In an interesting choice for the upcoming co-op Kirk/Spock Star Trek game, the goofy Gorn will take the role of
rummy best the primary villains. Probably best known for the legendarily bad fight scene between my

rummy golds out
rummy mars to be good bad guys. We’ll know more about the game soon. Oh what the heck, let’s watch that amazing fight scene one more time:
