Dark Mirror and Federation could've easily been movies. Battle for Betazed requires a bit of temporal futzing around to replace Insurrection, but the two part TNG Dominion War story could've easily done it. Rogue Saucer, The Romulan Prize, and Rogue Saucer could've easily been TNG two-parters...

Going by the show, they're the only group of people in the Federation that's consistently pragmatic, utilitarian, and equipped with foresight. Lots of people think they're evil because they don't buy into the Roddenberry ideal universe/philosophy, but that makes them look reasonable to other people.

Very nice. How was this done?

Weren't they mentioned in the Kobayashi Maru scene? I might be mixing that up with the deleted scene where the Klingons captured the Narada though.

15 photon torpedoes doesn't make sense unless you go with the hypothetical DITL torp magazines that have 640 torpedoes in them. And even then, you'd need to radically alter the pod geometry to get more than 2560 torps in there (half of the article's example of a reasonable number for an Intrepid...

Those phasers in the weapons pods. A bunch of them seem to be coming in directions with a circular rotation of the emitters, although the arcing of the pulses makes a bit harder to see. Having rewatched the scene on Youtube, there's nothing pointing either way. That said, reading and preferring...

Yeah, I saw that and was like :vulcan: It might work if they had bumped up the Eugenics Wars to coincide with WWIII or something, but not in the 1990s. Then again, a lot of the stuff mentioned in the article doesn't seem to work fit either Trek lore or their goal of reconciling the Space Seed...

They could literally fix that plot hole by saying that Starfleet brings in so much super-advanced alien tech that they simply can't research all of it or something. Starfleet isn't XCOM: they haven't really shown any ability to rapidly reverse engineer, duplicate, and improve upon unknown...

Pictures or profiles that don't work for me: The SIG-14 -You're showing the Vengeance's torpedo tubes there. Why not use the designation for the Gattling Phasers? SIG-5 - Is that a Halo screencap? It takes me out of the whole "this is nuTrek" vibe when you've got something that's so not in...

Here's hoping it's a GITS Arise style sub only release instead of being the final, end all, be all release.

I think there were one or two male sexbots in the background of that one dude's sexbot showroom.

These past two episodes have been the most enjoyable scifi pilot I've seen in a while, mostly thanks to the fact that the entire cast is not populated by assholes and/or idiots. The Kennox/Dorian stuff is pretty good, although the whole blue balls thing was a bit too much. The only part I...

As always, anything Doug and Andy help design is packed with neat little details, but this design just doesn't look good. I think the size of the central sphere and the docking ring make it look smaller than it actually is.

Paramount is too cheap to hire a development studio that's got a proven track record of competence. Back in the day, games were less sophisticated and cheaper to make, so it was easy to pump out a decent game. But now the things are so expensive that I doubt we'll get another Trek game worth...

Re: Windows 7 ST Game Install & Run Issues with Solutions Nah, I just didn't have the right patches and had to dig around a bit.

I just figured they spent the 25 years rebuilding the huge chunk of the ship that got vaporized and building up a cache of missiles that Nero burned through in like a day because he kept getting in fights. All the other explanations made everyone seem stupid.

People who read the Ongoing comic had a really strong feeling the Section 31 was going to be involved before the Countdown to Darkness comic basically confirmed it. The last US trailer before the movie came out that revealed the Vengeance pretty much sealed the deal for everyone else.

Maybe, but I don't think there'd be as much complaining about it after the whole "demolishing part of San Francisco" thing. It's more humane because you're not killing them and you're not hurting them. And I don't think that Starfleet would give a damn about the consent of a man who killed...

I too would've liked to see Harrison stay Harrison, but even if they didn't make Harrison Khan, they could've done him in ST3 or something else. Not using something immediately doesn't preclude using it later.

If you're talking DVDs/BDs, you are totally correct. Anything else? Total crap shoot. I fear the day when a book gets ruined because of Amazon not plastic wrapping it and delivering it during a rainy day in Florida.
