Review : While the choice of ships is excellent and the weapons fire fairly realistic this game just ended up being very unimaginative. All of the missions are more or less the same and once you've played one, you've played them all in terms of what you can actually do. Where the game really loses it's credibility is the V'ger connection. We know from Star Trek: First Conact that the Borg were in the Delta Quadrant way before the V'Ger incident. This game is good for what it is, but nowhere near as good as what it could have been if anyone had bothered to use a little more imagination and actually paid attention to the story.

Review : The story of the game is good, if somewhat familiar. The controls are good, if repetative. Where the game falls are it's graphics, cannon, and selection. The ship graphics are tolerable, but the character models are mediocre at best. The ship lacks cannon in that the weapons don't really match up with what we know. For instance, in the game the Galaxy class can only fire 4 forward torpedoes at a time, when we know she can fire 10, and has no aft phasers, which we know she does. The Sovereign has ablative armor and regenerative shields but these facts are ignored in the game. The Starbase has no shields which makes no sense at all. And the list goes on. Finally the ship selection is very narrow, there are only 5 Federation ships you see and only 2 Klingon. If more had been added to the game it would have increased the value greatly.
