Battlestar Galactica Coming to Xbox Live

Please, my dear friends, I implore you to avoid using 'frak' in your excitement over this announcement. I know, it's hard not to mimic your favorite tv show, but if we all hold hands, together we can stop this! Battlestar Galactica, the popular SciFi network remake of the 1978 cult hit, will be making an appearance at the Xbox Live Marketplace this September.

In anticipation of the new season of Battlestar Galactica, NBC Universal has created a special recap of all the important happenings in the miniseries as well as both seasons. Hopefully with as much Six footage as humanly possible. This special will be the first full television show available for download. As far as size goes, that much is unclear.

Premiering in October, season 3 of the show is said to be much darker. Considering the dark nature of the first two seasons, I can only imagine what we'll see now that the Humans are under Cylon control.



Fans have even more to look forward to with the upcoming prequel spinoff Caprica. The show would be set on the planet of Caprica fifty years prior and tell the story of the Twelve Colonies. The show is currently in the early stages of development.

And if you are curious about the differences between the new and old Battlestar Galactica series, an in depth Wikipedia page exists for your wondering mind.

Jiggity jawesome.

I fucking love Battlestar Galactica, and my only complaint about my current job is that I won't have much free time at all until November. I can't bear the thought of my girlfriend seeing it before I do.

Holy crap, I hadn't seen that preview video yet. It's so awesome that they had to set it to Nickleback just to reduce the chance of awesome-induced heart attacks.

This is pretty awesome. I'm glad the show is getting more exposure since it happens to be one of the best things on tv...ever.


And now for the shameless promotion:

For those of you who enjoy Galactica and want to discuss any of the seasons or how hot Grace Park (boomer) is, then feel free to join the Galactica Group.
