Star Trek D-A-C 'Kobayashi Maru' Achievement to Require Cheat Code?

Marc "DjinniMan" Allie May 14th, 2009 at 2:11 PM    


Star trek D-A-C hit XBLA, PSN, and PC this week, featuring cool co-op outer space battles.  I've not had time to sit down with it yet, but I have to say the graphics, at least, look spectacular. 

Fans of Star Trek are likely familiar with the Kobayashi Maru, an unwinnable test that Kirk passed only by cheating.  It is featured in both 'Star Trek II: Wrath of Ricardo Montalban's Pects', and also the new 2009 'Star Trek' film.  It appears that there will be a Kobayashi Maru achievement in Star Trek D-A-C!

Apparently, the only way to get the achievement is to enter a cheat code.  No one knows the code as of yet.  Props to the developers for this cool Easter Egg!

"cheating" is against xbox live's terms of service
therefore, anyone with that achievement is violating the terms of service
its a trap!

The achievement might be a nice touch, but the game still looks like a piece of crap, and that's forgetting the fact that it has zero to do with Star Trek other than the names "Federation", "Romulan" and the likenesses of a couple of ships.

For the last time, he didn't cheat!

He merely "changed the conditions of the test".

While at the pause screen (in a solo game), press LT Y X X Y RT. This will unlock the secret achievement, and improve your ship's firing rate, speed, and shielding.
