05 Apr 09 Galaga Game of the 80’s Invading the iPhone Game App Market

To some people, Galaga may be something new. But for the people who were around during the 80’s and were hooked onto gaming, Galaga is a game that surely brings back memories and will draw some frantic attention.

For lots of people over 35 years old, the coolest place to be on a Friday night during our formative years was just as likely the local arcade in the local mall. Although the mall’s probably still there, the arcade likely closed years ago, taking with it memories of our misbegotten youth and dozens of classic games.

Well, we will never get the thousands of quarters we “invested” in saving the galaxy, but it will soon be possible to once again play Galaga, a title that helped define the fixed shooter style combat game, on the iPhone and iPod touch.
