A brilliant game, with some canon issues

User Rating: 6.8 | Star Trek: Legacy X360
Star Trek Legacy is a breath of fresh air in the Trek gaming scene. This games pulls together 5 series into one action, packed combat game. Its very aggravating how the game was pushed back so many times, but it is still worth it.

I personally loved the way the game explained some things about the Borg that haven't been explained in any of the series. The combat was especially riveting, and the ship models are excellent.

The only issues I have are the lack of TNG era Romulan ships, The lack of authentic weapons sounds for some ships (Defiant Pulse Phasers, K'vort disruptors, etc), slow turning radius for the ships even at 1/4 impulse, The Borg lack of shields (seriously when has this happened in the shows?) the intrepid's nacelles don't even rotate into place when you go into warp, and the lack of options in skirmish.

It seems all they did was rip off the armada 2 interface instead of coming up with something unique. That interface is ok for pc, but completely sub-par for Xbox 360. You can't limit ships to particular classes, you can't choose opposing ships to recreate battles, and you can't even preview the maps! I was also surprised by a lack of clan or fleet option for player to build teams and battle all over the trek universe.

Above all this game require more effort.

Bethesda should get off their asses and get trekkies and trekkers to help make Trek games.
