Thoughts on Canonicity of the Video Game

Brief history: The video game was originally developed as a tie-in to the Singer/DeSantos continuation project. After that fell through, it was substantially revamped and placed during the Cylon War of the Ronald D. Moore continuity. However, it clearly has a foot in both universes - many of the sound effects come from the original series, as do the appearances of most of the ships (notably the Galactica herself).

Nevertheless, the Video Game may prove to be our primary source for events during the course of the Cylon War. I suggest that where its events do not flatly contradict the RDM series, it can be used as a highly tentative historical source, as long as the dubious canonicity of the source is noted wherever cited.

The only things considered Canon should be that whioh is aired in the broadcast series. I do not think the video game should have any bearing or entries as far as the broadcast series is concerned. I would consider canon only that whick airs in the broadcast series or MAYBE thst which Ron D. Moore proclaims.

As far as I am concerned, anything in the video game is not worth considering.
