What did everyone think of this (somewhat TOS based) game?

For the record the Mark 2 was in the game and it shot lasers instead of bullets. To me it was a breath of fresh air compared to what we have now with GINO.

Thoughts on it?
Don -

I'm guessing that you're talking about the video game that came out a couple of years ago. It was actually a "prequel" kind of game - it took place while Adama was still a Lt. With the TOS sound effects for turbos and laser fire, it's like a dream come true. You get to fly a Viper and blow up Cylon Raiders - wahoo! The game isn't one that like an easy game to play - the AI is somewhat unpredictable and the "save game" points in the game are spaced pretty far apart. I think that the major difference during game play is the use of missiles - both the Vipers and Raiders have them.

It's a blast to play! I need to get my PS2 hooked up again (forgot about it after the move) and play BSG some more. It's frustrating, but cathartic at times!

Best,
Bryan
