Review


7When discussing the days of cabinet arcade gaming it's inevitable that you'd reach for the Namco classics, games which came to define a large part of every gamers childhood in the 80s and 90s. As of late, Namco has seen fit to bring back some of these classic titles with a new twist for more modern gamers, and so far they've been doing a pretty good job. Next up on the list of games to revive is Galaga, one of the worlds first top-down shooters that required both a steady eye and smooth reflexes to avoid lasers and dodge aliens. Sure, it's seen a fair share of remakes over the years but Galaga Legions is a pretty different beast when it comes to drawing comparisons between it and the original.
