Star Trek: Starfleet Command 3 for Windows

Pros: Movie style graphics, a huge diversity of ships, Brill sound effects
Cons: Lots of bugs, needs a speedy computer to run.

This is one iof the best games i have ever played!! However it was released too early with a lot of annoying bugs. (like alot of other startrek games) If you patch it to Version 1.03 you'll get a Great gaming experience. (The GOLD edition is Version 1.02...

Pros: Finally, something worthy of the Star Trek name!
Cons: could use some 'finishing touches'

First off, I've got to say that this is one awesome game, and if you're a Trek fan you don't want to miss it. If you're not a Trek fan, you'll probably like it anyway.





So lets start with a breakdown of the...

Pros: excellent graphics
Cons: a bit difficult

First, a warning: there is already a patch for the game to fix several problems known with the game at the time it shipped...

But, hey, it's an Interplay game; I've come to expect high quality from them -- but high quality that occasionally...

Pros: Kept just about everything from Star Fleet Battles
Cons: Kept just about everything from Star Fleet Battles

STAR TREK STARFLEET COMMAND (SFC) is the descendant of the original analog desktop tactical game STAR FLEET BATTLES (SFB). SFB is the descendant of many tactical board wargames involving ships like WOODEN SHIPS AND IRON MEN, BATTLEWAGON and JUTLAND. I...

Pros: Star Trek combat at it finest!
Cons: Crashes and other code flaws...per Interplay standards.

These are the voyages of the USS BeatDown. Her captain, the indomitable Alkaiser. The mere mention of his name makes entire empires shudder, for he is the apotheosis of cool, the destroyer of worlds. Together, their mission is to boldly go and beat down...

Pros: Nice concept, great music, some cool graphics, George Takei.
Cons: Buggy, buggy, weird story lines, and, oh yeah, buggy.

Let me start off that this game was an ambitious undertaking by the people at Interplay. But good intentions can't overshadow the results. I wanted to like this game, nay LOVE this game. Everything seemed so great at first. Great gameplay, graphics,...

Pros: exciting, action packed, interesting
Cons: the time it takes to learn it all

Yes this game is very complex, however the more you learn, the better you get! Anyone in to star trek or in to the strategy type game will find many hours of enjoyment with Starfleet Command. I downloaded the demo version about a week ago, and my husband...

Pros: Good graphics, multiple races top choose from
Cons: Terrible layout of controls, snail-like recharge rate for weapons

Starfleet Command is one of the best Star Trek game that I had played. The graphics are good, but I belive that the layout of the controls are bad.

The good:
1. The tutorials are great for the beginners, though they can be long to...

Pros: Outstanding game play! Great Graphics! True to the original SFB! Multi-player!
Cons: Manual and game have some discrepencies. Patch needs to be installed. Multi-player game better than campaign game.

Finally – after many years of wishing and waiting - they have turned Starfleet Battles into a computer game. And a FUN game at that.

The graphics are OUTSTANDING! Game play is well above average, interface is very good, and – heck – it’s...

Pros: Pretty
Cons: Gameplay, Clunky, Boring

This game had promise. I consider myself both a bit of a trekkie along with a gaming nut so this game was right up my alley. The problem is, this game was just outright slow!

There are some decent things about the game. The graphics are...

Pros: Beautiful look and feel, George Takei's voice, great music
Cons: Very complicated and with an instruction manual short on instruction, you can't move your ship off its 2-dimensional plane

When I picked up Star Trek: Starfleet Command, I guess I was envisioning the battle scenes from The Wrath of Khan. You know, huge vessels blasting away at each other, shredding off parts of each other's hulls, shots of the bridge with consoles exploding...

Pros: As close as you can get to starship combat without being abducted by aliens
Cons: Somewhat buggy, unclear briefings for some missions

Ordinarily I don't really like real-time strategy games all that much, but hey--this is an adaptation of *Starfleet Battles* we're talking about here. I remember playing Starfleet Battles back in my misspent youth, getting together with a few friends...

Pros: Graphics, Sounds
Cons: HARD, Demanding of system resources

I am a mild trekkie who couldn't wait for a good Star Trek Game to come out, so when I saw this one I ordered it with some of my "Gateway Bucks". To put it simply, I wish I could get my money back and pretend I never owned this game.

...

Pros: Looks and sounds great! Fun, fun, fun!
Cons: Complicated rules to learn.

About three months ago I played the demo version of SFC, and I knew then and there that I would definitely own this game. I am at heart, cheap. I don't pay $50 for a game no matter how good it is, so I bided my time and waited for the price to come...

Pros: multiplayer is great
Cons: single player is boring

Starfleet battles definately did not live up to my expectations for a single-player war game; however, it was definately a game of choice for use on my home LAN. With four computers hooked up to the LAN, my friends and I had a royal blast picking our...
