To Boldly Go Online Where No One has Gone Before

We knew it was coming, and today came the official announcement from Cryptic Studios: Star Trek Online, the Final MMO Frontier. While some may call this little more than fan service, I know I have been looking for a strong Science Fiction MMO title, and nothing has stepped up to the plate. All quips and cliches aside, STO could be a great game, especially with Cryptic at the helm.
