Star Trek is one of the most recognizable and popular science fiction franchises in modern times, with international appeal. Originally starting out as a TV series in the 1960s, Star Trek has branched out to feature films, books, comics, board games, miniatures, and both single-player and multi-player online video games. It has had significant cultural impact, both in creating its own sub-culture (with members often being referred to as "Trekkies") and in bleeding into popular culture (as evidenced by the commonality of phrases such as "Beam me up, Scotty.")
Star Trek's impact in gaming has also been significant, even proving a driving force at times for the video game industry. Recent Star Trek games include Star Trek D-A-C, for the PC and Xbox 360, and Star Trek Online, an MMORPG for the PC.
