 Trek in my pocket! April 20, 2009

This may be a biased review as i love pretty much anything star trek. Its a good trek game with simple gameplay mechanics. I think if this game were not portable it would probably not work as well for me. I like that i can pick it up and play for 15 mins here and there doing simple escort, seek and destroy type missions. There is ship advancement and you can upgrade your crew which adds a little rpg element. It you don't like star trek, you will probably find this game kinda bland.
Great game all the way around. December 1, 2006

Loved this game. Great even in skirmish mode. The federation missions are a blast as are the klingon and they play much differently because the ships are different play styles and strategy. If some reviewers don't think there is strategy to this game, then obviously they played it like some stupid sci fi shoot em up instead of the methodical game it is. The better you do, the more you unlock allowing different kinds of ships for multiplayer or skirmish. I HIGHLY recommend this game for anyone.
 Pocket Starfleet Command November 19, 2006

Pros
- a pocket version of Starfleet Command (SFC) that you can carry around.
- opening menus are very nicely done.
- contains campaign, skirmish and multiplayer modes.
- compaign plays like in SFC. You finish a mission and it awards you upgrade points that you can use to assign to your crew to improve your ship's performance (so it's like upgrading in RPGs).
- You are incrementally awarded command of better ships as you progress thru the game.
- Skirmish is instant action mode where you can choose from fighting in 1 to 4 teams of either ally or enemies simultaneously.
- AI is not bad. Enemies will keep their exposed shields away from you and cloak and re-appear on your weaker side to attack.
- Missions do not have to result in a large fight. By hailing ships negotiations are possible in certain levels.
- Load times are very fast compared to other PSP games.
- User interface is easy to handle.
Cons
- game graphics is under-detailed and quite aliased.
- sound effects are rather weak.
- gameplay is repetitive. You are constantly circling each other firing at openings.
- space scenes are not dense enough (nor interesting enough) so there is limited ability to use asteroids etc for a tactical advantage.
- no ability to beam commandos to take over other ships.
- no tractor beam to hold ships.
- ie it is a really watered down SFC.
- no targeting of specific systems so hull damage is defined as on the whole ship.
The short load time suggests that more could have been done but wasn't just to play it safe with this first release.
Buy this at full price if you want to encourage them to release future versions. Otherwise wait for it to come down in price.
Better than NOT bad January 6, 2007

This game is pretty good..
I like it WAY better than "Encounters" for the PS2...THAT game had TRUE clunky controls...
It IS sort of a hybrid between Starfleet command and Starfleet/Klingon Academy...
Most of the complaints seem to be complaining about things that could ONLY be fixed if the game was on a computer, not a HANDHELD....
I like it alot...
missions are challenging and the cheats for unlockables come in REAL handy!!
TOO bad either SONY or Bethesda/Quicksilver decided NOT to allow modding of the game AFTER 5 or so were ALREADY introduced!!!
Whats up with that...
Good game Good star trek game..Hope they make another!!
