Reception
Initial reviews were favorable with IGN describing the Wii version as "an interesting game to say the least" and giving it a score of 6.8, but noting that the Wii pricetag means that "only hardcore Trekkies and hardcore strategy fans need apply".
Most reactions though, have been strongly negative, with a 54 Metacritic rating (PS2)". The out-of-character actions of Starfleet " punches gatling-phaser holes in purist Trekdom all over the place" and is seen as "an offensively bad use of a cherished license".

Famous quotes containing the word reception:
“But in the reception of metaphysical formula, all depends, as regards their actual and ulterior result, on the pre-existent qualities of that soil of human nature into which they fall—the company they find already present there, on their admission into the house of thought.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“I gave a speech in Omaha. After the speech I went to a reception elsewhere in town. A sweet old lady came up to me, put her gloved hand in mine, and said, “I hear you spoke here tonight.” “Oh, it was nothing,” I replied modestly. “Yes,” the little old lady nodded, “that’s what I heard.””
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
“Satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody’s face but their own; which is the chief reason for that kind of reception it meets in the world, and that so very few are offended with it.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
