Galaga Legions now on XBLA
As expected, Namco Bandai’s overhauled Galaga edition for the Xbox Live Arcade, subtitled Legions, is now available on the download service for 800 Microsoft Points. It brings new game dynamics and improved visuals to the arcade shooter series, just like Pac-Man Championship Edition did to its own franchise in June 2007.

Next up on the Summer of Arcade list is Castle Crashers. More on that next week.
This is another, solid, top-down shooter. Very intense gameplay. More forgiving than Ikaruga and easier to keep track of enemies than GeoWars:Evo2. Give the Trial a try.
Thanks for that sCHOCOLATE, I will!
Looks and sounds like a cool remake. I will check it out.
This was a instant buy for me lol, I watched the tutoral and didn’t even play the game. Just bought it. I love this game.
Ahh can’t wait to get home and play this!
