Star Trek: Away Team
I just got this game at Bookmans last night. I have played it and the gameplay is pretty hard. The plot is also weird. Data wants you to incapacitate the Romulan with a Neural Disruptor instead of using a phaser. What is up with that? I am just rating this game 5 stars because I have not played it that much and that I have hopes that the game will be better
Rating: 5 / 5
Wow! This really tops my list of “Star Trek” games. I’ve already spent hours on it and love it. It’s rather difficult, even on the easy setting. Your enemies shoot back at you, and it take some real effort to knock them down. Although in real life it’s better to stun your enemies rather than kill them, it’s better to kill in this game. Stun just makes them come back more mad than before.
I recommend this game for any “Star Trek” fan, or just anyone that wants to have a good time shooting up everything. Get this one today.

What a shame. Great idea, great concept, but so poorly delivered. This is not a patch on Commandos 2 and it lacks everything that made Commandos 2 so good. The characters are dull and the games leads you rather then allowing you to direct the flow of the game.
Commandos 2 took me best part of a month and I enjoyed every minute of it, as a Trek fan I looked forward to this one but I finished it easily in two days and was sadly bored for most of it. Avoid.

It’s an exciting, strategic game with a large number of ways to complete the missions. Kill the Romulan with a phaser blast? (Not easy, they shoot back!) Waste a grenade on him? Try to sneak around him? Can I sneak a Vulcan behind him for a neck pinch?
So why only 4 stars? Because after you play the 17 (18?) missions, it’s game over. The missions aren’t really playable “over and over again”, and without a mission creator for the Internet community, this game will probably be deleted from your hard drive after its initial play. Contrast that to some excellent, replayable games, “UT, Quake 3, RollerCoaster Tycoon…..”
Again, a very good game, and worth the time, but it’s gonna be a short time.

It seems that the Elite Force has broken the ST curse. This is a very good game. It is commandos in the ST universe. You are in command of the crew of the USS Incursion, a defiant variant prototype. You have 22 men each with different abilities. In most cases you select four of them for the missions.
The gameplay is very similar to commandos.The maps are well designed. In addition to large outdoor maps you can get in the buildings. The places where you play are really very well done. For example the inside of the Borg Cube, or the Qu’nos or the Romulus. You fight klingons, romulans, rogues starfleet personne and the Borg.
The story is very well designed. You can feel yourself really like a member of starfleet.
After all this is a very good game. Not a cheap commandos imitation. If you like this kind of game you wont be disappointed.
