Hard to find game that is actually worth the search...as long as you download the patch and find it at a reasonable price. The graphics are pretty good for its generation of design and the playability is sometimes difficult but fun. Your system needs to have some punch to run this game effectively. My P3 850, with Voodoo3 does a great job up to 1024 X 768, which is fine since the graphics are from the Unreal engine, which looks good at all resolutions. I can get Unreal to run at 1152 X 1024 fluidly, but not this one. The game is challenging and very faithful to the Star Trek themes with some (few) additional creative, but actually enhancing artistic license in the environments. "Elite Force" and "DS9 The Fallen" are better games with more fluid graphics, but this games still rocks. I would give it 5 stars if the game patch had not been needed and I could get one more resolution notch our of it with my graphics card. A good game. Get it if you can find it.
Great Game!January 21, 2002 K. Stewart(Rome, GA) I loved this game. The graphics in this game are so close to the actual StarTrek graphics from the TV shows that it's unreal. From the Klingon purple blood to the uniforms and logos it was just like being in a Star Trek episode. The only issue I had was that the game initially didn't support open gl and that made for some near slow motion graphics. Fortunately there is a patch that adds direct 3d and opengl support to the game and solved that problem nicely. If you can still find a copy of this game around, it is most definitely worth the money.
Excellent!November 24, 2000 Brian A. Wolters(Cabot, Arkansas) Finally! A first person shooter in the Star Trek universe and it is incredibly well made.
Klingon Honor Guard takes you from a holodeck mission, to Rura Penthe, and to a Klingon Bird of Prey all with top notch graphics and logical plots.
The game play is just like Unreal, so if you are used to those types of games, you will have no problem with this title.
While Voyager: Elite Force is much better, this game isn't bad. I highly recommend this game.
Uses the Unreal engine well, could be betterJune 25, 2000 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'm a Unreal, and a Star Trek fan. I think that this is a good use of the Unreal engine, although it isnt as pretty as Unreal. I only found the game extremely enjoyable after i started playing with the cheats.
If you hate star trek... then your opinion will remain firmJune 25, 2000 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
Klingon Honor Guard is definately one of the better Star Trek games out there, though that may not be saying much.
You play as a warrior in the Klingon academy sent to investigate an assassination attempt on the high chancellor. This sends you throughout the Klingon empire to find the assailant. Along the way you will run into all sorts of areas, most notably several levels on the Rura Penthe prison from Star Trek 6: The Undiscovered Country, and aboard a Klingon Bird of Prey warship.
Your weaponary utilizes some recognizable from the Star Trek universe like the disrupter rifle and the Bat'leth, the mighty Klingon sword.
In the end this comes together to be a pretty good game, even if you aren't a Trekkie.
