Buy a 360 signed by Bill Gates!

And a lightsaber signed by Lucas!

The ESA - the American equivalent of our own beloved ELSPA - has launched a bundle of auctions to raise money for underprivileged children.

The highlight is undoubtedly a lightsaber that's been actually signed by the actual George Lucas, which was going for the very reasonable price of $2950 at the time of writing.

Other goodies on offer include an Xbox 360 signed by Bill Gates, a pair of tickets to E3 2006 and the Nintendo party and a six foot tall Master Chief statue. Plus some other Star Wars things that we're not telling you about in case you bid on them. Oh all right, you can find a full list of all the auctions over on eBay.

It is our birthday on Wednesday.
