The Battlestar Galactica video game was released in November 2003 (just before the unrelated Miniseries),

The game was apparently designed to complement the Original Series and the Singer / DeSanto continuation project in 2001.

The game creates its own continuity using some familar elements from both Original and Re-imagined Series continuities.

In it, the player takes the part of Ensign William "Husker" Adama, and flies his Viper on missions against the Cylons, lead by Imperious Leader Lord Erebus, during the opening days of the Cylon War. The only other character from the shows to make an appearance is a young Garris Cain; however, using cheat codes, the original characters of Starbuck and Apollo can appear as your wingmen (and are even voiced by Original Series actors Dirk Benedict and Richard Hatch, respectively).

Both the Galactica and Atlantia make an appearance; it is the former which the orphaned Adama lives on, having fallen in love with Iphigenia, the daughter of its commander, Magus.
