Star Trek Online: the MMO
An overview, free guides, and essential links for Star Trek Online, the massively multiplayer online game.
Star Trek Online is full of references to known and loved Star Trek places and characters. Events take place both in space and on alien worlds. Some missions take players aboard other ships. There are player versus player (Starfleet vs. Klingon factions) battles for players who crave that action. It's a game any space game fan, and especially Star Trek fans, should check out.

In Star Trek Online you create a character who can be one of the traditionally recognized races from the franchise (Klingon, human, etc) or something new you create using their extensive character creation editor, who quickly finds himself (or herself) in charge of a ship. Gameplay takes you across space, to planets to help, to discover, or to fight, onto other ships in rescue missions, and, of course, there are space battles. They did an amazing job conveying the vastness of space and our smallness in it, and the art is amazing as you can see in the videos.
Leonard Nimoy and Zachary Quinto are two of the most well known voice actors in the game. Nimoy's narration as Spock is just one of the awesome ways STO immerses a player.
One of the things I most enjoy is the difference in landscape and flora of the worlds you beam down upon. It really brings the feel of discovering new planets. And the actual act of your character "beaming" is just too cool.
It's a pay to play game, requiring a monthly subscription. They offer yearly and lifetime options, as well.
