New Bridge Commander screenshots

Activision sent over a few screenshots from its Star Trek starship simulator, Bridge Commander. These new shots don't show much in the way of action, but they give a good look at the detailed character models populating the bridge area. Activision also announced that veteran Star Trek writer DC Fontana will be used as a consultant for Bridge Commander's script. Larry Holland--who also created the popular X-Wing and TIE Fighter Star Wars games--and his team at Totally Games are overseeing development of Bridge Commander. In the game, players take control of a Galaxy-class ship, but they have an opportunity to earn new commands as you prove their skill.
