One Shots: Nostalgic

Let's face it -- one of the reasons so many enjoy Star Trek Online is due to having Star Trek on our televisions for many years. Whether you grew up with the original series, The Next Generation, DS9, or one of the other iterations, there's a wealth of story to build on that hearkens back to our favorite Trek moments. Today, we have a lovely nostalgic shot from regular Massively reader, Greeen, who writes in:

One thing that unfortunately has not been mentioned too much in reviews so far since launch of Star Trek Online is the main storyline, which can be compared to perhaps LotROs epic storyline (difficulty aside). As part of this episode storyline in STO, one encounters the ancient portal from the "City on the Edge of Forever" (mission is called "City on the Edge of Never"), [where one] time travels and gets to meet the original USS Enterprise! Despite all its implications, this gave some awesome morale boost to my crew, on the USS Nostromo II, captained by Lt. Commander Xelander.

We love MMOs: from the old to the new! But we rely on readers like you to tell us about their favorite adventures. So, why not take a moment to email a screenshot to us at oneshots AT massively DOT com this weekend along with your name, the name of the game, and a quick description. We'll post it out here and give you the credit.

One Shots: Meep!

There are times when you just know you've gotten in over your head. Of course, to the resourceful player, this just means a fun challenge! One such occasion is the subject of today's World of Warcraft One Shots, sent in to us by Greeen, who has been playing a Gnome Death Knight. Greeen writes in: This shot was taken in the Valgarde Catacombs. My first reaction was "Gulp!" ! The second one: "Attack!" The third: "Run Forrest, run!" Luckily this is from a quest where one receives a temporary immunity bubble - otherwise my little gnome Death Knight, Blues, would really have to show what she can do....

Are you once again (or perhaps for the first time) turning to Azeroth for your adventure? If you've snapped a fun screenshot from your favorite game - no matter the MMO - we'd love to see it! Send it in to us here at oneshots AT massively DOT com along with your name and the game it is from. Descriptions are optional, but always welcome. Yours could be next here on One Shots!

One Shots: Smuggler's beach

We don't often hear from our friends in a galaxy far, far, away, but we're glad to get 'postcards' from them when they have a moment to send them. This nifty evening-time screenshot comes from Greeen, who took a moment out to relax while playing Star Wars Galaxies to send along this lovely visual for us. Greeen writes: [This is] a beach on Naboo which invites a smuggler to relax a bit from all the questing, hunting, and smuggling. (Sorry if I can't show my face - you know how the business is, no?). Enjoying the view can be just as fun. All it needs now is a nice partner. Sadly, we don't know what server Greeen is on in Star Wars Galaxies, or we'd tell everyone to pop over and say hello to him on the beach!

If you're playing a game we haven't highlighted here recently, we'd love to see your screenshots. It's always interesting to check in on lands we don't often see! Just snap a screen and send it to us here at oneshots AT massively DOT com along with your name and a quick description of the image. (Server info, guilds, etc are also welcome in there too -- it's up to you.) If we use your image, you get full credit for sending it along -- plus you get the bragging rights of showing everyone you game with!
