If you love MMOs then you know that Star Trek Online was released earlier this year. The new Star Trek game was developed by Cryptic Studios – the dolts who created Champions Online.
“Star Trek Online, great in concept, is only average at best. Cryptic Studios hasn’t impressed me with any of their MMOs and it’s a bit sad that they got the Star Trek franchise.“, Tim at Talk with Tim says.
But according to Optimus Douche over at PopTards!: “I love this fucking game. It is a perfect way to continue a fictional universe I cherish…actually make that covet. As a game – simply stellar.” I’m a little skeptical of a guy that calls himself a douche.
“While Star Trek Online might not be as finished a product as I’d like, it does have several things going for it.” says Mike Fahey from Kotaku.

“Allow me to introduce the worst kept secret of E3,” joked Kaz Hirai, president and chief executive of Sony Computer Entertainment of America [WSJ].
Although we’ve heard about the PSP Go for a while, Sony announced today that the PSP Go will launch in the U.S. in October 2009. Sony’s new portable gaming system will be priced at $249, which doesn’t seem very competitive since that’s $80 more than the current PSP-3000 and anywhere from $80-120 more than the portable gaming giant – Nintendo DS.
The coolest new feature, or one of them, is that games, movies, and music are downloaded and stored on 16GB of internal memory. No more crappy little discs!
Still…I am curious how Sony thinks that a higher price point will position them competitively considering the DS has sold more than double the number of PSPs.
