XBLA?  Doesn't sound like it'll be the sort of opus we're all expecting from BTRL.

Battlestar Galactica: Official Game announced?
Something popped up on Vivendi Games' Investor Presentation. Battlestar Galactica game is coming out from Vivendi next year on PC and XB360. I sure hope they don't mess this one up or do the same thing what they did with Babylon 5: Into the Fire - Space Combat Simulator, almost finish the game and throw it into a garbage bin.

Honestly... I believe BSG FS2 mod will beat this game.

Don't they own Sierra now? :nervous:

Yeah, they do. Havas was disbanded and then Vivendi was formed. Or that is how I think it went.

I recall RDM saying that there were plans for a game based on his BSG incarnation, but that it would be more like an RPG.

Re: Vivendi has a BSG title in production
it might be the rather lackluster BSG game released for the xbox way back when.

it was made by the defunct Warthog development.
