Or, it’s a failure, and the Trek license goes back to being relegated to cheap money grabs.

I think announcing this at IGN Live instead of Summer Game Fest or the Xbox Showcase was a mistake. Most Star Trek fans probably still have no idea this game exists. Announcing it at Summer Game Fest or the Xbox Showcase would have been a better choice. Most gamers watched Summer Game Fest and the Xbox Showcase, while IGN Live attracted a much smaller audience. From a marketing perspective, this is a poor start for the game.
