Star Trek Online: Mini Enterprise Documentary

Time does fly!  This year is the 25th anniversary of Star Trek: Enterprise (or just "Enterprise" as it originally aired?), and Star Trek Online has an anniversary ship bundle to mark the occasion.  I don't particularly care for the aesthetics of the ships of that era, but what caught my eye with this advertisement is the way they did it.  The ad for the new ship bundle feels very much

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Harbinger | Done

Back in the day, when "multimedia PCs" were new, and I had just returned from Greece, I used to spend a lot of time (relatively speaking) on Saturdays at Tower Records on my way to the Public Library. It was truly a multimedia wonderland, with music (in various formats), videos (also in various formats), and different types of video games (mostly of the computer games variety, I don't recall seeing

Voyager Across the Unknown - Gameplay Trailer

 Cautiously optimistic about this one. There seems to be something for everyone here.  I wonder what the final game will look like, and if it spans the entirety of Voyager's 7 years (or more) into the delta quadrant...

Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown

 Wow!  A second Star Trek game announced in the same week.  Cool!This one appears to be a "Survive the Delta Quadrant" sort of game.  Not quite the survival horror one that I shared yesterday, but survival nevertheless.  The cutout view from this trailer reminds me a bit of Trexel's (the original pixelated one, not the isometric reboot...)Looking forward to seeing this in Steam

Star Trek: Infection VR

 There's a new Star Trek game coming out for VR, titled "Start Trek: Infection".  A survival horror game is a bit strange for Star Trek, but given that Strange New Worlds opened the door with its "zombie episode" this season, this game doesn't seem soooo out of place. In the game you appear to be playing a Vulcan who is infected with [whatever plant or viral agent] that's transforming

Section 31 | A short review

 Last week Paramount released the Section 31 (made for TV) movie, set in the Star Trek Universe. As a fan of Trek I watched it, so here are a few thoughts, along with spoilers.  Don't claim you weren't forewarned ;-)There's a lot of hate about this film online, even before it dropped on Paramount+.  The familiar chorus of "It's not Star Trek" or "This isn't Star Trek, where's the optimism"

Steam Replay

It's a truism that I don't play a ton of Steam games. I have Steam, GOG, and Epic (and Amazon) installed on my Windows Partition on my MacMini, and while I spend about half my computing time on Windows, I don't really play enough to make a dent in statistics for some kind of year-in-review algorithm to give me something interesting.  The only thing you can tell from this is that I like Star Trek

GoodRead year in review

Well, it's that time of year! This is the time of year that many social media services use your data to create a Year In Review for the things you did on their platform. My cynical side is thinking that this is one of those "hey! pay attention to this, and not what else we do with your data" but I'll take it...I guess!I've been thinking about moving away from GoodReads over this past year, something

Star Trek Resurgence | Done

Here's a game that I made my way through just before the fall semester started! I finished this one just before the Labor Day holiday 😅.Now, I don't know if I'd call this a "game" per se. It feels more like an interactive novel where you have some spots where you need to do some actions (that feel like mini games), and some spots where you need to direct the dialogue and story, and as such your

Star Trek Legends | Done

Here's a game I "finished" this month.  I was curious about this game as it was an iOS Arcade exclusive for a while and the free three month trial of Apple Arcade was like a siren call... In the end, I skipped the mobile experience and decided to buy this on sale on Steam some time over the summer (or was it in the spring?)By "finished" I mean that I earned all Steam achievements, I finished the
