A very well executed and polished rehash of a formula that is in dire need of something new or unique to take the franchise to the next level.
85
A blast to play, even in extended sessions thanks to a good story baseline, plenty of simple pick-up-and-play gameplay elements, and a control scheme that’s as intuitive as it is fluid.

An awesome package of gameplay, sound, and story to improve greatly on an already attractive package. Bravo LucasArts, bravo indeed.

Essentially Rogue Squadron but with mid-tier missions, set pieces and story. Rather forgettable.

The excellent reward system almost makes up for strange feeling of deja vu, and the two-player mini-games are better polished than last year, but you won't find anything terribly new in Jedi Starfighter.

The added force powers are handy, but they don’t dramatically change the way the game is played.
80
Two player cooperative play is a big bonus, and hopefully will set a trend in future space-fighter games.

The Jedi powers, unfortunately, are pretty lame; they provide quite an underwhelming function, and do little to vary gameplay. [May 2002, p.27]

While plenty good can be said about Star Wars: Jedi Starfighter, the often-bland visuals, sketchy frame rate, and somewhat frustrating targeting control ultimately hold Jedi Starfighter back from being a great game.
