I would consider $2.50 “nearly free”, as that is the price that Steam is offering Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic for for the next 19 hours from the time of this posting. If for some inexplainable reason you have never played this masterpiece, you now have no excuse not to buy it. Hell, I already own the CD version and I’m thinking about picking it up just for the convenience of Steam.

Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2 box artLucasArts have announced via their Twitter page that all Dark Forces/Jedi Knight games will be made available on Steam and Direct2Drive on September 16. Sounds like all should be interpreted as four games: Star Wars Dark Forces, Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II and the Mysteries of the Sith expansion, Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, and Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy. No word on pricing but looking at how LucasArts has priced titles on Steam thus far it should be reasonable to expect none of these JK games to cost more than USD$10 dollars.

iphoneMIAnother suggestive message via the @LucasArts twitter feed today, implying that we’ll see The Secret of Monkey Island : Special Edition as an iPhone release shortly.


“@lucasartsgames – For our Monkey fans – an iPhone sized wallpaper. No reason. Wink wink nod nod.”

The lovely LucasArts rep who has been updating the twitter feed has also been giving out codes for free steam games, so keep your eyes on that! You have to be quick though. Someone generally works out the missing letter within 2 minutes!
