I never liked StarWars really. But I think Startrek is kick ass. Ever played Startrek Armada? That game was kinda fun. Normally I hate startrek games and would never consider playing them. They always seemed a bit dumb, and just a quick money grab from all the startrek fans, but Armada was pretty cool. (Although, I hear Armada 2 was terrible. Like made by a different company and actually worse than the first kinda terrible. :blink: ) But yeah, you can beam onto enemy ships and take them over (but you have to knock out their shields first to beam over). Klingons also get borading parties I believe. It's way cool. Basically a RTS space game. Mine dilithium moons, build up your base (space stations), research, build a fleet, and go kill. Or send people to bloody and gory deaths, it's all fun. You also get to play around with nebulas which can have funny effects on your ships. I liked it.
Oh, and one of my favourite aspects of Deep Space 9, was the war. Not just a one or two episode war, but on ongoing war for the whole season. All the death, battle scenes, and cloak and dagger type missions. Especially the ones involving Garrick. Like the one where the federation tricks the romulans into the war on their side. Certainly gives you a different perspective of starfleet. Heh, same thing with those section 31 episodes.
