This game is cool in that it resembles star trek details pretty well (including some actual actor voice-overs), but it is very aggravating when it comes to completing the missions. It is extremely easy to get lost...if you have little patience, this probably isn't the game for you.

OK Demo

The demo looks ok, but you didn't see much of DS9 in it, and on Elite Force you get to be on a starship. If you want a really cool Star Trek game that actually has a good story to it play Elite Force.

A game that uses the unreal tournament engine indeed!

I never new that this game even existed until I got it with star trek ds9 dominion wars, I got its jewel case so.The fallen is a
puzzling, 3rd person mystery adventure good game.And it uses the glorious unreal tournament engine to pack in all the action to make in this game!!!It really has good graphics.Great gameplay.Good sounds, good music, Excellent graphics, oh and this is the first ut engine game to use projected volumetric shadows, but unlike in jk2(jediknigh2), it doesn't slow down the framerate!!!!But, there are some downs about it! One of the downs is the puzzling ALMOST impossible levels!Although the AI is normal, good.Fair enough!I reccomend a shiny NEW pentium 2 400mhrz with a 16mb 3d accelerator video card, the memory should not me shared and directly for it.I reccomend 128mb ram, that is required for most games these days, but for the really high tech ones, 256mb ram is reccomended.I also reccomend a high end good a3d directxcompatible or eax high end directx compatible sound card!And I reccomend 600mb of harddrive space for complete installation!!!And sci-fi star trek unreal fan is a must get this game!Just buy it!Enjoy it!I reccomend it!Your welcome!!!ps.I also reccomend directx7 of higher!!!!

Well, the game gets an A+ for playability and atmosphere...the graphics are superb and it's a pretty thrilling game.

My only real complaint is the ending, which is kind of anti-climactic...maybe I'm too used to dramatic, epic endgames. It's not enough to not recommend the game -- I recommend it whole-heartedly. I was just hoping for an ending with a little more excitement.

Star Trek Game

This game wasn't quite what I expected it to be. The game is not as user friendly as the Elite Force and other Star Trek games I have played. The graphics are slow and hang up from time to time which makes game play harder. I know for a fact it is not my graphics card. I think the technology is just older. Graphics were nice and there were cool features of the game. Just not quite what I expected.

Highly underrated!

If you enjoyed Activision's Voyager Elite Force, don't miss Deep Space Nine: The Fallen. I had low expectations for this game, but it was a very pleasant surprise. Great graphics, fun action, and the chance to play as three of the show's characters. Too bad some of the actors refused to lend their voices to the game, but I can live without Avery Brooks' god-awful acting anyway...

By far, one of the best Trek games out there

The StarTrek gaming franchise has produced many lackluster games in the past. I remember shelling out for the likes of games StarTrek: Borg when it came out, and being disapointed. However, DS9: The Fallen came out in a time where Trek games where being made that had more redeeming values (like Voyager: Elite Force). And although "The Fallen" wasn't openly advertised as much as many other games, it really is a gem in the long lived line of Trek games.
The Fallen storyline fits right in with the DS9 continuity as an untold chapter of the DS9 saga. Before the Federation took control of the station, the Cardassians were experimenting with a red Orb in a secret area of the station, when an accident happened. Years later, both the Cardassians and an Bajoran cult are after all three red Orbs, which are rumored by legend to be able to open a wormwhole to free the Pagh'Wraiths (those nasty beings that are the enemies of the Prophets).
An interesting point in the game is that you can play as one of three characters, and while you get differnent missions, you basically see the same story from three points of view: that of Captian Sisko, Major Kira, and Worf.
This game really is a solid 3D shooter, and even the Tridorder was worked into the game effectively (so much so that while playing other 3D shooters, I'd be wishing I had my Tricorder to tell my what else is out there). The selection of weapons is pretty good, and the overall gameplay is excelent. Another point I'd like to make is the music. The moody tunes really help add the the eerie atmosphere you're often in on alien worlds or prision camps.
The levels are set in some pretty cool places. As a fan of the show, it feels like they came up with a list of cool places a fan would like to play a game in, and worked them convincingly into the game. Somehow, the dressed up the Defiant as good level (while basing it on the official blueprints of the ship), you'll be running around parts of the station as well, you have to break out of a Dominion prision camp, invade a Cardassion base, and my favorite, find the entrance to a partially sunken Federation starship that's crashed on a planet. All of which are well done levels.
On the downside, Avery Brookes aparently was unwilling or unable to supply the voice for Captain Sisko, so there's another actor doing a less-than-convicing Sisko imitation. There's also no multiplayer options in this game either.
All in all, I think this is an excellent game. Heck, it could be written into a good episode of the show itself.
And at this price, it a great deal.

The ONLY good Star Trek game

Unlike the Star Wars games by LucasArts which are just fantastic and even better than the movies, sadly the translation of the Star Trek franchise into the gaming world has been a total abomination. I have played a number of Star Trek games and they are all bloody awful - except this beauty. In my opinion this is the only exception to an otherwise disastrous sequence of Trek games that don't deserve the Trek title. A shame really. Rick Berman could be sitting on an even bigger gold mine if he would get his arse into gear like Lucas has and start overseeing the creation of some great PC "Trek" games. Especially now that the TV series has gone downhill. Also, I love DS9 and HATE all that Voyager crap. I don't wanna be Janeway, I wanna be QUARK or WORF!

Excellent Star Trek Story

I love this game because you have a story similar to Indiana Jones in a Star Trek mission. Searching for ancients orbs and following a legend. You can play three (independent) characters and save your progress in mission. You solve puzzles and kill "bad boys" and "creatures".
Wonderfull graphics and medium requeriments for your PC.
I gave 4 stars to overall rating because you will need to download two patches (first a big and after a small patch) for a good experience in this game.
