Alright, You've seen 'em all. Which sci-fi series do you think comes to mind when you enjoy playing the BC series and explain to me why you like it and it's high points in believability, story, and technology. Here's a list but tell me if I'm missing any or incorrect.

Star Trek

Babylon 5

Battlestar Galactica

Space Above and Beyond

Buck Rogers

Flash Gordon

Roughneck's Starship Troopers Chronicles >Cmdr. Kron

Spectre Fleet

ICV Vanguard

And remember, conflicting arguments saying which series can beat other series in terms of technology and all that junk is not welcome. Been hearing these type of things in other forums too many times and it's pointless.

While playing BC, I'm sorta reminded of Battlestar Galactica. Basically because here you are in command of an huge ship with interceptors that could possibly be Colonial Vipers. You have shuttles just like the Galactica's that can transport rovers down to planet surfaces. That's just my take anyways! smile.gif

BTW, I don't really use the transporters much..the Galactica never had them! wink.gif

none really. BC3K doesn't really compare to any TV series IMHO.

The v.2 BC reminds me the closest of Battlestar Galactica with the command of the ship and fighters. Now I have a wait and see attitude for BCM don't think this newest version of BC will quite compare to any series once it's released.

I do, Aramike! Being a fellow Marine like yourself, I guess we related to the show. It was a very good show IMHO, and it's run was cut tragically short.

It was an awesome show, Sho! (Show, Sho, hmmm) wink.gif

Seriously, the finale left too many unanswered questions. Probably had to do with the money involved. FOX couldn't afford it, I bet. The only other thing was that squad of Marines were made up totally of officers. And they did work for a living! wink.gif I loved that show!

Any idea where to find some video cassettes?

Space: Above And Beyond.

Now THAT was a show. Must admit, some of the episodes were kinda arse, but the premis was good and I followed it all through it's short run. If ever there was a TV show I'd bring back to life, it would be that one. Still, they killed off at least one of the main characters, blew the leg off another, had two more go down on some alien planet somwhere and left the wimp n the nipple neck to carry on with the fight. Sigh.

Anyway, nothing to do with the topic. Nothing currently can compare with the BC universe. Not that I've seen anyway. Speakin of which, you guys aware of the new Star trek movie due next year?

Gee, Aramike, I'm thinking that I had saw some episode videos on Space: AAB, at either Suncoast Video at one mall or The Wall at another mall. I can't remember for sure. I think the SciFi channel is showing the reruns, but I'm not sure of the day and time. It's a long shot, but here's hoping that someone will revive it.
