Plenty of Star Trek favorites make showings. As the nameless, faceless first officer, it's your job to seize command (because "take" is too sissy of a word), thus beginning your trek to investigate the exploding star phenomena, deal with some Cardassians, engage some Romulans, and make nice-nice with polite Klingonese. A routine shuttle trip turns disastrous when a star goes supernova thus devastating an entire system and turning el capitan into a shuttlecraft smore, where he'd be the marshmallow goodness. Mix in some always devious and untrusting Romulans, fight hungry Klingons, a mysterious, xenophobic race, and noble Federation types, cram the whole lot of them into an area of space known as the Maelstrom, and you've got Bridge Commander.Īs the game starts your Captain's life ends. The Cardassian people, now proud owner's of the quadrant's biggest crap hole of a massacred planet, are desperately trying to rebuild their forces. Lawrence Holland and his Totally Games have talent, Star Trek is still cool, and Bridge Commander is a fine, fine piece of space-faring starship simulation whether taken from the standpoint of a fan or gamer.īC's script, and I appropriately call it that because it plays out, line after line, very linearly, begins not too far after the conclusion of the Dominion Wars of Deep Space Nine. It's from this formal and prestigious background (I play with joysticks and make peanuts) that I'm able to justifiably conclude a few things you've all probably already figured out on your own.
#Dcommander review Pc
But more than this, I'm still the IGNPC editing, Dragonrider's playing, PC game knowing Nuts who calls 'em fair. So I know my Trekking stuff, be sure of that.
For intrepid reviewers such as myself, it's a de facto requirement that you put gaming above all other forms of media entertainment, including TV, radio, and cock fighting. But more than I like watching Star Trek, I like playing games.
#Dcommander review movie
Marina Sirtis' birthdate and shoe size still elude me, but the fact that I even know whom Marina Sirtis is should be proof enough for true Trekkies that I've at least seen every episode and movie there is to see. I'm not a complete dork (complete being the operative word).
