Browser Based Battlestar Galactica Flies Off Into the Sunset After 8 Years

Today is a sad day for players and fans of browser-based Battlestar Galactica Online as it has finished its eight-year run. The announcement was made early in January that the game would be closing on January 31st after rumors of its impending closure had been circulating for months. "We wanted to take the time to consider all possible options but after all efforts, it became clear that we will no longer be able to run Battlestar Galactica Online," the announcement reads.

You can read the full announcement on the BattleStar Galactica Online / Bigpoint forum.
