I would have given it a 5/5 tho because i always felt like this game really showed the full potential of the TG16. It was beautiful and they really held no holds barred. The music was great and very varied throughout. I spent a lot of time with this game. A true classic.

Isn't Gaplus a sequel to the original Galaxian too ?? (at the arcades). great video.

[spida1a]

@lord35ar Sure is. That is why this is the "third sequel." Thanks for watching, as always! :)

And to clear the Gaplus/Galaga 3 issue : Galpus was its own game but Namco changed its name in a later revision to Galaga 3 simply to increase sales. That's why we saw the 2 machines with the exact same game...

I think my problem with this one is my love for the 1981 arcade original. But for those of you that didn`t sink their quarters in the machine back then it`s a must try as it will test your reflexes in a way that a modern fps game can`t. Chris you handled this review superbly as it`s archaic mecanics are hard to summerize for today`s gamers... A great job. However will it make young gamers buy it? I doubt it but they have a shot at updated history right there, it's only up to them to grab it...

isit worth paying between $20 & $25? just for the Hu-card no manual box artwork etc...

[spida1a]
