Vivendi dismisses Battlestar Galactica MMO as an industry rumor

Posted Jan 3, 2007 at 5:58PM by QJ Staff Listed in: Xbox 360 Tags: EBGames, Vivendi

Unfortunately, wishing on a star doesn't always work. Case in point: Battlestar Galactica MMO for Xbox 360. The title actually made it to EBGames' Coming Soon list but that's as far as it goes. According to 1UP, Vivendi SA is a video game developer; formerly known as Vivendi Universal">Vivendi Universal Games issued the following statement about Battlestar Galactica MMO:

EBGames has removed the information because it was not accurate. Vivendi Games has not announced a Battlestar Galactica game. We cannot comment any further as it is our policy to not comment on industry rumors.

Oh, well, it was fun while the rumor lasted.

However, 1Up remains optimistic as BSG writer and director Ronald D. Moore seems determined to hitch his ship to a star. He's just trying to figure out how to turn the sci-fi series into a game that "everyone in the U.S." wants to play.
