Galaga goes completely batshit insane with the next re-imagining of Namco's shoot 'em up series, Galaga Legions DX. This is the next effort from the people who make the excellent Pac-Man Championship Edition games, so we'd better pay attention. More »

Namco is reviving two of its most memorable arcade hits—Pac-Man and Galaga—for the Nintendo 3DS, tapping into some of the system's most unique features, its gyroscopic tilt control and glasses-free stereoscopic 3D. They may take some getting used to. More »

The next Pac-Man, called Pac-Man Championship Edition DX, looks great. It's another trippy, techno remix of a classic Namco arcade game. More are coming, the company revealed today. New Galaga and new Metro-Cross. More »

Galaga may be nearly two decades old, but its previous world record score could only last two years, with Andrew Laidlaw's 2007 mark broken over the weekend by Phil Day. More »

With the MAME project ported to just about every platform under the sun—Dreamcast, Amiga, PocketPCs, digital cameras, cell phones—it was only a matter of time until someone ported the emulator to the iPhone albeit currently unplayable. I'm actually surprised it took this long—the thing has been out for almost two whole months already. More »

Are you into water sports? Do you like playing with fuzzy little balls? Do you enjoy...shooting aliens? I almost had a sexual innuendo triple play going if Nintendo hadn't included the TurboGrafx 16 version of Galaga '88, craftily retitled Galaga '90 (600 Points) to this week's Virtual Console update. Always ruining my fun. Joining its sexually ambiguous brother in arms this week is The Adventures of Lolo for the NES (500 points), which sees Lolo trying to rescue Princess Lala from the Great Devil, whose evil influence obviously led to the country of Eden's naming policy. Lolo, a small, fuzzy blue ball, must navigate a series of mazes to save his princess and indeed, the world. Need a little less pomp for double the price? N64 hit Wave Race 64 (1000 points) splashes its way onto the VC this week. It's the jet ski game so good that it inspired DOA creator Tomonobu Itagaki to include the sport in DOA Xtreme 2, and he hates everything. A nice little crop of games that should have you playing with your Wii all night long. More »

I try to stay on top of the t-shirt scene, but this Galaga homage from Verte Life (who?) slipped past my radar. Fortunately, Kotaku reader Joe tipped us off to Verte's lookbook. Unfortunately, that lookbook is from last year, which means you might have a hard time finding this sweet all over, old school print for sale at this point. More »

Good morning sleepy heads! Getting read for work or school? Before you head out of the house, just know that Namco's classic shooter Galaga is making its Live Arcade debut today. If that's not enough to make you call in sick, then how about over 250 levels, worldwide leaderboards and the original music. Swing by, download and tell bossman to shove it. Brian Ashcraft More »

Ever wonder how much gaming nostalgia costs? Well, apparently it falls somewhere between overpriced and expensive. Online retailer ExtremeToysForBoys (might wanna change that name) is over a cocktail cabinet that plays Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man and Galaga. Gaming nostalgia, it seems, is on even sale as the cabinet is marked down $600. The thang still costs three large, though. More »

Unfortunately, the contest is only open to people who were Verizon customers as of Oct. 1 and to enter you need to download Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, Galaga or Pac-Mania by Nov. 12. More »
