Umm, not even. I'm not much of an RPG lover but Mass Effect kick's Jade Empire's booty ten ways til Sunday. And even then, KOTOR beats them all hands down, being an older game and all.
Plus, Baldur's Gate II/Planescape/etc destroy all of those games in brutal fashion. (Haven't played ME, to be fair, but I can't imagine it being better than the two I mentioned.)

I've never been able to finish Jade Empire.
And I can never replay KotOR. I want to. But I can't get past that first world. It bores the hell out of me.
I've replayed KotOR 2 a couple times, and it's always sweet.
I tried replaying Mass Effect, but I couldn't make it to the first mission before I got bored.

Really? Taris was by far my favorite planet in KotOR for setting the atmosphere of the game and I was fairly disappointed with most of the other ones.
Anyway, favorite villains would probably be Darth Traya from KotOR II and the Progenitor Keepers from Homeworld 2 (if they count as villains, that is).

I can't really put Knights of the Old Republic or Mass Effect on different levels. Knights of the Old Republic had a much better plot, but Mass Effect had more story, much better gameplay, and just as much replay value.

I'll vote for HK-47 in Star Wars Galaxies; the game has totally gone downhill but beating him (especially in the old days when you could beat him solo) always felt sooooooooo good.

Kefka
I second that. Final Fantasy VI's Kefka is an all time great villain, bound to be one of the strongest, and one with a greater reputation. And then mama's boy had to show up... just because he has long silver hair, wears black leather, and has a large sword, he steals Kefka's crowd... (Sephiroth referance...)
 - One of the greatest and most memorable quotes.
 Kefka is awesome...
 And we all know it!!!

I'm surprised how often he ends up being used as a villain (see also SWG). When I first watched ESB, I thought he was the dorkiest lookin' of the bunch.

...who?
Anyway, Taris does bore the heck out of me. It's like torture. I enjoyed it during the first time I played the game, but I can't get through it again no matter how many times I try.
As for Mass Effect...I think I can't replay it because I was trying to go over it a second time as an evil character. It just seemed more difficult to be evil in this game than in, say, KotOR II.
Being evil in KotOR 2 brought out some great reactions from the supporting cast, everyone worried about you, lecturing you, etc. It just seemed kind of real, I guess.
Maybe I'll play Mass Effect again as a good guy once more. But I don't know if I could stand hearing "Enemies everywhere!" every two seconds.
