I hope it's less Gears of War and more Mass Effect.

Too hard to decide.

Be fair, friend, Mass Effect was trying so hard to be Star Trek that I'm surprised Leonard Nimoy didn't make a cameo.

There was a part in there that reminded me of Dead Space 2.

Finally a Star Trek mod for Mass Effect... though four years too late.

To be honest a better game would be you playing a rogue-ish character within the star trek universe, those guys always seem to have a lot more fun than the good guys of starfleet. 
 
Mind you that wouldn't help them sell their next film very well.

Really looks a bit like they are trying to go the Mass Effect way, but I don't think that's a bad thing.

Looking forward to it.

I'm on board. They're showing off the crazy action stuff to emphasize the production values, but have said the gameplay is varied in the way Trek fans would expect. Besides, it's Trek. I'll take whatever game I can get (except Online).

The best parts of Mass Effect are the setting and the conversations. Similarly, Star Trek's strengths have never been its action but its characters and ideas.

Reducing Star Trek to a third-personal shooter just seems contradictory and doomed to failure.

There's been a couple of Star Trek FPS games that were quite good. Perhaps not the best match, but the co-op dynamic between Kirk and Spock should at least work well.. and the new movie was pretty much all action anyway.

It looks very action heavy, but like I said before, the ability to have Spock logic a way out of a scenario or Kirk bone his way into one could make this pretty awesome.

Trailer looks very Mass Effect'y, if they have some RPG and talking in there too I might be interesting. Looked definitively a lot more interesting then I would have expected from a modern Star Trek game.

And now here is the third person cover based co-op shooter that no one wants. 
 
I better be able to dick some green alien chicks in this game.  
 
 
Edit: OMG i posted that before I saw the trailer.  Seriously?  That is what they are going with?

Very nice post-fx treatments.  It's got the rhythm of a Mass Effect-style rpg/shooter; I hope it can further that story-telling style as well.

A few parts there looked like Dead Space. When I think what I want in a Star Trek  game I immediately think third person shooter.

I'd rather take a Mass Effect clone with Picard, Janeway and the other characters I grew up watching. So much potential for a large sci-fi game going to waste... Then again, there's Mass Effect. :)

Though it does look kind of awesome, I'll have to give them that.
