Battlestar Galactica fan made game
You may recall that a while back we told you about Wing Commander Saga, a fan-made extension to the Wing Commander universe using the open-sourced Freespace 2 engine. Now some similarly avid B*G fans are putting together another Freespace 2 powered game set in the (new) Battlestar Galactica universe called Beyond the Red Line. A demo has already been released that allows you to take on the role of a "nugget" Viper pilot aboard the Battlestar Pegasus. The voice-acting is actually quite a bit better than in WCS, and the artwork really does feel like it's from the show. There's even the option for online multi-player. Unfortunately, there are also some graphical glitches with bitmaps (as there were with WCS), and the Freespace 2 engine is becoming somewhat dated. Nonetheless, if you've ever wanted a crack at the Cylons, here's your chance.
A demo for Beyond the Red Line is available as a free download (for Mac, Windows, and Linux).
