Before the 2003 “Battlestar Galactica†miniseries was released, Warthog Games created the “Battlestar Galactica†video game for Playstation 2 and X-Box. Its continuity is separate from the original and re-imagined series, as there are canonical inconsistencies.

Colonial Vipers are the mainstay of the Battlestar Galactica universe. They are the front line of defense and deadly in a dogfight. But why, after countless space battles, doesn’t the Galactica upgrade its Vipers? It’s because quite simply, every attempt to upgrade a Viper has ended in disaster.
To begin with, in the new millennial series, the software upgrades to modern Vipers were the cause of the colonies’ destruction: the computer equipment was too easy for the Cylons to hack, and with the help of Gaius Baltar they completely ruined the Colonial Fleet.I was More…

The Cylons threatening the remnants of humanity is not a secret in either incarnation of Glen A. Larson’s or Roger Moore’s Battlestar Galactica. Ronald Moore added a new dimension to the Cylons. In Moore’s re-imagined universe, humans could be sleeper agents. Throughout the series, characters who are part of the Galactica crew reveal that they are really the enemy. Colonel Tigh was the highest ranking member of the crew to reveal that he is not human.
The secret menace means that many More…

Fans of the original Battlestar Galactica series wanted a return of the rag-tag fugitive fleet first introduced by Glen A. Larson. It provided something that the original Star Trek did not.

The mini-series had newer technology to draw on and better special effects.
The newer technology is not why the show More…

Caprica initially showed great promise before it premiered on the Syfy channel in an attempt to continue the Battlestar Galactica Franchise. Unfortunately it never lived up to that promise and never really took off. The show failed to connect with fans and was cancelled before the first season finished airing.
Caprica promised a look at what made the (something) civilization so great. Unfortunately Caprica could not live up to the action packed and suspense filled Battlestar Galactica, and began a poor imitation in the form of an evening Soap Opera.
As a stand alone series, Caprica might have More…

Roger Moore’s annoucnement of a re-imagined Battlestar Galactica made many fans of the original series cringe. The show made several errors. The most prominent mistake was changing Starbuck’s gender, but the problems ran deeper. The re-imagined series has men creating the Cylons, rather than a now extinct lizard race. Although thee re-imagined Battlestar Galactica made many key errors in the universe creation, it also got many things right.
It shows a people shaken by the events of what happened. It shows the paranoia the survivors of a genocide might display. The new series serves as a More…
