Star Trek: Legacy for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

Okay, so first off, let me say, I imagine you'll get the most value out of this game if you're already a fan of the Star Trek series. That being said, I must say, for an RTS (a type of game I don't usually play,) I was pretty impressed. The first, and most immediately noticable problem is the controls. They take a while to get used to, and after a few missions, still aren't exactly second nature. My other major problem, is that they went to all the trouble to get the voices of all the Star Trek captains to do the game, and so far, I haven't even seen a CG rendering of their faces. Everything is the outside of the starship.
That out of the way, everything else is great. For an RTS, it's not the epic scale you're used to. I've got four ships in my fleet, and you control each of them individually. Your ships will attack without you, but you're always in charge of one ship, and when you hit the trigger, the phasers fire. You order repairs on the hull, they happen. It controls almost like a squad-based shooter. (Except it's in space.) Also, if you're a Star Trek fan, it's fun to hear all those Ensigns say "Aye sir!" The graphics aren't exactly up to Oblivion's standards (the game was made by Bethesda, in case you didn't know,) but they're still pretty decent. You can tell that your nacelles are damaged, on fire, or pretty much toasted. The layouts (you can't exactly call them terrain if there's no actual ground,) are pretty well varied. Certain planets are bigger than others, don't fly through corrosive nebulae, and don't fly into the sun.
As far as gameplay goes, except for controls, it's pretty good. It's not an out and out kill the badguy, there are protection and convoy missions, patrol, divide and conquer, etc etc. You can command the ships as one, or split them up into different objectives. Definitely check it out, hitting the "keep it" button is up to you.
