Yearly, Berg's View of Games mitts out a satiric "Little Macs," which are then awarded for dubious accomplishment around play. A award is known as for recalcitant American Civil War general George McClellan,

BROG was inducted into a Academy of Adventure Gaming Arts & Design's Hall of Fame in 1997.

Cloudchaser Microsoft
Review by John Benn, 65%. "Obi-Wan is an average game in just about every way."

GamePro
Review by Pong Sifu. "If you enjoyed Jedi Power Battles, you might dig Obi-Wan since it does immerse you in the Episode I milieu despite its many shortcomings."

Xbox Exclusive
Review by Pete Calderwood, 84%. "If you can get over the poor visuals, Obi Wan could be your new all-time favorite Star Wars game, due to its fantastic gameplay."

Planet Xbox
Review by Tom Chick, 63%. "Obi-Wan might have been a good game on the last generation of consoles, but it's too confused, rough hewn, and repetitive to stand up against Xbox games like Halo or even Azurik."

IGN
Review by Aaron Boulding, 59%. "We're pretty sure wielding a lightsaber should be more fun than this."

GameZone
Review by Michael Lafferty, 88%. "While this program might not be as intense as Halo, it will be a definite delight for Star Wars fans, and should even satisfy those who are RPG fans."

Game Revolution
Review by G-Wok, C+. "Bashing bad guys with Force powers and swinging that saber is plenty cool. But the evil control, level design and graphics from the Dark Side can turn a good jedi like Obi Wan bad."

The Laser
Review by Michael Palisano. "Obi-Wan is a close-call but misses the mark, with too many flaws that detract from the overall experience so it missed the opportunity it had to be a great game."

GameSpy
[63/100] Review by Tom Chick. "What should have been a sure-fire hit...turns out to be a major disappointment."

Review by Fluffy Cow, 85%. "The playability is great, with a great multiplayer battle arena, where you can whoop some Jedi ass-kickin on your friends."
