The award-winning Star Trek game casts players for the first time ever as Kirk and Spock in a totally original co-op experience worthy of gamers and fans. Set in the new canon of director and producer J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek (2009) reboot, players will be immersed in the game’s rich story and action-packed combat.
Under development by acclaimed Ontario-based developers Digital Extremes (Bioshock 2, Dark Sector, The Darkness 2), Star Trek features an original story by BAFTA award winner and God of War writer, Marianne Krawczyk, in collaboration with the writer/producers of the new Star Trek films, Bob Orci, Alex Kurtzman and Damon Lindelof.
Star Trek is in development for console and PC for a Q1 2013 release, for now check out this cool teaser trailer from Namco Bandai Games.

To me this looks like a VERY generic 0815-shooter that has been labelled with some succesful brand to attract at least the fanboys of this genre.
Do me a favor, please: Just imagine there would be no brand like Star Trek stuck onto this game. Instead, the story consisted of a group of nonames on a noname planet in a noname universe. Would you like it then, too? If the answer is “yes” you are either lying or cannot imagine how boring this game engine really is. If the answer is “no” then why would ANYBODY want to play this game even with an artificial Star Trek label? 😉
For the record: There have been TONS of Star Trek games released over the course of time. The thing is: None of them were any good. As i do not believe in wonders but in the neverending greed of publishers and developpers: This one will nicely fit in the history of horrible franchise-games.
