- Apollo Guide - Review by Ron Neufeld, 98%. "There are lots of other nice touches: fully rendered cockpits, ships now have functioning turrets ... multi-player supports Internet, direct modem, LAN, or direct connection, and you get to pilot a large number of ships."

- Game Revolution - Review by Johnny B., A-. "The force is indeed strong with this one. And the force will be strong with you as well if you actually succeed in completing the sadistically challenging second Death Star run."

- GamePen - Review by Tom Chick. "In other space combat games, you dont feel like you're living inside a game as you do in X-Wing Alliance. This isn't so much a game as it is an experience."

- Games Domain - Review by chard Greenhill. "The game makes no revolutionary attempt to take space action to the next level, and it may arguably be technically inferior to recent competition ... but it's still highly addictive and no one can argue that the Star Wars universe is losing any of its appeal."

- Gamezilla - Review by Shaffer Buttars, 96%. "Corrected everything from the nightmare that was X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter, then kept everything good from the previous three games and made a wonderful, multi-faceted game. I highly recommend it."

- Glide Underground - Review by Michael Ahlf, 4/5. "It has the Star Wars feel all over it, and can hold its own with any simulation around."

- Happy Puppy - Review by Dante, 9/10. "With all this innovation, addition, and genius game design, it isn't hard for me to add this game in the top three best games I've ever played category."

- IGN - Review by Tal Blevins, 82%. "A really good game which could use some minor tweaking to become a truly great experience. The story is well crafted, the sound work is nearly perfect, and the graphics are well done and only lacking in a few minor areas."

- Intelligamer - Review by Chris Stephen, 4/5. "Like a good novel you will find yourself drawn ever deeper in the Alliance's struggle with the oppressive Empire and for die-hard fans and those who love the Star Wars story I would think this a must have game."

- Science Fiction Weekly - Review by Victor Lucas, A. "The presentation of X-Wing Alliance is also top-notch. ... Sprinkled overtop of this confection is an array of laser blasts, explosions and TIE Fighter swoosh sounds that have echoed in the collective consciousness of fans since 1977."

- The Electric Playground - Review by Victor Lucas, 9/10. "Carefully constructed with a craftsman's attention to story as well as air combat strategy, Alliance will more than satisfy the escapist cravings that Star Wars fans all over the world are feeling right now."

- Voodoo Extreme - Review by Chris Nell, 92%. "Nothing's perfect, and greatness is subjective, but if it's Star Wars space combat at its finest that you want, then you can't go wrong with X-Wing Alliance."
www.voodooextreme.com/games/reviews/alliance
- X-Sages - Review by Forsaken Sedai, 4.5/5. "Enjoy the new cinematics and ship models, but it's not the end-all and be-all of space combat. Still, despite its shortcomings, a very pleasurable gaming experience."
