Star Trek

This is a perfect example that most of the games that come out when a huge movie is to hit cinemas can't be really good, because they either come AFTER the movie premieres, in this case they use to be better cause the STORY from the movie can be used, this is the other example, this game came out BEFORE the movie hit cinemas, it has different story, it's cliché driven, has, shame to say, GRAPHICS on the level of 2008, mediocre sound effects, no special awards or bonuses can be collected, no bonus material, musical score is pretty good though and intense when needed and as for the overall keyboard/mouse handling thats yet again just OK, BUT it has a spirit to it, and fans of Star Trek will enjoy this few hours short adventure ;)

There were tons of games in the past that came out when a huge movie was going to be released, most of them were BAD or MEDIOCRE at best, few were GOOD or REALLY GOOD, this is the MEDIOCRE case, you've got all your favorite characters lookalikes with the original cast voice-over, mostly they at least tried to deliver their lines properly, and as I'm a huge fan of Star Trek reboot, i would give this 7/10 just for the sake of it. This game's simply one time adventure, has by all means no repeating quality, while it's story takes place between Star Trek (2009) and Star Trek Into Darkness (2013), and from the look of it, Cpt. Kirk and Cmd. Spock weren't "too busy".

P.S. Just to make myself clear, i gave this 7/10 because i really do like both movies, if i should be really honest after playing all kinds of Video Games past 15 years, this wouldn't pass over 5/10. Also i would like to say GRAPHICS and SFX is NOT on the level of 2008, honestly, i could program and script a better video game in 2004, but hey, all of you Star Trek fans all over the world, do you really care what i think? I don't think so, Everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion, judge by yourselves and go buy it.

This is a great action adventure game that puts you in the hand of Kirk or Spock with a device called Helios stolen by the Gorn an alien race Kirk and Spock have to save the day there is great voice acting for all the players from the movie you have Simon Pegg's Funny Scotty To Karl Urban's Nervous Bones trying to treat as many people as he can there is a girl thrown in as well her name is Ta Mar this game is good not matter what people say about is the glitches the lags the horrible graphics just have some sense it is a bit of mindless fun much more fun there your call of duty franchise it goes into were the movies do not you get to sit in the chair and look around and kill Gorn and save the day 10 out of 10

Star Trek: The Video Game, unfortunately, did not meet my expectations, especially as a fan of the Star Trek universe. One of the main reasons for this is the significant changes to the storyline, which make the game almost unrecognizable compared to the original source. As a fan, it was difficult for me to accept the game as a legitimate part of the Star Trek universe since its plot seemed entirely different and lacked the depth that is typical of the films and series.

Although the developers likely intended to create a unique plot twist, the game failed to capture the atmosphere and spirit of space exploration that makes Star Trek so special. For the most part, the player is faced with combat scenes and action, which, of course, might appeal to fans of dynamic gameplay, but it doesn't match the essence that Star Trek enthusiasts are accustomed to. Star Trek has always been about more than just fighting: it's about moral choices, interstellar exploration, and philosophical questions, none of which the game fully managed to convey.

Besides the storyline issues, there are other aspects of the game that left me disappointed. The graphics, while not the worst, still leave much to be desired. In certain places, textures appear outdated, and the character animations sometimes look unnatural. Compared to other modern games that create incredibly detailed and visually stunning worlds, Star Trek: The Video Game feels somewhat obsolete. This is unfortunate because the Star Trek universe, with its diverse planets, spaceships, and civilizations, could have served as the perfect foundation for creating a truly impressive game world.

As for the gameplay, things are also mixed. At first glance, the idea of combining shooter elements with teamwork between characters seems intriguing. However, the execution turned out to be clumsy. The AI of the companions in the game isn't always logical, and they often fail to perform necessary actions or simply get in the way during missions. This added frustration and reduced the overall enjoyment of the game.

Moreover, while combat is the central part of the gameplay, it becomes monotonous over time. There are plenty of enemies, but the fights with them follow a repetitive pattern and don't require much strategy or tactics. Because of this, the game quickly becomes boring as there is no sense of progression or variety in the levels.

Additionally, the game suffers from several technical issues. Throughout different stages, I encountered bugs where textures disappeared, characters got stuck in walls, or were unable to perform certain actions. This created additional inconveniences and further spoiled the overall experience.

In conclusion, Star Trek: The Video Game turned out to be different from what I had hoped for. As a fan of the universe, I expected deeper immersion in the events, more focus on the storyline, and moral dilemmas, but instead, I got a game that focused more on action and combat. If you are not a fan of Star Trek and are simply looking for a basic game with shooter elements, you might enjoy it. However, if you are searching for a game that captures the atmosphere of the Star Trek universe and lets you feel like part of the crew on a starship, this game may not meet your expectations.
