on the Outer Rim, devastating planets before the republic could send their support. The Jedi Council was reluctant to send the Jedi in aid of the republic. However, several Jedi ignored the wishes of the council and answered the call, unable to ignore the millions of innocents being slaughtered by Mandalore's forces.
The two Jedi who led those answering the call were Revan and Malak, knights who showed great potential in the force. Revan was a brilliant strategist, respected by the Mandalorians, and eventually led the republic to victory on Malachor V. While on the outer rim, however, Revan and Malak were changed. They talked the forces loyal to them into defecting and starting a new Sith legion, returning to the galaxy with a massive fleet, on a campaign to destroy the Old Republic. And so began the Jedi Civil War, which plays out over the course of the first KotOR game.
