    I found my old disk. It's a bit battered and won't read properly any more, doubt it would even work on Win 10 but yay!

    Anyone remember these Quicktime games with Star Trek Borg and Star Trek Klingon?

    I wonder if the original film still exists. It’d be too much to ask for it to be rescanned in HD, wouldn’t it.

    It would be a bit of work, no idea if the original film exists but in HD yeah some of the scenes when you screw up or Q messing around were so funny in the original. Also those scenes you got when you got to the wrong deck in the turbolift.

    What I really loved about this game is some of the mistake stuff like when you mess up Q talks to you but you see people going off stage deliberately and you see it's a stage and all but still Q is Q and it just is funny and enjoyable.

    If it (as well as "A Klingon Challenge" - the video board game by Decipher) had been done along with the Blu-ray conversions a few years ago, the cost could probably have been okay. They'd make neat extras. It certainly wouldn't be cost effective to do them now as stand-alone items. Maybe if they do DS9/VGR. Considering ST: Borg used Voyager's bridge and Flashback's Excelsior sets.

    They could always do a Starfleet Academy/Klingon Academy/Borg/Klingon/A Klingon Challenge/anything else that was filmed set. (Again, unlikely.)

    Disc? I just went found all my old Trek games over the weekend and it's a multidisc game.

    But I do remember that Klingon Challenge boardgame, we had it and a standard TOS boardgame I can't quite remember. My dad had a VHS to DVD converter setup around 2000 or so, I might ask if the game was one of them.

    I always wanted to play this when it came out, so it was really cool when I saw it on YouTube a few years ago. It's a nice 'episode', and the use of the sets is pretty cool.

    Managed to actually complete it back in the day. Takes a few attempts as you have to be quick with some of the prompts.
    I remember being confused by their uniforms since it’s the wrong one for the time.

    To be fair just because we didn't see them until the first season of DS9 doesn't mean they didn't exist for a few years prior.

    It's funny how the crew of Cadet Furlong's ship have the regular TNG uniforms, like they got them the wrong way round. They get the combadges right.

    The more annoying problem is the use of the later First Contact/Voyager phasers rather than the old TNG ones!
