I kinda doubt anyone will see this post, but w/e. =P Does anyone know what the song is called that plays at the beginning of the game? I want to find some sheet music of it, it sounds incredibly cool when it's played well on the organ. ;)

well i saw ur post - here it is : The game's background music consists of portions of J. S. Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor, BWV 565, in a modern rock style. Gyruss was the first arcade game to use stereo sound. hope to have helped

This game was good, but waaaaay too easy. u had to be the 1st person in the arcade and on the machine to get a go as 10p would last even the most mediocre player half an hour or so, with the better players being on for literally hours

oh how I loved this game! it's imprinted in my brain with it's awesome music, strangely cool circular gameplay and that big ship explosion you could hear all over the arcade!

Actually the idea of making the ''Galaga'' idea into a sort-of-3D shooter could have been inspired from Atari's ''Tempest'' arcade game, so the idea is not completely original but it is awesome and was a success.

Took the galaga idea turned it on it's head, konami made it their own, great job guys.. dose anyone know who made this game? back in the there was a person creating an arcade game, I would like to know who made this... and what other games were made by the same person...

i was a big fan of this game in the arcades when i were a kid.My highest score was just under 4.000.000.I got this score at the arcade in the fairground that comes to East End Park (Leeds) every 5th November (Bonfire night) it was around the year 1983 i got this score i were on the machine for a good few hours on a 10p piece (good days lol)

El mejor juego de mi vida de secundaria

NES version is way better than the arcade

It still blows me away how genius it was to put this music to this game. I remember it intensifying the gameplay so much! Great stuff.

Favorite Arcade Game Ever. As for being difficult, depends on the settings. I played the game in many arcades and each had different difficulty settings. I now own this game, full size arcade machine. Still love to play. There was never a good home version, all were really bad or modified.
