The game rocks! hehe. Normally I'm not a fan of frag games, but this one is really cool! It was fun roasting all those borg drones! and the cut scenes were kick ass! If it's one problem I have though, its that it sometimes locks up on me for no reason. Is this a demo bug or is something not configured correctly?

Could be your graphics card. I don't think it will run on my system because I don't have a 3D accelerator OpenGL whatever card.

If it was my graphics card, why doesn;t lock up as soon as all the graphic intensive stuff gets started? I don't know. As I said, it only sometimes locks up. hmmmm I wonder if there isn't a patch available at a website or something.

It's a demo. Unstable. Bit buggy. That's why it locks up at certain points.
Btw, the full version is very stable, so if you like the demo, I can recommend it

That's so sad.... It works perfect on my old PII 266Mhz 128mb SDRAM, 10Gb HDD, but then again I have a Voodoo3 in there so that's probably it
-------------------- Me- Hi Jen! What's up! Jen- You again??!?! Listen kid, I'm not interested in you. Stop bothering me, I'm a lot older than you and I have a boyfriend. How did you find my ICQ number anyways? Me- Oh, so just cuz you're a movie star now, and you're new album made millions, you think you're too good for me? Jen- Yes!!! Get it thorough your head! I am a person, I am not Jennifer Lopez the hottest woman on earth that everyone wants to sleep with, I'm a person, leave me alone!!! Me- Fine! Be that way! Me- Jen.... Where'd you go.... I love you... please come back.... please....

Kick ass!!! I just found Elite Force for $22!! hehe. But, alas, I still can't afford it. Is it just me or has the world been setting up everybody so that they can't afford anything anymore?

It doesn't need a OpenGL compatible card. A Direct 3d compatible one works.
Actually, I don't know ANY game that wants an OpenGL card, but refused to accept a Direct 3d one.
".... It works perfect on my old PII 266Mhz 128mb SDRAM, 10Gb HDD, but then again I have a Voodoo3 in there so that's probably it."
Not to criticise your set-up, because I used to have something pretty bad, but bragging about owning a Voodoo3 is like bragging about owning a Betamax.
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

I played the game. it was ok. I found that it was real short. and the loading times were slow even on a 900MHZ. the animations were kinda jerky. It looked nice overall though. not really any in depth stuff though. you just go through the level and blow stuff up. i wouldn't buy it for my own computer but a couple friends of mine, really like it.

I just ordered the full version yesterday. for 27 dollars. Jerky animations you say? I didn't have that problem with the demo. And I have a lowly 650 MHZ computer. I also found the loading times to be fairly brief. I guess more MHz doesn't always mean better!

Well, they weren't really jerky, poor choice of word. but they seemed rough, the characters movements didn't seem smooth. when they changed direction, it seemed like the whole action took 1 or 2 frames. they were facing one direction, then the other. they developers could have taken a little more time to smooth it out. the character animations seemed rushed. but overall. it was the best star trek game i've seen so far.

650? ha!!! lowly? HA!!!!! i have a pentium 2 333MHZ, so don't be talking about a 650 being lowly!!! it also has a 10 gig hard drive, it used to have a 3 gig, but it died. hell they don't even make 3 gigs anymore. 128 megs of ram. ATI rage video card. about 4 years old. needless to say, my computer sucks!!!!!
