Star Trek Online is a great MMORPG!
A refreshing change of pace to be using futuristic weapons and commanding a starship, as opposed to the standard magic/swords of fantasy mmorpgs.
I have been playing the openbeta and now the headstart (game is released fully on the 2nd February 2010) and I have been hooked! The variation of space exploration and combat (vs klingons, romulans and many others) along side the ground based tactical combat with your away teams is just great!
Although its an MMORPG, you can still get alot of solo play if you prefer as your crew (NPC's) make up for the required number in the away team!
The graphics are great!
As with other mmo's there is a subscription fee to pay, so be aware when you are thinking about purchasing the title.
