Review by David Washington, 3.5/5. "If there was ever a game that has potential to become
great, then Echelon is that game. But in its current state, it is not yet ready to go up against
the big boys in the industry."

Review by Ben Piazza, 66%. "There is absolutely no progression of personal growth nor will the
fundamental storyline leave you wanting more. If there was anything that saves it from the trash it
would be its thrilling graphics that go beyond normal second rate flight simulations."

Review by Nate Heasly, 4/5. "Once you get the hang of the controls and get used to the
slightly more realistic flight engine the game is plenty of fun to play."

Review by Twogunsshy, 74%. "Despite the great graphics and decent story line, Bethesda
Software still has a ways to go in finalizing their product. The lack of a dedicated online game
server tends to take away from its multiplayer feature."

Review by Scott, 4/5. "I found Echelon to be an extremely fun game, with its unique aircraft,
excellent visuals, and the mind-blowing rush of low-altitude combat."

Science Fiction Weekly
Review by Eric T. Baker. "Echelon is an easy game to learn, but a hard one to master. ... The
lack of control over your wingmen is very annoying in the later scenarios, and the flying really is
much better with a joystick."

ActionTrip
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."

Tech Extreme
Review by José Ayala. "Echelon is just an average space simulation. Spending a bit more time
to refine the gameplay elements and to hash out better missions would have given it a better
chance."

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."

Review by Michael Lafferty, 75%. "And if the visual elements are so strong as to draw you back

The Junkyard
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."

GameSpot
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."
