Here’s a trailer ramming home the news we told you of yesterday; that Leonard Nimoy, aka the original Spock, will feature in the upcoming Star Trek Online.
Shame there’s no blooper reel. I just want to hear him say “pig iron” one more time…
It’s probably a rather wise user engagement strategy too; using such a familiar voice for narration will definitely make the story and gameplay more accessible, for fans of both old-trek and new-trek.
Was great seeing him a little bit on Fringe, had great voiceovers for Civilization 4, and I have no doubt he will be wonderful in this too. Such a specific and different voice, unmistakable!
