Summary: Not only the best Star Trek game ever...
Review: ...but also and amazing FPS game on its own! I have played through the demo dozens of times, and if the rest of the game is even just half as good as the demo is (and from what I've seen it looks to be even better than what was in the demo) then you will not dissapointed! This is also one of the most beautiful games available. It makes incredible use of the Quake 3 Arena graphics engine. Believe me, at 2048x1536x32 with all options on full, this is the best looking game I have ever seen, and it looks great at the lower resolutions too! The gameplay is simply amazing, making use of interactive scripted sequences, with multiple outcomes depending on what you do! The use of your teammates where they are availible is very well done, with them doing there job without any direction from you - No more having to try get them to just the right spot so that they will do what is needed. I rank this game up with Half-Life for how good it is, and it is probably the best FPS released since Half-Life. If you are still not convinced, download the demo - it is about 100mb, but it is worth it, trust me (though it is a tad short).

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: More Fun Than the TV show..
Review: ..but that is not saying much. What I will say is that the game is a lot of fun to play and the graphics are excellent. You have a wide assortment of weapons to frag with, from a hand-held phaser to a personal photon torpedo launcher. The level designs range in quality from good to spectacular (I love the one with the "invisible floor"). I recommend this game to anyone who likes Star Trek and FPS games. Elite Force is what "Voyager" should be: a fun experience.

Summary: Be a star in your episode of Star Trek Voyager!
Review:

Star Trek Voyager : Elite Force is a Excellent game!

Finally it seems that someone has put to use the excellent Quake III engine and has produced a game where you become the main character in a Star Trek Voyager Episode. Elite Force is more than a First Person Shooter game, its a peek into what it would be like to be a part of the crew of Star Trek Voyager. True Voyager fans will appreciate having the Collector's Edition for the extra's like the Voyager pin and a special limited Voyager Elite Force comic. Anyone who is a Star Trek Voyager Fan like me has to have the Collector's Edition.

The storyline is based on a alien race that is hijacking nearby ships in order to build a army that will obliterate the Universe as we know it. Voyager is disabled and transported by one of the alien probes to thier space junkyard. Voyager is crippled and kept in the space junkyard by a space station called "The Forge" that creates a warp damping field. The junkyard is filled with ships that look to have been ripped apart and stripped. This concerns the crew and it is up the the special trained Elite Force team that you lead to find a way to get Voyager to avoid destruction and out of the junkyard and resume its mission back to Earth. Get prepared for some fast paced action and to be fully immersed in a episode of Star Trek Voyager specially created for this game.

The graphics and sound are very intense in this excellent game. Realism is at its highest thanks to the voice over acting of the Star Trek Voyager Senior Officer Cast. Everyone is there to provide voice-over's except Seven of Nine (Geri Ryan) who was busy working on a movie to do the voice over. The voice-overs truly bring the game to life and a familiarity of the setting if you have been following Star Trek Voyager on UPN. The most funniest voice over provided is Tom Wilson. Tom Wilson does the voice over for Hazard Team Rick Biessman and he is halirious! You can remember Tom Wilson from playing Biff Tannen in the Back to the Future Movies. Some of the battle scenes are pretty intense and just walking around the borg ship makes me nervous even though its a game. You will not be dissapointed by some of the missions. Many of the puzzles are not very complicated as to not slow you down as you progress thru the missions. You will also get first hands on some very kewl weapons, like the Hirogen minute-man rifle. You get to shoot it up with Klingons, Borg, Species 8472, Scavengers and Humans not to mention a very tough boss fight at the end!

This is a game that is sure to please any Star Trek Voyager Fan. If you are ready to star in a Star Trek Voyager episode and interact with the Senior Staff and its crew, then add this game to your cart. That is all Hazard team member, dismissed!

Summary: Not The Best Buy
Review: Although the product description at this point is not existant at this point the "Collecter's Edition" doesn't usually account for the lack of new areas and features. I'm not buying it!!

Review: Ever wanted to be on an away mission? Well here's your chance. This is a must have for any trekker and non-trekker alike. And remember to "SET PHASERS TO FRAG."

Summary: Outstanding Star Trek Game!
Review: For all those who said that there were never any good games from a TV show, you were probably right... until now. Just browse the Internet and you'll find that dozens of computer review sites agree with me!

First of all, the graphics: this game is based off the Quake III Arena engine, which means it looks fantastic! All the characters are great looking and the ships and environments where the game takes place have been recreated in exacting detail. (It's so good in fact I've convinced myself to buy the Expansion Pack which has a "Tour Mode" where one can walk through the entire ship... it's as close as I'll ever come to getting on the set!) Sufficed to say, it's the best looking Star Trek game I've ever seen!

Next, gameplay, for what is a game if it's boring? IMHO, Elite Force has plenty to offer; I've played through it on the middle difficulty and have started it again on the hardest setting. I'm not sure how long it took me to beat it, but I didn't have a "Hmm, that's it?" feeling at the end... FYI, I consider myself a fairly adept first-person-shooter gamer. The scenarios and tasks are challenging and the mystery and "What's going on now?" feeling is definitely present, making for a very exciting game. The added humor between some of the Hazard Team members (namely Chell and Beisman) lightens the sometimes serious mood of the game.

Next up: sound. The SFX are essentially the same as on the show, each weapon has its own sound (of course!), and all the characters from the TV show have joined up to voice the game (except Seven of Nine in the premier release; you'll have to download the patch to get her voice in the game). What more is there to say?

Now, to the specifics of the Collector's Edition. In addition to the game and manual, it comes with a CD Music Soundtrack, lapel pin, and two part comic book. I think the music is excellent, and have stored it in my MP3 player... although I was a little disappointed at first that the opening title wasn't the same as in the show, I've come to enjoy it quite a bit. The CD also contains some game art. Regarding the pin, I've to agree with Minh Doan that it's not the communicator, but instead a STV:EF logo pin. Oh well... one of few, if any flaws in the package. The final item is the comic book with two stories: I haven't actually read the book in order to preserve its "mint condition" but it's a nice addition.

Overall, I'd recommend the game to any FPS fan or ANY Star Trek fan (this is what you've been waiting for Trekkers!). Even if you don't like Star Trek, you'll enjoy this game because of its value, not only as an FPS, but as a simple strategy game. 5 stars!
