Review by Scott Osborne, 7/10. "The gorgeous graphics are quite a sight, and the gameplay gives you a fairly enjoyable 'Top Gun meets Star Wars' experience that straddles realism and arcade-style gameplay, while emphasizing the latter. In aiming to meld the two, it doesn't quite get either right, and substance takes a backseat to style." |

Review by Steve Butts, 72%. "You'll play it, you'll enjoy and, ultimately, put it aside for more traditional games that offer a lot more sparkle." |

Review by Michael Lafferty, 75%. "And if the visual elements are so strong as to draw you back again and again, in spite of the shortcomings, then this must be a decent program." |

Review by Branislav Babovic, 70%. "Echelon's main problem is that it appeared too early. It looks as though the programmers just rushed to wrap the game up, eliminating any possibility to get a good background story, and incorporating only the basic Multiplayer options." |

Review by Ryan Matthews, 7/10. "If you're looking for a flight sim that has a pretty face, handles extraordinary and isn't your run of the mill space shooter, Echelon is your game." |

Review by Todd Hargosh, 4/5. "Aside from the difficulty I had with the control, the game is very intense." |

Previewed by Jason Byrne. "To get this game into some kind of reasonable shape, expect them to take until at least Spring of 2001 before anything ships." |

Review by Shawn Sanders, C. "Echelon is a disappointment. I expected your character to play a more integral role in the story. ... I expected better AI from a game that has been in development for this long." |
