As laser pointers go, you could do far worse than this little keychain Lightsaber. I mean think about it; if your job requires you to use a laser pointer, then you might as well have a cool one. And at $15, it’s not like this is a huge monetary investment. As an investment in your social standing amongst your peers, though, this thing ought to pay off in spades.

Okay, who here hasn’t played one of the Jedi Knight games? No one? That sounds ’bout right. Let me just say that the series is one of the best of all time. The story line rich, the graphics always top notch for their time, and it’s Star Wars. What’s not to like? Do you yourself a favor, throw on some trousers and hop onto Steam where you can buy the complete series for $20; most of us are buying it. Sure, a few of the games might be aged, but the latest one, Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, doesn’t look terrible by today’s standards.

Look at these big-head Star Wars USB flash drives! They’re adorable. Ewoks were always adorable, and C-3PO had a certain lovable charm but now even Darth Vader’s getting in on the fun. He’ll lull you into a false sense of security and then do that thing where he chokes you from across the room without actually touching you.

If you happen to both be a Star Wars fan and have a penchant for Far Eastern food, this new gadget might be the right thing for you: lightsaber chopsticks. A Japanese company called Kotobukiya (which also has a US website) is selling three different models.

The red version is aimed at Darth Vader fans for some reason, the green one is for Yoda fans and the blue model is supposedly the right one if you like Luke Skywalker best.

NO FAIR! This lucky whippersnapper surrounds himself with the intimidating protection of a Star Wars AT-AT Imperial Walker every night as he drifts off to sleep. And while it could be argued that the Rebel Alliance did indeed manage to destroy most or all of the AT-AT fleet, let’s just admire the handiwork here and pretend none of that ever happened.

Here comes yet another product line from the unholy union between design Marc Ecko, and Star Wars. I have to be honest however, and admit that I think these watches look pretty cool and.. I might actually have to buy one. At least one. At least the Boba Fett one.

Star Wars fans with ample desk space may want to pick up a cool six pack of bobble head figures over at Woot.com today. The site is selling all six for $30 plus $5 shipping.

The rumors were swirling, swirling! But they’re no longer rumors, now are they? I’m talking, of course, about LucasArts’ huge announcement that they just made: a whole bunch of their old games will be available on Steam beginning on Wednesday.

It’s only $32.99, it includes an auxiliary jack for your iPod, MP3, or CD player, and runs off wall power o one 9-volt battery. Sadly it’s only available for pre-order right now, but heck, you’re not doing anything until August anyway. Just order it and wait.

You guessed correctly (I assume)! It’s a lightsaber. Well, let’s be honest: it’s a glowing rod that projects from the end of your Wiimote and makes lightsaber noises. And, geniuses that they are, the makers decided to make sure this thing didn’t support the MotionPlus add-on. Sure, the game they’re going to bundle it with (Republic Heroes) doesn’t support it either, but come on, just make the bottom end extend a little more.

We’ve seen these flash drives from Mimico before, but the fourth run on the Star Wars series has been updated with “Unmasked” versions of Darth Vader and Clone Captain Rex. One in six Unmasked Mimobot Vaders will reveal Hayden Christensen’s Anakin face while the rest feature the Anakin we’re used to from Episode VI. Mimico will reveal a Luke Skywalker Unmasked Darth Vader Mimobot in July at Comic Con, which will only be available during the show and limited to 500 units. And then there’s Rex from the Clone Wars animated series.

Those crazy Star Wars types. Always like to make a scene. The music came on with no warning so I missed the first part of the fanfare, but I sure didn’t miss the two dozen lightsaber-bearing eunuchs (I think) that accompanied the Bioware and LucasArts dudes on the stage. They announced that The Old Republic will be the first-ever fully voiced MMORPG. That’s a lot of voice acting, and they say it might even be the most in any single project ever.

Aside from that we got to see the first cinematic trailer, which gives literally no idea what gameplay might be like, yet is totally awesome.

Sure this is old as all get out and Star Wars is better than Star Trek, but if you want your Garmin StreetPilot or Nuvi to sound like Scotty on the toilet you can download and install these Star Trek sounds at your leisure.

Once and for all: Star Wars or Star Trek?

It looks like we have an answer in the endless Star Wars vs Star Trek debate. If the USS Enterprise showed up in Imperial controlled San Francisco, the Death Star could easily blast the starship out of the sky. It’s that simple. Star Wars wins. Or so says the must-see video after the break.
