Hello, I'm a huge Sci-Fi/Fantasy fan. Maybe it's weird, but I'm not much for fantasy books, I prefer my fantasy in the form of movies/computer games. I'll take Sci-Fi in any form, though.
Specifically regarding BG, I remomber coming home from school and watching the original reruns whenever they were available. I liked the original series even though the only colonial death was Adama's youngest. I know there are a lot of haters of the original - I don't understand the hate... oh well.
I heard about the re-imagined series when it was in production, but didn't have cable so I only recently found it. I'm in season 2 so far, it's great. When I was researching BG 2004 was the first time I ever heard about BG 1980. I hear there is even more hate for it than for the original. Idk, I'd like to see it sometime eventually.
Speaking of my fantasy crossover, I love TBS games and Master of Magic is one of my all time favorite. Last week I was extatic to find out someone is finally re-imagining MoM. The new project is called Worlds of Magic and they have a kickstarter campaign that's getting ready to wrap up. The main page is http://myworldsofmagic.com/ which has a link to the kickstart page. If you are like me and like both Sci-Fi and Fantasy and like yourself some computer fantasy, check them out.
