Related Topics – Bethesda, Star Trek, William Shatner

According to this story on Yahoo!, actor William Shatner will reprise his role as Captain James T. Kirk for the upcoming Star Trek: Legacy. "I couldn't imagine someone else playing Captain Kirk, even in a video game, so I kind of got a little territorial". Star Trek: Legacy, due out later this year, will feature missions, ships and foes covering all five Star Trek TV series. Thanks FiringSquad. Update: Bethesda sends along a press release announcing that all five captains will be voiced by their original actors: William Shatner, Patrick Stewart, Scott Bakula, Avery Brooks, and Kate Mulgrew.

You know what I've always felt was the problem with most ST games? The series was never about the action or huge space battles (although sometimes they came into play), it was about the characters and how they coped with different situations. ST would make a good adventure game, although I think there was one such game and it wasn't that great...

Fucking XM or MLB ... I don't care but fuck one or both of them.

And what is with this shitty player?

As far as I'm concerned, there were only three captains: William Shatner, Patrick Stewart, and Avery Brooks.
