In another thread, Drake113 notes that
Voice acting is great and the talent list is amazing-- everyone knows that Richard Hatch and Dirk Benedict are in it, but so is Kristanna Loken (T3), Robin Atkin Downes (Byron from B5), and even Dwight Shultz (With him AND Dirk on the project, there's just gotta be an A-Team reference or Easter egg somewhere in the game).
When I turned on my PS2 and fired up this game for the first time and then heard Richard Hatch as Lukas, I knew that the whole thing would be fantastic.
I'm surprised no one has noticed that the storyline was written by Grant Morrison, who is fairly well known and respected in the comic book field. He's written some brilliantly complex, exciting, and clever stuff. Superman: Red Son was a blast and had a surprise twist ending that involved time travel. He also showed a great love for, and deep understanding of, the source material (in this case, 1970s Superman comics).
The fact that he wrote the story for the Galactica game makes me suspect that it's going to be another reason to love it. For those more interested about him, his website is at http://www.grant-morrison.com/ but after a cursory look-through, I can't find any mention of Galactica or video games.
