Review by Peter J. Skerritt, 85%. "Starfighter doesn't last long ... but it's one heck of a ride while it lasts - it sure got my heart racing after certain missions."
Dark Station
Review by Chris, 8/10. "Despite some paper thin characters, and no radar ... you should buy this game if you like Star Wars or you're into flying games."
Game Revolution
Review by G-Wok, B+. "Starfighter is a classic example of space combat fun. Just about every aspect is done right and some challenges are thrown into the mix as well."
Game Tour
Review by Chris Shade. "While, this may not be a game to totally redefine how we look and play video games, it is a solid Star Wars shooter and should respected as such."
GameCritics.com
Review by Mike Doolittle and Dale Weir, 65%. "It is faster, flashier, and generally better than Rogue Squadron and Battle for Naboo, but there is little else to distinguish it from those games."
GameSpot
Review by Jeff Gerstmann, 78%. "Space sims come down to two variables: mission design and control. While Starfighter could have used a little more polish in both departments, the game presents a compelling story, excellent presentation, and gameplay that will surely satisfy fans of LucasArts' N64 shooters."
Gamezilla
Review by Rob Madison, 82%. "It is one of the best games ever created based on the Star Wars universe but I just wonder if another month or two in development would not have done enough to push the game to elite status."
GameZone
Review by Da bomb mom, 10/10. "I started this review by saying that all Star Wars fan would love this game but as I finish my review I realize that that statement was far too limiting."
Gaming Age
Review by Robert Outlaw, B-. "There's plenty of intense fun to be had in that time, but when it's done, the bonus missions aren't enough of a carrot to get me to play through all of the missions over again and again, trying to get those medals."
IGN
Review by David Zdyrko, 9/10. "Starfighter is right up there with the best of the best on the console and is one hell of a good reason to own Sony's sleekly designed computer entertainment system."
PlanetPS2
Review by Jamie Carlock, 79%. "This game has the rare combination of excellent control coupled with a short learning curve, supremely polished graphics and high framerate, not to mention the sheer playability of the game."
PSX Extreme
Review by SolidSnake, 91%. "Even though I beat Starfighter in one day, I am prompted to go back and finish the game again, and again and again."
PSX Nation
Review by Brian Shroom Gray, 9/10. "It's got a complete package that includes a convincing storyline, likeable characters, solid action, some of the best control ever and voice acting as icing on the cake."
The Cincinnati Enquirer
Review by Marc Saltzman, 4/5. "PlayStation 2 owners with a yen for air/space combat should snag this title because the game's spectacular graphics and fluid control are outdone by its solid story and gripping gameplay."
