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 (TOS)|Starbuck]] and [[Apollo (TOS)|Apollo]] can appear as your wingmen (and are even voiced by Original Series actors [[Dirk Benedict]] and [[Richard Hatch]], respectively). | ||

* The 2003 | * The [[Video Game|2003 Video Game]] draws elements from items found in what was to become the [[Battlestar Galactica (RDM)|"Re-imagined" Series]] as well as elements familiar to the [[Battlestar Galactica (TOS)|Original Series]]. Because of this and new elements, the Video Game creates a continuity that is generally separate from the either series. The game was designed to complement both the Original Series and the "Re-imagined" series; an earlier incarnation of the game developed but never produced in 2001 was based on the [[Bryan Singer|Singer]] / [[Tom DeSanto|DeSanto]] [[Battlestar Galactica (SDS)|continuation project]]. | ||

This wholly contradicts the characterizations of both Original Series and Re-imagined Series, where Starbuck and Apollo are subordinates to Adama. Further, Adama is Apollo's father in the Original Series, so for young Adama to fly with his son of the same age (game cheat notwithstanding) is a temporal contradiction. An additional bonus mission for the game was scripted but never implemented in the final build; this mission would have featured the Original Series characters of [[Starbuck (TOS)|Starbuck]] and [[Apollo (TOS)|Apollo]] traveling back into the past to prevent the death of the young Adama. Details of that mission, including the script, are available [http://hometown.aol.co.uk/redwingproject/battlestar4.htm here]. | ||
