What's your favorite Star Trek game?
Gamesack
Star Trek the arcade by SEGA (also for the 2600, Colecovision, and C64)
Bro sweet intro!!!
Super Icheb Bros
But seriously it's star trek 25th anniversary PC my favorite point and click
Star Trek Shattered Universe (PS2, which is set in the Mirror Universe timeline of TOS) and Star Trek Invasion (PS1).
You must have got a gimped copy of Elite Force on the PC, because the single-player is indeed in there. Also, and I'm not making this up, I laughed so hard with the Manu bit, I gave myself a charlie horse. This is agony! And you're a good boy Joe, the Constitution Refit IS the best ship. Its all sleek and sexy.
Yeah, maybe it was on a different disk or something because it has a single-player game.
It installs two executables; Holomatch (multiplayer) and single player.
It's there on the Mac version too. There also released a patch that included Jeri Ryan doing Seven of Nine's lines, instead of the voice actress that is in the shipped version of the game.
Sadly, the Mac version was only compatible with Mac OS9. There was no OSX patch, so getting it to run on a current machine is pretty difficult.
EF is one of my favorites, especially when they came out with the addon that restored Jeri Ryan as Seven
Yeah! I seem to remember a pretty okay Borg murder-simulator attached to Elite Force PC. I only barely recall the arena shooter, even though it was all-but-expected given its origin from the Quake 3 engine. It's just what you did from '99-'02 or so.
Best Game Sack intro and special effects ever. Nice work, Joe, nice work.
@blake bishop No sarcasm.
@blake bishop Thank you! Or you son-of-a-bitch! One of those I think, I don't really know what's going on. lol
@@fjosh6 I like the intro I don't think he was lying or sarky :D Take the compliment man! I know as a man it's hard to do but you gotta bow your head or nod SOMETIME in life :)
Wait what? You didn't find the single player campaign option in the main menu of Elite Force? You must have run the wrong desktop shortcut, if I remember correctly it creates 2, one for single player and one for multiplayer.
It's one of the 10 best single player campaigns of 2000s PC shooters! It's a love letter to Star Trek fans, with the original cast and a better plot than most episodes of the show. They even made an expansion pack where all you do is explore the Voyager in its entirety. Joe you have to go back and play it.
You are correct. Even back then games were retarded and made you launch SP and MP separately. Like, what is so hard with having it selectable in game?
It does? That may have been it. That's kind of dumb though and hardly something I would expect. There are a lot of icons on that particular desktop so it makes sense that it would get lost. I'm too lazy to hook up the PC and boot it up again to check but so far your explanation sounds the most reasonable.
I checked the manual of the game and now I'm sure it's one of those games that had two shortcuts. I think it had something to do with the Quake 3 engine because Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Jedi Outcast/Academy and Call of Duty 1&2 did the same thing. Yeah, it's confusing.
Awesome, thanks for checking. It makes me feel a little less crazy now. I don't have the manual, only the case and the disc.
The single player of Elite Force is actually fantastic! I love that game!
By the way: You spend most of the second game on the Enterprise-E. It's just the prologue that's on the Voyager.
Star Trek 25th Anniversary on PC. Nuff said.
MetalJesusRocks my gems are hidden. Are you interested?
Judgment Rites was awesome , too
YES! My favorite of all time was that one and Judgement Rites
Absolutely. The two Interplay adventure games are Year Four in my headcanon. (Frankly, I wish someone would actually canonize them. I mean, they represent the last time the original crew was ever assembled for a project. That's gotta count for something.)
Depends on which gems we are talking about! Certain "gems" should be hidden!!! LOL
You guys got Manu?! That's amazing!
Who?
Ancient_Ys. It's Manu Anti... Inti... errr, its Manu Inti-ray-mi
Is it?
Bring Back Icheb!
How dare these game developers leave Icheb out! they should feel shame!
@@marakarthegreat his character sucked
@sifil311 hahahhahhahahahah
They finally did
You know they kill him in Picard, and torture him too! Gotta love new trek, they give the people what they want - the senseless and gruesome murder of a harmless yet geek character.
Captain Dave T. Greendog and First Officer Joe Redshirt take us on fantastic space adventures! Also starring The Game Chasers as nasty Klingons and Metal Jesus as the voice of the computer. And no Icheb.
Please do a part 2! You missed all my favorite ones. ST Armada, Invasion, Starfleet Academy, Klingon Academy, Dominion Wars, Bridge Commander, and the Starfleet Command series.
Ok, half of those are not good. But definitely a thumbs up for Armada and Bridge Commander. Also, they need to do 25th Anniversary on PC, Judgement Rights, and A Final Unity.
The Fallen and Vectrex too.
Shattered Universe on PS2 and OG Xbox is another one they missed. I know its not highly regarded or anything, but I thought it was fairly ok. Nowhere as bad as Star Trek JJ Abrams for 360 or Star Trek Trexels.
Starfleet Command that was my pick :) Most of the other games aren't up to much but Academy was ok I suppose. Too easy and too short imo.
And Final Unity
Icheb is one of my favorite characters on Voyager, as I watched a lot of Star Trek growing up. I especially and fondly recall the episode where he saves Seven of Nine by donating his...Cortical Node, if I recall? Its been a while. I'm really amazed you guys got him on your show! Great jobs, guys!
I'm sure his cortical node received full power when around 7 of 9.
@@yukatoshi are you saying icheb was FULLY FUNCTIONAL!?
Icheb is such a goon
Yes you are correct! I just saw that episode a few weeks ago.
This episode is a perfect example of why I love you guys so much! Hats off to Manu.
I wish my mom was alive to see this she was a huge Star Trek fan I was never a Star Trek fan I will watch it here and there I remember my mom enjoy Next Generation and the classic but her favorite was Voyager anything else you consider garbage do a good job game sack looking forward to next video
Mine hated Voyager lol.
I was the same, loved Voyager and TNG, hated DS9.
That was back then tho, nowadays I can appreciate all the trek shows, even Discovery. Haven't watched Picard yet tho!
@@Jesse__H I heard about the new Star Trek I haven't seen the show yet but I watch the trailer seeing a bunch of the actors come back for Next Generation and the actress that plays 7 of 9 from Voyager my mom would have been happy to see it I wish she was alive to see it
Wow, turns out the entirety of Game Sack was taking place inside the Holodeck, what a twist!
This was such a great episode, I'm always so impressed with how much production quality and effort goes into your work guys. Thanks for being some of the best creators on UA-cam.
What? No Star Trek Armada 1 & 2? You guys need to do a part 2 of Star Trek games.
Haven't started the video, but saw your comment. While I personally couldn't get into 2 not covering the Armada games is missing something vital.
That intro got quite the chuckle out of me.
I bet it's because greendog flying around.
Greendog aside, it was really impressive!
Fake versions of the original Trek theme have always cracked me up.
@blake bishop Ummm...ok.
@blake bishop Also, you must be at least in your 60's if I'm a kid.
I remember we had Star Trek 25th Anniversary for the PC and it was the first game that the whole family got together to play. My dad was on the PC and we all would sit around him suggesting ideas on how to solve puzzles and what to do next.
That sounds awesome. I have memories of gaming individually with my sister and individually with my pops but would've been real cool to have had moments wjere all 3 of us and even my mom got together and played like that
I enjoyed 25th Anniversary on NES largely because it was more like a PC game & not just another platformer. Also, the developers must've been Led Zeppelin fans, judging by one of the puzzles.
the way he says "joe and dave suck, game sack SUCKSSS" was so hilariously performed. Love it
The VR footage had me dying from laughter.
Lol I never thought random pointing would be so funny, but there it is!
I think he was actually trying to finger all the female screw members. I was laughing like an idiot!
You guys are amazing. Been here since day 1, and seeing the jump in production quality is insane. I've always told people that the knowledge and information you guys possess is a cut above most other channels.
The Manu bits are pure gold, and the outtakes are incredible haha.
I hope this show never ends...
😢
You had me at ""Moderately entertaining mission". 😍😂
I was LMAO at that bit 😂
GODAMN! Ya Just Gotta Respect That High Quality Production and Love You Guys Put Into Each Episode!! Nearly 10yrs and Going Stronger Than Ever!
Theres also a really great Star Trek game for the original Playstation. Its Star Trek Invasion which plays like Colony Wars
There was also a PS2 game called Shattered Universe, which involved Sulu's Excelsior in the Mirror Universe. I haven't played it, though.
Colony Wars! I was trying to remember the name of that game! Thank you!
@@BigAL68xyz it wasn’t very good.
This is a favorite episode guys. Huge trek fan here - very cool that you got Manu to guest star. Kudos dudes.
His part in this episode was the sole reason Icheb was recast and unceremoniously killed off in Picard!
I'd rather watch Star Trek V ten times in a row than watch a season of one of the post-2009 Star Trek shows.
@@KasumiKenshirou Types cheap, prove it and post it. 🤣
@@prpredatorz310 What...does...Jeff need...with a dare?
@@brandonginsburg3120 I hope you typed that to look like it was spoken by William Shatner and that's just not how you type.
HOLY SACK you guys really outdid yourselves with that episode. ROFL
I remember the Elite Force PC version to have a whole single player campaign.
Did you check if there is an alternative EXE you need to start for this? Sounds strange that you did not find how to play the campaign...
I get the feeling that outside of video editing software on the Mac, they're tech neophytes.
That was a fantastic episode. Superb production and editing. Those outtakes were great. Manu is hilarious.
That's some 'next Gen' editing there Joe:) top notch
@blake bishop depends on one's view of next gen I guess! Could be a compliment or sarcasm or maybe just a play on words:)
Omg Joe is a trekkie.. and I thought i couldn’t love this channel anymore! Fantastic episode guys, outakes are freaking hillerious
Great intro video.
Kirk always holding a spatula was funny.
Love your channel, and its high-quality output!
Love all my Star Trek Nerds!
Joe seems like he should be a Star Trek character
Anybody else get the star trek commercial for the cell phone game before watching this episode lol!! Joe and Dave! You guys friggin rock!!! 🎸
I don't know where your copy of Star Trek Voyager Elite Force for PC lost it's single player campaign, but mine had it back then. Enjoyed it very much and it's still my most beloved Star Trek game (even if Voyager is not my most beloved ST series).
Seeing Dave in a Fugazi shirt just made my day
Fugazi was super against merch. I remember seeing a “This is not a Fugazi shirt” outside a show one time- not official though.
Yeah it's kind of funny- Dave is a surprising guy. I was also kind of surprised he wasn't a Trek fan though.
Starfleet Academy is still one of my favourite games to this day
Definitely a missed game, also the DS9 one with the pah wraiths
@@MarkHoneyborne There's a lot missing here (TNG A Final Unity, the Klingon/Borg FMV pc games, Armada, Online, etc....)... which I'm hoping means there will be a Part 2 somewhere down the line ;)
Amazing episode! The intro was a joy to see, and I really like that you had a guest and interviewed him. You just keep getting better and better!
I give this episode a seven out of nine...
That's high praise/cup size.
I'm a huge Star Trek fan, so this video really tickled my pickle! I just can't get over how good the quality is on this video. The editing and pacing are so well done, and the intro is perfect! You guys are simply the best and getting better with every episode. My favorie Star Trek game is definitely Star Trek Online, it's just so realized and full of lore. This episode is a 10/10! Thanks fellas!
The snes and genesis versions of the next generation are not the same. Sega actually took over and finished the game, unlike the snes version, which is also way too hard and unbalanced mess imo.
Man it's so adorable when we get those small snippets from yall's past. Lifelong friends is something rare to see nowadays
Those beaming up effects are straight up ILM!
Troll much?
The argument against DS9 back in the day was always, "They never go anywhere." Glad to see that love has grown for the series over time.
i still don't like it.
it's a different genre, it's not exploration epic + moral conundrum, it's political + espionage drama.
the characters aren't as likeable either. sisqo can't really hold lead man in his own show imo. the addition of worf was an admission of the show that it needed some "star power" (as if worf was tom cruise or some huge draw, go figure...)
im not going to act as if the actors weren't any good, odo was pretty good, so was garak and quark was great. but what was that plot with the ancients? it seemed more like a plot out of xena warrior princess or another fantasy. the whole ancients arc of sisqo is a waste of screen. theres only some good drama with the bajorans coming out of it but it's nonsense. the show is also political, the bajorans are obviously meant to represent israeli somehow? you can tell because their holy cube is basically the merkabah. even their names sound israeli, not only of the bajorans but other alien names like elim garak sound middle eastern? the kardashians are also meant to be german,so there's that. the bajorans are a small "resistance/enclaved" type civilization with an ancient proud history, attacked on all fronts by most. who value their sacred things most. it's just too obvious.
finally, the departure of dax in season 6 was a stain on the show? and what was that lesbian kiss about, it's made out to be some powerful inclusion moment, but if dax was being harassed at that point, isn't it more logical to view it as the production just being gross
oh and what was that whole subplot about baseball about? or the one about cajun food? what random thing is that and it's not on one episode, sisqo's dad makes it, nog likes it, and jake sometimes takes over a restaurant that makes it. why? what about cajun food screams epic space adventure to you?
also the addition of the defiant in season3 is admission from the show that you are wrong too, and that they needed to fly places and have spaceflight combat.
Poor Manu, gets replaced by another actor in Star Trek Picard.
Watching this with the context that they totally wreck Icheb in new Trek is insane.
Game Sack getting Manu Initiraymi is almost as big as American Laser Games getting Wes Flowers
"What kind of stupid name is that?" Ah priceless. Great episode guys I can see you all had fun with this. Great editing, footage, a guest interview and appearance, loved it. Im not a big ST fan but even I know most of the games don't do the franchise justice and youd think they would. But then again some Star Wars games are hit and miss too. Hope you guys tackle that one. Awesome job guys!
The outtakes were awesome!
Blake: You know you loved them. You're not fooling anyone here dude.
Icheb is Wesley Crusher done right. Also I'm just gonna live here, in that interview With Manu, and pretend that..."scene" in Picard NEVER HAPPENED. No, no, no, shhhhhhh shhhhhh...It. Didn't. Happen. Ok? Capiche?!
How does a 40 minute video have 5 dislikes within 30 minutes of being published? I hate the internet.
One word, Icheb.
If you don't like something, you wouldn't watch the entire thing, would you?
must be star wars fans
Joe, Dave, Icheb, Bootleg Harry Kim, not sure who #5 was. Probably shady jay as he thinks star wars is better than star trek even though he is wrong.
what?? care to make any example? one the dudes girlfriend is asian, just sayin
the “suck trek” theme is amazing!
also thank you for being one of the channels that gives subtitle users a little extra love :)
#BringBackIcheb
"UA-cam , the frontier of yesteryear, these are the commenters of the UA-cam comment section, on their never ending mission to type original and unoriginal comments , to boldly reply where no other comment has gone before "
First!
"...to blandly go where no other salty troll has gone before"
It's amazing how less cringy crossover and guest stuff is with, you know, a real actor. But maybe he was Just a good dude for the job.
Edit: I had no idea how many takes that took.
Are Joe and Manu Intiraymi pretty good friends? They seemed pretty casual around eachother, making jokes and such in the outtakes.
Joe likes star trek. Icheb was in star trek. My guess is they bonded over star trek.
The less prominent trek actors tend to be more friendly and willing to do these kinds of appearances. Plus it gets more exposure for his project.
Star Trek has gotten so many sub-par games through the years. It's actually really sad. I do want to try out bridge crew at some point, if and when i get a VR headset for the PC.
I've got a friend, who's not at all into Star Trek, but i bought Conquest when it came out on the Wii, and i thought it was so funny, that every time that friend came over back then, the first thing he wanted to do, was play Conquest. I think it was his favorite game for a while there. :P
Justice for Icheb!
and O'Brien must suffer, don't forget.
Great job on this one guys. I love Star Trek, and I'm particularly fond of Voyager. It's awesome you guys were able to get Manu to guest on the show. I'm glad he was willing and able!
Please say you’re now friends with Manu. He fits the tone of the show perfectly. Do Star Wars games featuring Manu, so he can say how bad it is compared to Star Trek. 😜
BEST thumbnail EVER!!! Had me in hysterics! :-D And very, very funny video. Great editing, great content! You two - Joe & Dave.... two of the best! :-) Thank you...….
2:33 Man she really let's em hang out there!
That was absolutely hilarious, I finally lost it at the Bootleg Harry Kim. This is easily one of the best episodes you guys have ever made. Keep it up! Kudos to Manu Intiraymi for being such a good sport and a great guest. He's proof of the many genuinely nice and down to earth actors that make Star Trek such a great experience.
Love the intro and outro guys. Not a big fan of the series myself but you made it interesting nonetheless. BTW our company makes (Perfect World) Star Trek Online.
i watch game sack since day one....and i love it since day one....but since today...since i know joe is a trekkie....i love em even more =P you guys are doing a great show!!! and *lol* dave was young...at one point =P
those were some of the best outtakes ever!! *lol*
It's 2 AM EST, and I ain't sleeping until I get my Game Sack
wintdkyo literally me rn
you know what they say, I'm easy like sunday Mooooooorning.
It'll still be there in the morning.
Absolutely LOVED this episode! I had Star Trek Judgement Rites on my computer back in the day and played the heck out of it!
Bootleg Harry Kim, love it!
Nice job. AVGN did an awesome episode of Star Trek games as well.
One of the best Game Sack episodes by the way! Really really well put together and fantastic interview! My kind of humour with the holodeck for sure!!
Holy cow, well done boys. The editing was next level on this one!
Game Sack and Star Trek! Awesome! Loved this episode guys, set phasers to fun... I'll get my coat! ....
Oh my god!! The first few seconds alone made me unload my sack
Premature gamesackulation.
Star Trek and video games are two of my favorite things, sadly I feel they don't usually mix well but you guys have showed me some interesting games that I didn't know about to go check out (as usual). Loved the episode.
In all fairness I became an awesome helmsman. We need to play this again.
Game sack is the most re-watchable and enjoyable show on youtube!!
Just what I needed after a lot of stressful college work
Was going to write the same exact thing. You're not alone! Praise the sack!
This episode was awesome. Loved that intro. Was a bit surprised when you started talking about the PC version of Elite Force being an arena shooter only but had a campaign in the PS2 version. I remember there being a campaign (and a good one too!) on PC. Don't even remember the multiplayer portions.
I like Luke Skywalker
That jar-jar guy really ruined the Star Trek movies for me
@@frishdawgz thats star WARS not Trek you moron
You guys pulled out all the stops for this one. Perfect mix of effects, balanced between cheesy and funny. Great video.
Excited to see the notification for a new upload....
Wish I liked Star Trek 🙁
It’s 3:30 in the morning and I should be asleep but I am hysterical watching the outtakes!!!!
The sacks of the many outweigh the sacks of the few or the one.
I've been watching you dudes for years and I gots to say this video is by far the best Gamesack video ever. Thank you seriously thank you.
So i have been on a crazy DS9 marathon finally watching it for the first time after watching TNG and then you do a video about Star Trek Games?! Coincidence??? I think not! Dave and Joe you’re stalking me and my UA-cam history. I actually appreciate it though 😂 especially with great videos about Star Trek and retro gaming.
Edit: and you start with a DS9 game?!
Exactly like me hahahaha
Let me guess, you've been watching it on Heroes & Icons
kari jackson idk what that is i have been watching it on Netflix lol
No prob. It's a cable channel that shows every Star Trek series 6 nights a weeks.
kari jackson oh that sounds like a channel I’d love 😂
This is probably my favorite episode of Game Sack. Would love more like it .
Great episode i love Star Trek to bad most of the games kind of suck
Watching this in 2020. Can’t believe I didn’t see this till now. One of the best!
That opening... LOL
ROFL woke up for a midnight snack, saw THIS VIDEO. Thumbs up for the intro alone. lol
You guys should review game sack
They did. They said it sucks.
Gamesack the best show on youtube. How you guys always do this quality and amount of content is mind boggling.
The first game was on the Genesis, but you said it was for the Super Nintendo. Is this some sort of mind trick?
Nah the first game shown was for SNES and then after a minute or so I talk about the Genesis version. I created a "beam in" segment for the SNES and the Genesis carts, but I liked the Genesis one better because it reflects on the console. There's nothing reflective on the SNES. HOWEVER, I got much further in the SNES version when I was recording gameplay so I made it the primary focus of the review.
A "jedi" mind trick??? Lol
@@crshovveride That's Star Wars, not Star Trek. I'm cringing so hard now. 😂
@@Wykesidefruitmachine i know lol just trolling:)
I'd say this is your best episode. Funny, original, and it really kept me entertained. Thanks Joe and Dave!
I saw Star Trek once.
That's the one with the whales, right..? :)
its the one with the green midget elf and the tin can robot
I'm just passing by to tell you that the thumbnail of the video it's sensational! Congratulations for the idea: showed the idea of the video in a fun way!
never clicked on one of your videos so fast
I'm not a Trekky fan but this is by far my favourite Game Sack episode. Keep up the great work. Also Game Sack needs more manuintiraymi cameos. He seems like one heck of a guy!
Kirk or Picard?
Icheb
But he's not a captain
And yet he's still a better captain than Janeway.
Never thought of you two as Trekkies but this episode is a big treat 👍🏽
WHY NO ICHEB!?!!?!!
I haven't watched this channel for about 2 years and I am really happy to see that they are still getting better at making videos.
Good job, boiz. I'm watching this while taking a hot bath..
This episode was GREAT! It must have taken quite a bit of extra work to get the intro and closing just right, but the end result is spot on.
My favorite Trek game is the one you closed with. The sit-down version of Strategic Operations Simulator is really, really fun. A local pizza place had one when I was a kid; I used the money I earned from my paper route to play it a couple of times a week. Sitting in that “captain’s chair” and hearing Spock welcome you aboard was almost worth the price of admission itself.
I may have to give the TNG game on NES a shot now, after watching this. It looks interesting enough- I’m not sure why I avoided it.
