10 to 20 Hours

The Bottom Line:

"Ambitious"

In general it's an ambitious addition to the Star Trek series trying to cover the whole experience following the movie wholeheartedly, from the cover based ground battle to the space battle - which appeared only to promote the new "original Enterprise" trademark of hails of laser fires and torpedoes.

The gliding missions are fun surprises and highly enjoyable compared to the rocket powered space flight which tend to be vague in the collision detection.

It would only score a 5.0 had the game did not so faithfully stay within the Star Trek universe's convention, the graphic, and the soundtracks which rightfully deserved a solid 2 point extra. The voice overs are also topnotch with great dialogues and lines as if taken straight from the movie it tries to portray. There is not even a slight hint of the involvement of a Japan company in the game, which would usually brings cheesy dialogues.
