Star Wars: Jedi Knight Collection Hits Steam
The Force is now with Steam.
Jedi Knight represents a time when LucasArts made 3D action games that hardcore PC gamers cared about. While it's regrettable that the Jedi Knight isn't keeping up with the times, you can now revisit the good Star Wars games of yesteryear with the release of the Jedi Knight Collection on Steam.
Now you can own all the Jedi Knight games for $19.99. If you're not into getting the whole thing for just under $20, you can purchase the games separately, though you're not getting nearly the same value. Star Wars: Dark Forces and Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II are $4.99 each, while the newer Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast and Jedi Knight: JediAcademy are $9.99 each. The bargain priced one of the lot is Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the Sith at $2.99.

14.99 at Direct2Drive.

I play Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy on my Core i7 + GTX 275. Good games just don't go away. Also playing Total Annihilation (best RTS ever made) on Windows 7 32 bit. WIN!
On a more related note, im already starting to see newer players to the 2004 JKA. Good job Steam, thanks for boosting a deserving game.
Dark Forces 2 and and Mysteries of the Sith both have problems with new systems according to Ars Techinca.
Is this supposed to be a concession to PC gamers for not giving us The Force Unleashed? I already own all of your PC games, Lucas Arts. Why don't you reward your PC fans with a port of TFU?
Thanks.
Just wish gaming zone was still around so I could relive playing Dark Forces 2 and and Mysteries of the Sith online again.
Dark Forces 2 and and Mysteries of the Sith were some of the best games Lucasarts ever made.
I would love to see the finished remake. For those of you who don't know, they are remaking Dark Forces 1 and 2 to the Jedi Academy engine. Google "Dark forces mod blog" on Google for more info
By the way, they are porting The Force Unleashed for PC.
It's about time... I'm stoked.

I've got every old Star Wars game running on a dedicated P4 box, and no I won't be adding The Force Unleashed, I've got some bad ones on there, but none nearly that bad!
Every few years I feel the urge to play all the x-wing and tie fighter games, and the occassional run of KOTOR.
That's a great deal! I remember playing these games when they originally came out, ahhhh, what fond memories
Does anyone else absolutely love the live action video cut scenes in the original Jedi Knight game? Sadly they moved to CG cut scenes in the follow up games...
This would be nice, except I HAVE THEM ALL. Lucas arts get your crap together and stop pretending abandoning one of your most loyal and older audiences can be made up with anything but the forced unleashed. BTW nothing but hackers and glitches in JK2 and JK3 (Aka Jedi Academy). So yea, gave up on multiplayer only a few years ago. Force pull kick / force choke kick spam anyone?
The next thing you know those really really old Star Trek games will be released!
I personally am looking forward to The Force Unleashed for the PC, then someone with a set of balls bigger than a pair of peas with mod it so allow hacking off of limbs.
I'm sorry but hitting someone with a lightsaber and not chopping them into bite sized chunks? What a shower of shite!
ive been playing JKA for years on lugarmod servers i love this game LOL
Those are good games.
I've only finished Jedi Academy on Xbox and played some of Jedi Outcast on PC. I'm tempted to get this...
I wanttt thiss gameee... How to download it ??? Please help me !!!
