Dash Text: [ESRB: E (EVERYONE)] Single Player, HD (High Definition). The original Galaga captivated players all over the world, and now... it's back! But this isn't just a boring remake! Featuring table-turning game dynamics, super-slick visuals and mind-blowingly vast waves of enemies, this is the definitive version! Prepare to be hit by the second stick of nostalgic dynamite for XBox 360 Live Arcade by the same team who brought you Pac-Man C. E.! There are no refunds for this item.

I'm pretty sure I won't end up buying this because I still want to get Bionic Commando: Rearmed, Castle Crashers, and possibly Pirates Vs Ninjas Dodgeball. But, I want to try it only because the number of enemies on screen looks to be pretty intense.

Dang I had my weeks messed up. I thought it was Castle Crashers. I was excited to finally play it and see if the hype is justified.

I'll definitely try Galaga if I can pull myself away from Geometry Wars 2.

geometry wars 2 and rez hd are the only two purchases worth it on xbla.

 

[JoPh]

[nsafreak]

This is going to tempt me although it'll have to be pretty damn good to pull me away from Geometry Wars. I'm going to beat some of your scores Joph damnit. Finally put Spidey below me where he's supposed to be at we'll see if I can do the same for you .

I didn't care for Legions. I don't feel enough in control of what I'm killing, the entire time it felt like a huge spam fire fest. I did like the idea with the satellites that shoot for you though, that adds a whole new depth to the game.

I think the biggest problem with the game is that it was released just a couple of weeks after Geometry Wars 2. It is a very nicely done upgrade and re-imagining of the original Galaga. I really enjoyed having the path lines show up which forces you into split-second strategy decisions on placing your satellites.

But, I completely agree with the Xbox Fanboy review that it ultimately gets overshadowed by Geometry Wars 2.

MS please stop with the remakes/rehashes and more original games please.

I'm convinced he is a machine. My scores are horrible at Geometry Wars 2. The most I ever got on deadline was a little over 2 million lol.

I just found it funny that you were basically shitting on the game, then we "talked" you into buying it, and you continued to post some of the highest scores in the country.
