Star Trek Legacy screenshots and Trekkie apologies

October 30, 2006

Comment: There hasn’t been a good Star Trek game in ages. There will never be one. Unless it’s an MMO.
Max F.: Hope springs eternal. The graphics and attention to detail, the story (award-winning writer), and the hard work they’re putting into the development of this game all make us hope it’ll be good. And there is an MMO.

Comment: I heard all the captains are voice acting in it. The game will span the Original Series, Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, and Enterprise.
Max F.: We don’t mention the disappointing Enterprise series. *old-school Trekkie giggles* Picard forever!

Comment: Star Trek: Legacy is just a rip-off of Wing Commander.
Max F.: Hmph. There wouldn’t have been a Wing Commander franchise if it weren’t for us Trekkies. Hmph. And the last Wing Commander game was, when, way back in 1996, right? Just kidding (I’m so gonna be flamed; please don’t flame me).

We’ll see who’s right (or if I have to eat my Trekkie heart out) when this Mad Doc Software and Bethesda Softworks game comes out November 21. So let’s move on to the remaining screenshots courtesy of WorthPlaying. If you’re curious, the images alternate Xbox 360, PC, Xbox 360, PC, etc., starting from the images above. Just thought you’d like to see them side-by-side.

Too bad they didn’t show the debris and sparks from damages, and it’s not clear if this is multiplayer or single campaign.
