Battlestar galactica is fun, albeit extremely difficult. The phrase "practise makes perfect" applies here like no other. The learning curve is quite steep, but once you master the Viper's (surprisingly) deep controls, you should do well.
Pros:
-Beautiful scenery, immersive environments
-Ships are highly detailed and true to the original TV series
-Fills the childhood urge to fly a Viper
-Unlockable content (including original Ralph McQuarrie concept sketches) is fantastic for BSG fans
Cons:
-Extremely steep learning curve will turn away most "casual" gamers
-Distance between save points is discouragingly long. There's no worse feeling than finally getting close to the end of a mission and then having to start all over due to a dumb mistake.
-Not incredibly innovative as a standalone game- the major draw here is for BSG fans.
Overall, if you're a BSG fan, you should enjoy this game as long as you don't expect to clear every mission on the first try. If you're not a BSG fan and looking for a good space flight sim, you may want to look elsewhere.
