Star Wars Week 14 Sep, 2010 / 7 comments

September 12th to September 19th, it's Star Wars Week over at Steam. Star Wars games are on sale. That means the entire Steam Star Wars catalogue goes for $49.99, and, as of the the time of writing, The Force Unleashed goes for $7.50. Might as well check-out pirate adventure game Jolly Rover while you're there, since it's now on sale and going at $4.99.

So, do or don't, there is no try, yada yada yoda. It's not every week that it's Star Wars week, unless you're this guy, where it's Star Wars week every minute, especially in the shower.

    Actually the promotion on Steam is called Lucasarts week, not Star Wars week. However so far there have only been Star Wars games on sale but I'm holding out hope that Monkey Island 2 goes on sale as I've yet to pick it up. The fact that it's on sale for iPhone makes it more likely be one of the deals.


    Hah, you know, as I was writing the post I kept saying that I'd missed something. "Star Wars Week" was supposed to be a joke - a little dig at what hopefully isn't the restructuring happening there right now - but I then completely forgot to clarify its real name was "LucasArts Week". I'll do that if a non-SW game goes on sale.

    Apparently Monkey Island 2 SE on iPhone is going for 59p/$.99 for a limited time only.

    It's true, it's true! I grabbed it for 59p last night, even though I'm unlikely to play through it on the iPhone. For 59p, what could go wrong?

    If you like adventure games and Monkey Island in particular, you really owe it to yourself to give Jolly Rover a try. Grab the demo at least - which coolly if you buy the full game after playing the demo you can start from where you left off.

    Force Unleashed is just about worth £5... but maybe not on PC. It has been very badly ported, and even after the patch you'll still find the sound dropping glitch.
