The whole " I don't remember owning a droid " is part of Obi's big plan of not telling Luke about dark past of his family . I'm sure he remembered Artoo and C-3PO . Maybe he even knew that Artoo's memory wasn't erased , it could have been a tip for Artoo , not to say anything about what happened many years ago .
If he would say "Oh I remember this droid , we fought together in the Clone Wars and so did your father " and Luke would say " My Father ?! Artoo what do you know about my father , please tell me everything " and there would be some bipping and then C-3PO would start translating " He was a great Jedi but now he is .....Darth Vader " and Obi Wan would just slap himself in the face because Luke would be affraid to go anywhere and the whole OT would end after 20 minutes .

i was about to say the very same thing 😄
kinda like stopping luke from questioning artoo about the past....but why couldnt they have just erased artoos memory?
maybe obi is following the lines of the jedi code, about not having attachments? just 'forgets' certains things?
Artoo isn't the only blue astromech in the galaxy. Notice that Luke doesn't say Artoo's number/name to Obi-Wan. He only goes into "serious mode" after he views Leia's message.... When Obi-Wan first tells that to Luke, he is still in exile, and doesn't want to reminisce about the past. Once he sees the message, he knows that it is time for Luke to fufill his destiny.

This is probably off topic but why is there anger between the lars family against Obi-Wan?? Besides having left a child to them for no reason?
I don't think they are really angry at Ben, only afraid. They have had Luke for about 20 yeas then and have come to love him as their son. And knowing that Ben had been on crazy adventures with Anakin maybe made them afraid that he would take luke away from them and perhaps get him killed etc. So they were basically just protecting parents.

Hey, sorry if this has already been posted but im new so i havent exaclty looked at all of them. in anh, ben claims he doesnt remeber ever owning a droid, in reference to artoo. Considering hes been on adventures with artoo before, how did this happen
All I'm saying is: "A young Jedi named Darth Vader, who was a pupil of mine until he turned to evil, helped the Empire hunt down and destroy the Jedi knights. He betrayed and murdered your father. "
He certainly never owned R2D2. So the above quote would be correct, from a certain point of view. That is to say, Obi-wan is a big liar.
