    I can't believe there is not a thread for this game yet. I don't know about y'all but I am checking the App Store every half hour for it.

    same here Galaga is my favorite arcade game of all time. I'll never forget the day I had a competition with my old man at the mall and we spent over $20 playing it at the arcade. I'm so stoked! I would have paid $6 for just the original but I see the remix as a pleasant bonus :D

    Before I moved, there was a bar I used to frequent, and it had the Galaga and Ms. Pac-Man cocktail tables. I will probably pour myself a shot glass of beer to set on my iPhone just so I can pretend to feel the authentic experience.

    I just purchased a Galaga / Ms PacMan arcade system for $200 off my local craigslist a couple of weeks ago.

    So any word on the price yet?
    Just wish they would come out with a retro game pac with 4 or 5 of their games for $9.99, the $4.99 per game is a bit much for some of them.

    The TA article says; "Galaga Remix will arrive in the App Store any day now and will be priced at $5.99."

    It's not JUST galaga. It's the original arcade version as well as the remixed version which is a full fledged arcade shooter take a look at the video on the home page.

    I used to have this game on my Razr. I always played on my phone because of that one game. It was so entertaining and all that good stuff,, I love this game. Can't wait until this one hits the App Store.

    I have spent so much on Galaga (in quarters.) $5.99 is a bargain.

    I can't help but wonder how soon "any day now" is. Does that mean it was just submitted and once Apple has approved of DS Effects' Virtual Pineapple, Virtual Doormat, Virtual PaintDrying, Virtual Hot Dog, etc, we will see this in 3 weeks? No, I have to stay positive. I know what will cheer me up; I'll check the App Store! Fiddlesticks: nothing yet. :(

    I have not been more excited about any other game yet. So what is missing from the lite version? It is still downloading so I haven't tried yet. The description makes it sound like it is only missing classic mode. If that is the case, I am shelling out the $5.99 ASAP.

    Same here. I mainly want it for classic mode. I'm not a retro nut, but Galga is worth getting excited about.

    They did a great job with Centipede, so I'm sure this will be just as good.

    Centipede is Atari. Galaga is Namco. But I agree that Centipede is a nice addition to my iPhone games family.

    LOL:p
    Yeah, I guess you're right. Anyhow, centipede was awesome.

    Namco certainly seems to be stealing their idea. I'm really not concerned about the REMIX version being good or bad. I just want the original.

    ouch.....$6 would be a bit much for me. I would wait if it were priced at that. And I am a huge galaga fan. I dunno. Maybe $2.99 and I would jump :)

    (I say then now, yet I bought Crystal Defenders after I swore I would never buy it. And its one of my favs)
