Star Trek: The Next Generation (Sega Genesis)

If there ever was a game that truly captured the essence of The Next Generation, it was the game that was made for the Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo.  Titled "Echoes from the Past," the plot of the game could easily span a two part episode that the series did at least once each season.  The synopsis goes like this, an ancient relic is found and the Enterprise and her crew go to meet the Archaeologists that discovered it.  In the mean time the Romulans get involved and now you have to save the archaeologists.  After that you intercept a dormant unidentified alien ship and after waking the crew now set off on a journey to take their place in what can only be considered a race to acquire a powerful artifact.
