why? because they are all out to ruin the game for what, it is a star trek game, and any self respecting fan would buy this! it is the best space combat game in ages i think it beats all of the star wars games hands down, and im one of the biggest star wars fans out there.(iv got a lightsaber ;P)
im getting it for my birthday and all you need to do is get the demo, and you will see for yourself, that controls are easy you just move you ship up down left, right and activate you impulse engines :)
if you find it hard then invert the controls 'DUH'!!!
A must buy!!!
 Good Game. February 27, 2008

If, like me growing up you had a very vivid imagination and loved the thought of leading your own battle fleet then this is the closest you'll get. Graphics could of been a little better in key clips and the length of the game could also have been improved but apart from that good game.
 To Boldly go where no trek game has gone before! June 13, 2007

Now going past all the strategy games, and the odd FPS game, star trek hasn't gone that far in the gaming world. With the idea of a game that takes you through periods in Trek history, like the era of Kirk, and Picard, and giving you there period vessels, like the Constitution class, and the Galaxy class is a great idea, but like most people think its a bit flawed.
The array of vessels is quite impressive, from NX-01 to the Sovereign class vessel of the star trek movies, like First Contact. The enemy vessels aswell are very well detailed, and unique in there own way.
Not alot of games go without flaws, but this has a few that need to be thought over (to late now, but future games can learn from mistakes), the missions are the same!, even for a trekkie this game will be boring, and to add to this the combat system doesn't work for me, its a bit boring also, (you seeing a boring pattern?) slow moving ships, this isn't midway were you can planely see the ships moving a relativly fast. Legacy however has a slow combat system, and a sow overall game concept, apart from the jump warps, which redeem it slightly, but theres so many flaws!
Great Idea, however the game as a whole is boring and slow, but some small moments in the game make it fun, you just have to look past the slow combat to see the fun!
An enjoyable game June 12, 2007

I wasn't sure what to expect with this game but it's actually really good once you get into it. The game is broken down into 3 parts of the Star Trek era and you have 3 difficulty levels to choose from. You can also choose which ships to buy which change as you progress through the game.
I enjoyed the campaign story mode and felt it had good variety on each mission to keep me interested. I also enjoyed the combat system and that you can repair your ships when they get damaged in battle.
My only complaint would be that the control system is a bit difficult to get to grips with at first.
Overall, I really enjoyed this game and think it is well worth buying especially now it is at a cheap price.
Charging all power to phasers captain! April 8, 2007
Viva La Jam (?)

I myself am not a trekkie, i used to watch the shows when i was younger (voyager being my favourite)but when that had finished didn't really care for the new Series. But when i heard that this was coming out on 360 it brought back all my childhood dreams of taken on the borg in voyager. So anyway back to the game,it is very very awesome. flying all your favourite ships from all the shows and more. When they said that it has 60 ships they weren't kidding, although you may like myself find that you will play as the federation during skirmish. Graphically it isn't as next next-gen as other games out and i think that the xbox would have been able to handle this, but it still looks very authentic. It has all the voices from the captains are in here, although the first captain in the campaign sounds like his just reading the lines of the script, not really putting any drama into it, but still spot on. As for the SFX these don't dissapoint with the sound of your engines coming online or powering up the phasers and of cause warpping, although there is a problem, i'm not sure if it was just my copy or all of them but theres a gilch where when you are in a dogfight and the enemy ship is destroyed or if you warp away as it's doing then the phaser sound keeps on going on one ship until it fires again.
I haven't really played the campaign that much but from what i've played it seems alright but not really a challange for the average gamer. as for the skirmish this is very cool. The best moment i've had was when i first played it i didn't really know what i was doing so i started moving towards a nebula and as i was moving i saw a cube shapped object come towards me out of the nebula.
So what do i give it:
GRAPHIC: 8.5/10 not really next-gen but still impressive.
SOUND: 8.0/10 got every spot on although the sound proble and the
archer voice drops it
LIFE-SPAN: 8.9/10 I can see myself playing this for a while
GAME-PLAY: 8.1/10 The controls take some getting used to and after each
skirmish/multiplayer match you have to change all the
settings again which gets annoying
CLOSING COMMENT: if you wanted to always fly the ships seen in the show
then this is a game deffo for you, but i would buy it
cheap. If they also made the maps bigger and had more
players in the skirmish/multiplayer then this game may
have doninated xbox Live.
FINAL SCORE:8.7/10
