Very good choice. You can move and shoot fast and lose health if you jump too high or punch robots. The soundtrack is the OT's. Sound design is so great even menu sounds are memorable. Despite graphical limitations maps can sometimes give a feeling of scale. And everything's wrapped up in a decent plot with live-action cutscenes. The number of points you can distribute among Force powers is determined by the number of secret areas discovered -including in the first levels- so patiently exploring maps pays off in the final boss battle. Powergamers can check all secret areas on Youtube, some of them are cleverly hidden and besides them there's a famous and exceedingly hard to reach easter egg. And it's ideal to get only Light&Neutral or Dark&Neutral Force powers as exclusively picking from one side grants you an extra power later on.
Afterwards Mysteries of the Sith is also worth it. It's not as well-rounded, the plot isn't as great and some levels are a bit dull in design, but all in all it's just as fun. There are more weapons and Force powers, the latter with a more flexible system, and great maps to compensate the blander ones, like finding a target on a spaceport or escaping from a prison. It feels a bit darker and moodier and the final levels have some horror movie aspects. They involve crossing a dreary, mystical marsh -where all weapons except the lightsaber mysteriously cease to work- full of bizarre creatures and creeping into a temple of evil with even stranger opponents.

Jedi Outcast is also excellent but it's on a different engine and flows differently. Jedi Academy adds some things on top of that but isn't as good.
