10.Despite some issues over the years, Star Trek Online is the game that finally gives players the chance to build their ship, crew, and skills, and then battle it out in an expanding universe against other fans. Even those who haven’t played MMOs in the past will want to check out Star Trek Online for its unique story, which reveals what happened in the “” timeline of the Star Trek universe, after the events of the J.J. Abrams 2009 film altered history.A to a free-to-play model in early 2012 made the game more frustrating for its original fans, and ground combat is still the weakest part of the experience, but great space combat, story missions, graphics, and voice appearances from many Star Trek actors ensure Star Trek Online a solid spot in our Top 10 list. There was a Star Trek game in 1976 that also evolved into a game called, “Cube Wars”.

It was a grid (you chose the size) usually 10×10 which meant Quadrants and then in each Quadrant you’d have another 10×10 area which could have a Starbase or Klingons to battle. Most of the ships functions were done with just the numbered keypad (which was just like in the TV show) and fun to play. Shooting torpedos at various angles or phasers. Where did this game(s) go? They were simple but lots of fun to playand fast action even to today’s standards.

It’s funny you should mention that game. I’m retired and wrote 3D flight simulators privately and DoD aircraft modeling software for the USAF and still actively write code.

Just wanted to tell you some of my involvement with that game. I had absolutely ZERO to do with the original that was on a mainframe back in school. We played on the terminals. Before I left college I down loaded a listing of the game (written in a version of BASIC on our mainframe).

Year later my first PC was a Radio Shack Color Computer II. I re-wrote that game but decided it need some animation and had to assembly to accomplish it. A friend told me it was the funnest game he’d ever played but I never even thought about marketing it. Later my nephew and I used XNA to animate a version of it. We both got our attention diverted before it was “ready for someone else” to play. What I think you’re looking for ins Star Fleet I. Text graphics but similar to the old mainframe version.

The list leaves out Star Trek: Legacy therefore I cannottake it seriously as Legacy is one of the best Star Trek games ever created.Star Trek: Legacy got 8.0 out of 10 when it was reviewed2006 in the Official XBOX magazine (also in a retrospective review done lastyear by the Official XBOX Magazine they called the game “almostgreat)”.Here is why Legacy in my opinion is the best Star Trek game ever:. All 5 Trek Captains reprise their roles by lending their voice talent to the game. The game covers all 5 Trek TV series and all 3 Trek eras. D.C. Fontana wrote the story (this is huge as she is a well respected Trekwriter with credits dating back to TOS. Most games don’t have professionalwriters and stories are often paper thin if not abysmal). It Features all of the well know ships in the Trek universe (Federation,Klingon, Romulan and Borg).Lets the play be able to play as any of the 4 factions in deathmatches(Federation, Klingon, Romulan or Borg).

Also the developer (Mad Doc Software) at the request of fans of the gamereleased the developer tools to allow the mods to game (that means: new shipsor tweaks to the existing ships and new missions). This is huge as this isalmost unheard of for this to be done and gives the game a lot of extra valuebeyond just the stock version on the game that is on the XBOX 360.I am not going to be dishonest about it and will admit Legacy that ad a fewissues but nothing them were game breaking. The issues the game faced (a fewbugs and unimplemented developer stated features) were a result of thepublisher (Bethesda Softworks) forcing the developer (Mad Doc Software) to pushthe game to market before it was polished & completed. This sadly is alltoo common the video game industry and often is due the publisher wanting tomeet a certain target date or deciding not to invest further funding in thedevelopment of the game. What often happens in these instances are for the gamein question to be cancelled or the developer to threaten to cut funding.

In thecase of Star Trek: Legacy the it was the latter and the developer decided totake a game what was essentially in the beta stage of development and releaseit rather than have the entire game canned. I personally am glad they made thedecision to publish that game regardless of it not being the completelyfinished game that the developer had envisioned because the game truly is stilla remarkable game that is fun and holds up well despite a few flaws.
