    Although there are shortcomings, Legacy is an opportunity for Star Trek fans to experience ship battles from any of the Trek time periods. If you can look past the fact that you'll spend all of your time looking at the hulls of the ships, the battles can be fun.

    Pleasant to look at, but has very limited tactical depth. What is worse there is not really much else to do other than fire the phasers. Only a die-hard trekkie could enjoy this – and, sadly, probably will. [Feb 2007]

    This game could have been the be all and end all for Trek fans and action gamers alike instead of the sad capstone to a long history of crappy licensed video games.

    This game, despite it's little problems, is a blast to play. Anyone rating it lower than an 8 does not know a good one when they play one.

    They just copied the code from the XBox version, and put it on a PC formatted DVD. Why should I have to hold down a button and move my mouse to complete a task when I have over 100 keys?!? Space action shooters, should not be remanded to such ancient forms of control. But I guess that's what happens when you copy and paste.… Expand

    Graphics are sub-par, gameplay is horrendous, it's full of bugs, and there is no way to redefine your controls, or even see what button does what! It's a joke of a console port, and not at all worth the $40 I shelled out for it. Should've read the reviews before buying it.… Expand
