Any further opinions on this? I might get it for the 360 on Friday when it comes out.

I used to play that starship tactical combat simulator hex and counter game with my mates many years ago. If it's anything like that sort of concept I might be interested.

Just been playing it, graphics are not what they would lead you to believe, they're far from stunning and the models are nowhere near as good as canon.

Also the control system sucks and i appear to get stuck when attempting to do a roll the ship will only turn so far.

this is the pc version tho not the xbox to which i wish they'd release a demo of it on live so that we could see if the controls were any better

Yes I find myself quite dissapointed :(

Although I do hear that the pc mod community are working frantically to update the models on the pc version.

I was looking forward to a good star trek game too.l

Battlefield 2142.
Star Trek Bridge Commander - Kobayashi Maru 0.9.1 and 1.0 ( in beta )

Uncle Peter 16-01-2007 17:01

Re: what game are you playing
 
Since the poor old 360 has gone to the knackers yard, been playing BF1942.

Set up a dedicated server on the laptop and been playing co-op with the 2 PCs in the house and next door neighbour logged in with theirs over my wlan (the benefits of paper thin walls in modern houses) :D great laugh even if the AI is woeful.

keithwalton 16-01-2007 17:09

Re: what game are you playing
 
The Kobayashi Maru sounds like an interesting mod, but its based in the TNG era, so not a true respresntation of the imposible Kobayashi Maru test from TOS then.

Hom3r 16-01-2007 22:06

We do include the Connie but the mod is based within the TNG,VOY, and DS9Era.

Believe me it is something of which is heavily discussed but we have agreed their would be a huge balancing issue adding TOS era ships.

KM 1.0 will be out in Feb we hope, sporting amazing new bridge sets, with custom sounds, a brand new Voyager model with animated nacelles, and Defiant model, a new Sovereign class model and Galaxy Class, aswell as new tactical options and more stable online gameplay.

World Of Wacraft.... I said i'd never give in and play it, but i'm on one of the 10 day trial things... Seems pretty good after only 5 hours of playing. I don't know if i'd willingly pay to play though. Seems like a huge version of runescape to me so far.

I'm tempted to give that a go someday... (someday i feel like COMPLETELY ending my social life) ;)

Not really complicated at all though, it's really easy... But way too addictive, the reson i'm still awake now... The only way i see me ending this is by NOT buying it for a month. Which in all honesty i think i might just to see if it really does keep this level of fun up :)

I bought it...

Level 11 now, enjoying the fun of quests in Westfall. Accidentally got 2 friends back into it though, and one that's completely new to PC gaming as a whole (Who is now Level 10 in just 2 days...)

It's fun! And cost £14.99 from woolworths (the only place that seems to sell the original without asking the earth...)

Didn't check online as i wanted it there and then, but that goes to show it's pretty good to shop around. Also, GAME tell me they're not stocking the original any more... Which is odd as it's needed in order to use the Expansion they are pushing so hard.

This time though :D

Live For Speed, right now. Can't leave it alone. It's the best genuine racing simulator by far, and it's online/multiplayer too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdfWap_6Fr4

Just finished Fear - extraction point - I think I spent more time trying to get it running on my machine than I did actually playing it...

Next up is Fahrenheit
