+1 point to Russell Clarke.
What's cool is that I just got all 4 seasons of the newer series.

Used to be frack waaaaaay back in the 70s.

Timmah!, frak is not a proper noun.

I don't know how they can do this without fraking it up. Are we going to find out there were other Battlestars? If its set on Galactica the story is already set and I really don't want to get in the middle of that.
The only way I could see this working is if its set 40+ years before the TV Series during the first Cylon war.

Yep, has to during the cyclone wars.

Holy Frakk! This came from nowhere. Aargh, I'm torn: love, love BSG but a decent MMO from it? How? Are any of the creative staff from the television show involved? Total brainsplosion to be honest.

"The company's mission, says Henning, is "all games must be browser-based without download installation, games you can play from any device you want."
I can't say this quote gives me much hope for this game. But that's OK, since I didn't like the IP much anyway.

Stargate is a better franchise for an MMO, and look how that went.
If it does come to pass and everyone plays tall blond cylons... Well, it might end up being rather an awkward game.

I'm a HUGE BSG fan but i cant see this going well at all. I'll have my fingers crossed.

This is most likely going to be browser based and made on a dime sized budget. For gods sake this is going to be so low budget and will not deserve what this fantastic series was able to do with artisitic integrity. FRAK! There are free lancers mods that are better than what this will be for BSG!

Wouldn't it be funny if this MMO actually was done right and became a huge success?
But we all know (those of us who frequent Massively) that the likelihood of this is less than 1% . LOL.
