You've had the option of playing X-Wing and TIE Fighter (aka some of the finest Star Wars games ever) on modern PCs for a while, but let's face it: you've been waiting to buy them on Steam, haven't you? If so, you now have your chance. X-Wing, TIE Fighter, X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter and X-Wing Alliance have reached Valve's store, complete with their expansion packs. In the case of the first two spaceflight titles, you even have your choice of playing the DOS-based originals or their Windows re-releases. They normally cost $10 each ($30 as part of a bundle), but a promo will knock 10 percent off the price if you pick any of them up by May 7th.
And if you'd prefer to patronize another store, don't worry. Good Old Games has announced that it's adding the Collector's CD-ROM versions of both X-Wing and TIE Fighter to its library, and it'll give you these editions for free if you've already paid for standard copies. All in all, it's good time to be a Star Wars gamer.
