In 2009, GamesRadar included it among the games "with untapped franchise potential", commenting: "Midway’s 2004 shooter combined traditional weaponry with its protagonist’s psychic abilities (such as telekinesis), and received generally favorable reviews from critics and players. It was even reviewed better than the similarly-minded Force Unleashed, yet we still haven’t seen a sequel."[5] In 2010, UGO ranked as the #21 on the list of the games that need sequels.[6] That same year, the game was included as one of the titles in the book 1001 Video Games You Must Play Before You Die.[7]
