Would be great with a patch for Tie Fighter CE making it work properly on a machine with XP installed.

My perfect "Best of Star Wars" PC pack would include the following:

Dark Forces
Jedi Knight + Mysteries of the Sith
Jedi Knight 2
Battlefront 2
Xwing + Tie Fighter CE
Knights of the Old Republic

I know I'm in the minority when I say that I thought Empire at War and Republic Commando were boring.

I didn't much care for Battlefront, but I've been looking for an excuse to pick up Republic Commando and Empire at War. This pack is pretty badass, overall.

If they did a volume 2 that covered the older Star Wars games, that'd be even more awesome.

I blow my nose at this compilation. $40 for Xwing, Tie Fighter, Xwing Vs. Tie Fighter, Dark Forces 1 + 2, all on one Windows XP DVD would have been much better (and more profitable).

Wow. Flashback to the Best of Star Wars compliation I bought in like '96. I think it's cool another one is coming - but some of those games are a little questionable. Oh well though, it's cheap.

Thats supposed to be lucasart's "best of" for their starwars line.
While it might be a pretty good deal for $40 especially with kotor, I think the names a little misleading since the pack doesn't include Tie Fighter or Dark Forces. More like best of the recent years.

Still its pretty cool they're doing these compilations again, reminds me of getting Dark Forces, Rebel Assault 1&2, and some other games in a big pack at costco when i was a kid.

$29.95 would be a good deal for that much gaming goodness but yeah it needs Jedi Academy and probably Kotor 2 (even though it's not as good) for completeness.

$39.95 seems like too much not to include those two other games.
