An attack on Star Trek becomes a war on Metacritic.
A new Star Trek PC and console game with a story-driven focus is in development at Jumpgate subsidiary gameXcite.
Oh, f$%&! They better not mess this up. Trek is miles better than any other Sci-fi franchise.
Keep up the good work!
They listened and made a physical version of Star Trek Resurgence, which I've pre-ordered, and I hope they make this new game both offline friendly and physical as well!
Immediate reaction - excited for new story driven Star Trek game.
Then I go and check GameXcite's website and see that the only thing they have released are a few Asterix games.
Set expectation to low
An old text-only strategy game remade with the graphics of the point-and-click adventure. The new version is now fully playable with a mouse only (also touch screen on Android tablets), but also with a keyboard only. You can also play with a controller by mapping cursor keys and Enter on the correct key.
This is very cool. I played many versions of Super Star Trek, some text based and some with rudimentary graphics. Back in the day, you’d get games like this off a floppy disk from a friend. I also played the 25th Anniversary Star Trek game. Cool to see a melding of the two.
Super Star Trek 25th is a remake / conversion of the strategy game Super Star Trek, written by Bob Leedom and David Ahl and published in the book BASIC Computer Games in 1978, mixed with the graphics of Star Trek: 25th Anniversary and the voices from ST The Original Series
I agree with his sentiments on Nintendo's Decision.
"No time for talking- time to show {Games}"
I said that they won't have a Presentation but they will have a "Present-Play-tion"
Getting people
(Press, Analyst, and Developers) to play and focus on their games is a far better idea (in theory and currently).
Plus, E3 is safe, it's not going anywhere.
lol @ modern masturbation! Seriously, I like this guy. Says what's on his mind and made some good points. Always refreshing to see someone who is not afraid to express their opinion. It's very true that Nintendo made a smart move. No need to jump into the massive fray at this point.
I cant believe people actually care about metacritic. I have never been on the site and probably never will. Scores mean nothing to me in the long run.
Thanks to metacritic, i managed to avoid Fallout New Vegas and the sort... there is always one or two "honest" reviewer out there. Yeah, scored a 95 when it was released with probably the highest count of bugs in gaming history. So.. fuck´em?
I just wish, sites like 4players.de would actually use metacritic as well... way too many "fake reviews" on that site.
Metacritic works fine for me. I use it to find all the individual reviews and check what each one had to say. The rest of Metacritic is a puppet show, and we all know who's pulling the strings.
