I purchased this game.

Frankly I am disappointed by sierra, this could have been an awesome game, anyone expecting a great game is frankly out of luck. Little thought was put into this game and it shows,

The controls for the joystick are sloppy and sluggish , the only way to play this game is with the keyboard and joystick, although the backdrop detail is impressive the game holds little appeal and frankly gets boring quickly. Although the missions are based roughly on series episodes, this is very to put it mildly very loosely at best, it only has ten missions, most of which are around 5min per mission.

Frankly this game  holds little appeal and would seem to me is just a way of cashing in on the battlestar galactica popularity, with little thought put into the game, This seems to be supported by the fact the multiplayer game is frankly empty most of the time and you will probably be lucky to find anyone playing on-line. I got this game on Friday and so far have only been able to play two on-line matches and that was not from a lack of trying.

Frankly, stay away from this one, if you don't believe me try the demo, it speaks volumes.

What type of game is this? MMO, RPG, FPS? I had heard they were developing an MMO...Is this what you're talking about? Or is it something else? What's the storyline? Is it new BSG or classic BSG?  :)

I agree.  THe game could have been better.  The achievements are VERY hard to get them all.
