Some common elements between Bioware RPGs have been a "good" and "evil" meter, the ability to pause in the middle of a battle to tweak your strategy, some of the best story telling in the gaming industry, and dialogue choice with impact on the game world.

Woah... woah...
That is totally wrong.
KotOR is not the framework for "all of [the Bioware RPGs]."
Baldur's Gate and those are the framework. The Infinity Engine, that's where it all started.

And that is why I didn't have any bioware games on the list, they had already done it all prior to this time period, nothing really new was brought out.

You have to remember that most Xbox gamers believe the only games to exist prior to the release of their system of choice were Super Mario Bros, Doom, and Final Fantasy VII.

What story? Crysis wasn't worth the bandwidth I used to download it illegally.

@Proin Drakenzol
I was thinking about the more recent 3D rendered 3rd person RPG's because they bear a more similar resemblance to where Bioware has stylistically been taking their games in recent times. Sure, Baldurs Gate II had stuff like, romance, alignment, and pause/unpause gameplay that were passed on to KotOR, Mass Effect, and Dragon Age. However, in terms of more action based game play KoTOR is more like Mass Effect and Dragon Age. If you want a world to explore you play Baldur's Gate. If you want to kill stuff you play KotOR, ME, or DA. Also, the Dungeons & Dragons rules that are prevalent in Baldur's Gate were almost completely phased out by KotOR. Finally, since KoTOR the skills system has barely changed. It is KotOR's gameplay, mechanics, and user interface that speaks to me when I play the newer games, not Baldur's Gates'.

I played KoToR on my computer and do not own an xbox and am not an xbox gamer. Did you mean to say that I was one of the younger generation of gamers whose gaming experience usually stems from that of a single line of consoles, the xbox and xbox 360 (usually the later)? I can understand why because of the types of games I selected (Halo, GoW, KoTor). I selected the games I did because they contained powerful mechanics that changed the way companies designed their games; regenerative health, cover systems, and alignment impact are still used today, not because I am an uneducated gamer who limits himself to a single line of consoles. Besides, all three games are are available on the PC which is how I played all of them but Halo.
