The Borg appear as antagonists to the player in the following Star Trek game titles:

  • Star Trek: Encounters

  • Star Trek: Legacy
  • Star Trek: Conquest
  • Star Trek Online
  • Star Trek: Borg Contact

They also appear as the main characters to the player in the only Star Trek arcade game, Star Trek: Borg Contact, where players must squeeze two handles without letting go until the timer expires.

Activision at one point planned to release Star Trek: Borg Assimilator, in which the player would play a Borg, but later canceled the game.

In Mass Effect 2, Legion's loyalty mission – deciding whether or not to infect his fellow Geth with a virus that would re-write their collective consciousness – was inspired by the fifth season episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation: "I, Borg".

In Star Fox Assault, a Creature known as "Aparoids" invades the Lylat system, their goal is to assimilate all living organisms and mechanical devices, much like the borg. however, instead of an android humanoid, Aparoids appear as an insect like creature.

Famous quotes containing the words video games, video and/or games:

    I recently learned something quite interesting about video games. Many young people have developed incredible hand, eye, and brain coordination in playing these games. The air force believes these kids will be our outstanding pilots should they fly our jets.
    Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)

    In the past, it seemed to make sense for a sportswriter on sabbatical from the playpen to attend the quadrennial hawgkilling when Presidential candidates are chosen, to observe and report upon politicians at play. After all, national conventions are games of a sort, and sports offers few spectacles richer in low comedy.
