The events depicted in The Fallen tie into the Millennium saga, a trilogy of Star Trek paperbacks by Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens, published by Pocket Books and Simon & Schuster. So how does The Fallen fare in comparison to these other titles? Well, suffice it to say that, what Elite Force did for Star Trek in the first person shooter genre, The Fallen accomplishes in kind for the third person action/adventure genre. The most recent Star Trek release is Deep Space Nine: The Fallen, developed by The Collective and published by Simon & Schuster. Among them are Voyager: Elite Force, Starfleet Command II: Empires at War, and Armada (of course there's also New Worlds, but they can't all be winners), as well as a number of upcoming products that show great promise, including Bridge Commander, Dominion Wars, and Away Team. This persistent gaming curse on the Star Trek franchise has seemingly been broken, however, with the recent addition of several well done titles to the inventory. Past efforts to cash in on the popular Star Trek license have resulted in a long string of games ranging in quality from slightly above mediocre to downright poor. This rather harsh judgment is not entirely unwarranted. In recent years the gaming community has come to view any game with the words "Star Trek" in the title as pariah, unworthy of even a second thought.
