For forty years Star Trek has engulfed our imagination and sent us on voyages across the galaxy. Take a look at the technology behind the gadgets used in the series.

A few years ago, it seemed that pretty much any game with "Star Trek" in its title would turn out to be terrible. One of the first games to buck this trend was Starfleet Command, a tactical starship simulator from Interplay and developer Taldren. Based on the Star Fleet Battles board game, it was a modest success among strategy gamers and was well received by Trek fans for its slavish devotion to Trek lore. Today, old Trek seems a distant memory, and the newest installment in the Starfleet Command series is boldly striding into the future with a new publisher, a new setting, and many changes to gameplay.
