I was all “Starships don’t have joysticks!”, and turned it off in disgust.
I’ve also never played the old Trek adventure games, though I remember being really off-put by controlling Starfleet Academy with a joystick. This is pretty good news for folks looking for their Trek fix, but don’t want to get into my current jam, Star Trek Online. Thanks to a deal with CBS, t hey’ve just released three classic Star Trek titles to the service, namely the point-and-click adventure games Star Trek 25th Anniversary and Star Trek: Judgment Rites, as well as the space sim Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. NOX to contemporary players at low prices, rather than selling brand new games and launching alternatives to Steam? I remember (as does Pepperidge Farm), and from the looks of their latest release, GOG remembers, too. Remember when GOG was called “Good Old Games”? When the fine folks at CD Projekt were more concerned about getting classic games like, er.
