Pros Star Trek! Borg, Romulan, Federation, Klingon you choose.
Cons Bugs need to be fixed by Activision.
Recommended it? Yes

This game was purchased for me by a friend as a birthday present. Since then we both have enjoyed playing it. The game itself is excellent being the first 3D strategy game featuring the Startrek Universe.
This game features the Federation, the Borg, The Klingons, and the Romulans with... Read full review »

Best Star Trek Game Ever!

Pros Great graphics, great storyline, easy-to-learn interface
Cons Restrictive multiplayer mode
Recommended it? Yes

What was the Star Trek universe lacking? A good computer game. I don't mean to be insensitive, but before the release of Star Trek: Armada, I have been somewhat dissapointed in Star Trek computer games.However, now, Activision has changed it all with the release of Star Trek: Armada.

Multiplayer Hell

Pros Awesome 3D graphics
Cons Requires high-end equipment, too many bugs
Recommended it? Yes

I really haven?t played any other Star Trek games personally. A few weeks ago a friend of mine purchased it so we can play multiplayer. There are about 8 of us that play altogether. Previously we were playing "Total Annialation" which is real similar. First of all, Armada is an extremely picky game... Read full review »

Compatibility issues

Pros Storyline
Cons Bad interface, compatibility, replay value
Recommended it? Yes

This is another in the Star Trek games. It appeals to long time trekkie. If you aren't a trekkie, go elsewhere. This game is very fun for those who like Star Trek.

Getting this game to run is a big hassle. It only works in certain modes with certain video cards (e.g. only runs in 640x480... Read full review »

A Trek game worth buying!

byotaking Apr 26, 2000
2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Gameplay, replay value, ambience
Cons Bugs, lack of missions, contradictions
Recommended it? Yes

Being a Trek fan for ages, I've found that a large portion of the recent Trek titles put out (Starfleet Academy, Birth of the Federation) were, for lack of a better term, sucky. Hang onto your set of Vulcan ears, kiddies, because Armada is a keeper!

Gameplay is smooth (on my system at... Read full review »

Missing William Shatner Killed his Wife! Shame on you, James T. Kirk!

byskyth Apr 24, 2000
31 Helpfuls 32 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 2 Comments
Pros Best of the best in strategy games combined into this 2d Space sim
Cons Offers nothing new, and needs a bug killer like raid.
Recommended it? Yes

Humanity's quest to explore and exploit new worlds and new civilizations, and Kirk's personal quest to have sex with all imaginable alien females (some with green skin color), has long dissipated from the Star Trek scene. In today's politically correct and socially acceptable TV world, both... Read full review »

The best of the Trek games

byjared_ellars Apr 23, 2000
9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Great Graphics, plot, and full of options
Cons Lack of ship classes, resource hog, and still buggy
Recommended it? Yes

I must admit, this is one of the best Star Trek games I ever played. I love the story line, and the graphics and sounds are great. Activision has got a good title on their hands.

Reasons to Buy:
1. If you love Star Trek TNG and Deep Space Nine, you will love this game
2. One of the... Read full review »

An Unexpected Addiction

bywonder_biscuit Apr 4, 2000
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros sharp and beautiful in-game graphics, Highly-HIGHLY addicting play, immersive storyline
Cons cut scenes choppy on even a good graphics card, cut scenes rather simplistic, occasional...
Recommended it? Yes

I've got some minor gripes with this game.

Initially, I was dissatisfied with the quality of the cut scenes. While the opening movie is chock-full of tantalizing violence and exploding ships, it's grainy. Also, cut scenes are rendered in 16-bit color, with only the characters' lips moving... Read full review »

Pros Star Trek!
Cons None yet
Recommended it? Yes

This is the second game I purchased that contained the words "Star Trek" within the game title. My first was Star Trek: Starfleet Command and I was quite impressed by it. I didn't buy any others before that because I've seen the quality of the games and I wasn't impressed by them. Well, this is my... Read full review »

Pros A good Star Trek Game! Shocking!
Cons Graphic crash on top line vid cards - tsk tsk!
Recommended it? Yes

Oh boy did I need a new game! Oh c'mon, you know the feeling...the shakes, the long slow "I'll just be 5 minutes hon!" trips to the game store that take 3 hours. The need gets filled, finally, but usually, with garbage. Especially if you make the mistake of getting a Star Trek game - because lets... Read full review »
