It turns out that Star Wars is a popular franchise on which to base a video game. This might be something to do with the fact that you can stick the name Star Wars on pretty much any old rubbish and it will still sell like hotcakes. Hello Kinect Star Wars, I’m looking at you.

But among the dire shovelware that stinks up the Star Wars game library there are a handful that constitute some of the most pioneering games of their age. And so, for your entertainment, here is every Star Wars game ever*, starting with the dog’s dinners and ending with the dog’s bollocks.

In an earning's call yesterday, EA offered more information about a new Star Wars Battlefront for the holiday season later this year. As the series moves on, this leaves some fans of the current game unsure of what the future might be.

Star Wars: Battlefront just released its Rogue One: Scarif DLC. It adds new heroes, n additional game mode, and also managed to turn Lando into the toughest hero in the galaxy. Step aside, Jedi and Sith. Billy Dee Williams is here to save the day.

If you thought Star Wars Battlefront was insubstantial, you're not alone. The folks running EA agree, and they say they plan to add more content when the next one comes along.

There's a chance that you might have most of these games already. God knows they've been on sale plenty of times over the last few years. But if you haven't, or there's just one or two games that you wouldn't mind picking up for bugger all, then you've got just over 24 hours left to take advantage of a decent opportunity.

Today on Highlight Reel we have a dabbing Palpatine, bad rocket aim, Rainbow 6 breeching failures and tasers!

Today on Highlight Reel we have stuck pilots, sneaky deathclaws, kill streaks and karma!

When Kogan launched a gaming laptop earlier in the year, first impressions... weren't great. The $1000 price tag isn't too bad when you compare it to the rest of the market, but the specifications didn't exactly set hearts alight.

We'll have a full review later in the week, but for now I want to provide you all with the meat and potatoes of any gaming laptop: the benchmarks.

Today on Highlight Reel we have rocket faces, Fallout 4 whack-a-mole, good snipes, deathclaws and much more!

Today on Highlight Reel we have Just Cause 3 landings, fireworks, Jedi streaks, spartan rain and much more!

Today on Highlight Reel we have Force-sensitive Strormtroopers, horrible leg movements, lucky knives, blind kills and much more!

Microsoft's $2299 Surface Book, which launched in Australia at the same time as its flagship Sydney store, is a thin and light tablet with a keyboard dock that contains extra battery power. Uniquely, though, the Surface Book's lower half also contains a Nvidia GeForce graphics card, fueling some small hope that it might be adequate for a bit of weekend gaming.

After some mucking around with different Nvidia drivers and a bunch of testing over the weekend, I can say that adequate is the word -- the Surface Book certainly isn't a gaming powerhouse, but with a bit of software hacking, it's not terrible, and enough to enjoy a modern video game or two.

Australian eSports, gendered toys, Star Wars: Battlefront, the best movie gadgets, tipping wait staff and artisanal salami made from celebrities. Yes, really.

Video: Two enemies lock eyes on the battlefield. One, a Rebel soldier. The other, an Imperial Stormtrooper. This can only end in one way.

When it comes to Star Wars: Battlefront, there's no doubt that the game looks sensational, sounds like a Star Wars game and runs as smooth as butter. The gameplay isn't bad either, although there's a solid complaint about the amount of content.

But if you're playing on PC, there's a bigger problem. The community there simply isn't big enough for a AAA shooter. In fact, it's about as big as some free-to-play games on Steam.

Video: Blink and you'll miss one of the best Easter eggs in Star Wars: Battlefront.

If you haven't picked up one of this season's major releases yet, or just want something at a decent price to stick in the PS4/Xbox One stocking for Christmas, Target are doing their hardest to convince you that they really still like selling games.
