    It is not a knock off. Gene was the one who dictated the intro.

    That doesn't make it not-a-knock-off, though.

    Yes it does, it was made by the shows's creator, who is credited as a co-author of the song, and was licensed by the owners of the franchise. It is no more a knock off than the music used in STO.

    I went and looked it up. You are indeed correct.

    I'm gonna go sit over here...

    Should have just used a variant of the TOS theme IMO.

    I mean... I feel like the later 25th Anniversary and Judgement Rites games did better.

    Underrated track from an underrated album

      "The meaning of victory is not to merely defeat your enemy but to destroy him, to completely eradicate him from living memory, to leave no remnant of his endeavours, to crush utterly his achievement and remove from all record his every trace of existence. From that defeat no enemy can ever recover. That is the meaning of victory."

      I greatly agree. IMO, that's the best one on there.

      The new album is also really good.

      Resident TOS, G.I. Joe, Transformers and hair metal fangirl.

          Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
          JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

            Leaving aside the song for a moment. The video itself is so good. A swarm of Swordfish, you don't see that very often.​​

              Disco/funk Star Trek music. I actually made a disco/funk playlist just for playing STO. Includes disco Star Wars and even the Black Hole.

              Stuff such as The Siege of Vraks by Arch Warhammer, debates by Sargon of Akkad(who is running to be an MEP. I hope he wins), Warhammer 40k Lore by 40k Theories, or various topics by Vee. Sometimes I'll listen to other audio material like the narrative movie of Helsreach, Starship Troopers(the book not the movie), or the Darth Bane trilogy.

              Arch's series on Vraks is excellent, so is his other 40K lore. I had a good laugh with Tuska the Daemonkiller and enjoyed his series on the wars for Armageddon

                A lot of Arch's content is great. Creative and colorful with his vocabulary, especially if there are other people participating as well. Really liked his Dark Eldar lore videos, and the stuff on Magnus the Red.
