Absolute Playstation International Review by Steve, 76%. "This game isn't terrible, just not great. ... By level six I was struggling to keep my eyes open and playing it to the end was a real chore." http://www.absolute-playstation.com/api_review/rstarwarspm.htm

Epinions: Star Wars EP1 - The Phantom Menace Playstation consumer reviews. http://www.epinions.com/game-Titles-Consoles-SonyPlaystation-All-Star_Wars_EP1_-_The_Phantom_Menace

Game Revolution PC review by Johnny Liu, B-. "The Phantom Menace successfully captures the movie, both good and bad." http://www.gamerevolution.com/oldsite/games/pc/action/star_wars_phantom_menace.htm

Games First PC review by Greg Matthews, 3/5. "It's a shame that a title offering players so much possibility as a sort of hybrid gaming experience ends up being such an average product." http://www.gamesfirst.com/reviews/greg/SWEp1/episode1.htm

Just Adventure PC review by Randy Sluganski, C. "I wish I could report that Phantom Menace is a good but failed try at an adventure game, but it is a sheep in wolf's clothing." http://www.justadventure.com/reviews/Phantom_Menace/Phantom_Menace_Review.shtm

Pixel Fiction Playstation review by Earl Green, 2/4. "Oh, what a frustrating game ... The game is played out from a strange kind of Steadicam-hovering-somewhere-overhead perspective, and the movement can become quite distracting, almost dizzying at times." http://www.thelogbook.com/pf/ep1.htm

Echo Station Review by James Zamkotowicz. "Out of any movie to-game-transfer, this may be the best I've seen." (September 18, 1999) http://www.echostation.com/gaming/phantompc.htm

Glide Underground PC review by Michael Ahlf, 4/5. "While it isn't the greatest game in terms of replayability and accessibility, I'd certainly suggest the game for anybody who likes games that don't require extremely tedious hours to beat." (July 21, 1999) http://www.glideunderground.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=HTMLReviews&file=index&req=showcontent&id=149

Active Network PC review by Byron Hinson, 76%. "The Phantom Menace was clearly rushed onto shelves for to coincide with the release of the movie. It is very unfortunate as I feel that a few extra months of coding could have turned an average game into a pretty good one." (July 2, 1999) http://www.activewin.com/reviews/software/games/p/phantom_menace.shtml

The Electric Playground PC review by Victor Lucas, 7/10. "As a game, The Phantom Menace takes its cue straight from the movie; it's fun but it's far from perfect." (June 7, 1999) http://www.elecplay.com/reviews_article.php?article=1133

Science Fiction Weekly PC review by Victor Lucas, B-. "Plagued with bugs and enough quirks to give stone-faced Qui-Gon Jinn a nervous tic, The Phantom Menace CD-ROM is still fast-paced and smart enough to keep players glued to their computer chairs." (June 7, 1999) http://www.scifi.com/sfw/issue112/games.html

CNN Review by Andrew S. Bub. "There's little adventure and little action to be found." (June 3, 1999) http://www.cnn.com/TECH/computing/9906/03/phantom.idg/
