Aside from the fact that Invasion feels less like a Star Trek title than it does a "Colony Wars" update, it delivers the goods for a shooter: fast, furious, and addictive action.

While diehard Trekkies might be miffed, casual fans and space shooter freaks will love Invasion.

Other than slight pixelation in a few parts of the game, the graphics will leave you breathless and the sound is absolutely spectacular.

As it stands, I fully believe that, while many people say that Star Trek: Invasion lacks the feeling of a traditional Star Trek setting, I say otherwise. Thanks mostly in part to the presence of the U.S.S Enterprise, Lieutenant Commander Worf, and Captain Picard, they help to amplify the Star Trek feel. Each mission is carefully laid out and structured in a way that you really do feel like you're of great assistance to the Federation at large. However, I WILL say that my one and only major qualm with the Star Trek: Invasion video game is that, if players play the game on 'Cadet' difficulty (the easiest setting), they will only have access up to Mission 7: Red Sunset, and upon completing it, will be unable to progress to Mission 8: Edge of the Abyss unless they start a new file at the next difficulty level. But beyond this, I believe Star Trek: Invasion is a very solid entry as a Star Trek video game, and I really wish modern Star Trek games had pulled a lot more inspiration from this game. Heck, I even wish they could do an HD remaster of this game with some new features, like a better multiplayer system, maybe more two-player and single-player missions, and possibly even the ability to choose between the three Valkyrie vessels the player uses throughout the game.

Simply the best Star Trek ship game on any console system right now, it's a good thing that Activision took the time and care to give the Trek fans an experience worth waiting for.

With stellar graphics that really push the aging PlayStation's limits, Invasion is a feast for the eyes and a test for the thumbs.

It’s just too bad that one of [the missions] doesn’t demand that you seduce a curvy, green alien girl, James T. Kirk-style.

If you liked "Colony Wars," or if you like "Star Trek," you'll probably like this game. I didn't like "Colony Wars," and I don't like "Star Trek."

Although surprisingly well made graphically, aurally, and, uh, olfactorily (err, that's just my gym sock), it loses shield strength in the gameplay department.
59
Despite the game's fluid control system and innovative lock-on features, its pacing and repetition simply mar the gameplay experience.
