The Force is strong with this Humble Bundle.
Now that we've gotten the obligatory forced Star Wars quote out of the way, let's get down to business: this Humble Bundle is the real deal. If you like video games and Star Wars (honestly, who doesn't?) then you owe it to yourself to get in on this.
If you are unfamiliar with Humble Bundle, it's a digital storefront where users can pay what they want to get some awesome deals on games, comics and more. Paying more than the average donation will snag you some extra titles, as will paying over a certain monetary amount. The best part is you choose exactly where your money goes, whether it is to the game developers, Humble Bundle, to charity or a split among all three.
For literally a penny (if you so desire) you can be the proud owner of some of the most acclaimed Star Wars games of all time -- Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Star Wars: Dark Forces and Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy. Each game is vastly different from the other, but they are all a must-play for Star Wars fans.
Pay more than the average donation of $11.36 and you will receive another batch of games, including the criminally under-rated Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II, Star Wars: Republic Commando and the always popular Star Wars Battlefront II. Once again, each game comes from a different genre, meaning no matter your gaming tastes, there is a Star Wars game for you. Humble Bundle is promising to unveil even more Star Wars titles to come that will automatically be unlocked for those who have already paid the above average price.
If you are a big spender (and by "big" I mean an additional 64 cents), you can also unlock Star Wars: Empire at War Gold Edition and both Star Wars: The Force Unleashed titles for $12. The Force Unleashed games aren't fantastic, but there is some pleasure to be derived from ripping a Star Destroyer out of orbit with your mind. Strategy fans will find plenty to enjoy with Empire at War, however.
So there you have it: 9+ Star Wars games for as low as $12. This, combined with all of the classic Star Wars titles making their way to Good Old Games, recent news about the Star Wars Battlefront reboot and the completely badass Star Wars Battle Pod arcade machine, makes for one great time to be a Star Wars gamer.
