It's that time of year again!

May the 4th be with you! Star Wars Games are on sale across many of the PC gaming retailers out there. Look for your favorite Star Wars games on either Steam, Amazon, the Humble Store, GOG.com, or any number of storefronts. (Fanatical has numerous Star Wars deals, as well, but many of those deals are not valid in the United States, so for our international readers, find those on Fanatical.)

But if you aren't into Star Wars? What if The Last Jedi has turned you off to Star Wars forever? Or what if listening to people incessantly complaining about The Last Jedi has turned you off to Star Wars forever? If that's the case, Steam has four free weekends going on right now, with Call of Duty: WWII's multiplayer, For Honor, Offworld Trading Company, and XCOM 2 all playable for free through Sunday.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
