Finally Boldly Going...

When first Starfleet Command came to store shelves, I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. Then I did, only to find the game was a piece...The case was similar with the slightly improved Starfleet Command II. Starfleet Command III, however, showed me that not all the SFC games have to [be so bad]. First, the graphics are far better than the visuals in the previous two. The textures are extremely detailed and the ships look absolutely fantastic. Also, even though the graphics look great, the minimum requirements are surprisingly low (unless of course you have a CPU that is below a Pentium III and a graphics card that [is bad]. Plus, while SFC purists may not like it (which I can't understand), the interface in this game is simplified to the point where you can actually access everything easily. The interfaces of the previous two games were way too convoluted and seemed to only serve to slow down the pace of the combat; you pretty much had to go through about 50 submenus to simply reinforce a shield! Its surprising how much more enjoyable an SFC game is when you simply take out the 1 million or so menus and submenus from the interface. There is also a very eclectic collection of ships to choose from; each ship varies in speed, maneuverability, and weaponry and can by customized. While the game is very enjoyable overall, it seems to be missing the strategic challenge present in the previous two titles and the combat can actually become tedious at times. Also, while the previous games enabled players to choose from six or more races to play as, SFC III's number of races is restricted to four (the Federation, the Klingon Empire, the Romulan Star Empire, and the Borg). Overall, if you like Star Trek and have the urge to pilot one of your favorite ships from the Star Trek: TNG universe, this game is for you.

THIS IS THE BEST GAME I HAVE SEEN IN TEN YEARS!

Get this game, (...)GET THIS GAME!!!!!! Sure it is (about the same price) in most locations, BUT IT IS WORTH THE MONEY! Imagine all you star trek fans, being species 8472, fighting the borg on the internet, fed on your side! IT IS CRAZY FUN! And, now they have Intrepid type vessels, Tactical cubes, FUSION CUBES (which, by the way, is probably the most powerful vessels in the game), get this, you are able to fuse 8 cubes or tactical cubes into one ship! My goodness, it is CRAZY! Okay, maybe I shouldn't tell you ALL the details, but get the game, (...)GET THE GAME!

Great Game.

As in most of my reviews, I use the word "solid." While this game doesn't match up to Aliens Vs Predator 2, I enjoyed it much more than the original Elite Force. For me, the graphics were much improved. I found this game a bit more challenging than the first. It was hard enough at times, to get me frustrated. Yet not too hard to throw in the towel. You'll battle aliens on different ships in the galaxy. Sound and effects rate a 3, controls a 4, and the graphics 4+ but not a 5. AvP 2 is still my favorite shooter, but this is a pleasing experience for both Trek fans and gamers alike.

Dont waste your money!

This game is not the best. i'm glad it's out. I just ordered one. It has lots of different classes of ships, and lots of warping your ships around. Also there is a really cool Borg campaign. Besides that everything suxs.

Way to many bugs. . .

I was exited about the game, but could not get it to run long enough to enjoy it.

Activision was unwilling to assist in troubleshooting, but Best Buy was nice enough to take the bug ridden game back.

To bad because it started out good till it kept crashing.

Too Many Bugs!

This game is full of bugs, even after the latest patch. Gameplay is simply ruined by all of progamming flaws, such as lock-ups. Even some game objectives are dead ends. Some missions on this game are unconquerable thanks to the poor programming. [its not worth the price that i paid and is not worth considerably less]

how the mighty have fallen...short.

the first Elite Force was ground breaking and a good FPS for its time (2000 a.d.) but this game just stinks. it fell short of every expactation i had. first off the game is too short. only 10-11 missions, i finished in 2 days. second, this game IS NOT Star Trek, its just another monster fighting FPS...soooooo dissapointing. i wanna fight Borg, Romulans, cardassians and other Alpha quadrent foes...not monsters...if i wanted monsters id pick up Doom. the one thing that was okay in the game were the weapon choices and the fact it takes place in the alpha quadrent on the Enterprise. dont waste your money like i did, im 50$ out.

Dr. Mc Coy, He's very sick!

I am reviewing Judgement Rites(though all of the ST game reviews are clumped together)
Of all of the Star Trek(and other kinds) of games I have played nothing compares to STJR(Star Trek Judgement Rites) It has excellent dialogue(by ALL of the star trek crew of the 60's series.) It has flight-sim space battles using resources and battle stratedgies and it has on world adventures where you, as Captain James Kirk, act and re-act as do your NPC's in the game. Dialogue choices are endless. Most missions have quirky funny moments with Dr. McCoy and Spock(and Kirk sometimes when iritated with the two of them). This is a game where you put your intelligence and not just your clicking dexterity(phasers on stun-uh I mean Kill!) to the test. No game made to day compares. So what if the graphics are cartoonish, they ain't bad for 1993 when it was released. You get to pilot the Enterprise, visit different planets, and poke fun at Spock, what more could you want?
Unfortunately it isn't for sale anymore(what DOS game is?) If you want to run it, try VDM sound or DOS box 6.0.
