Galaga Legions is no simple port of the 1981 arcade game. Legions graphics are bright and dazzling. Rather than just shooting up at aliens that are sitting within a stark black starry background, the new game will cover your screen in multiple colors; the ship you control and the missiles you shoot will leave blue lines of light as they move, all the while the brightly colored enemies will come at you from all directions.
One of cool new abilities that will appear on Legions is the ability to access an entire "Legion" of ships to battle behind you. This ability will basically flood the screen full of firepower, destroying nearly every enemy in sight. It's a handy skill to have, especially since there will be times when multiple waves of enemies will come at you at once, making the new skill a necessity.
Major Nelson has revealed three new Xbox One Backward Compatibility titles. The Orange Box, a collection of five classic titles. Galaga Legions, a single player action packed take on the original Galaga and Joe Danger 2: The Movie, a thrilling platformer that can be played in 4 player multiplayer.

The waning days of summer are upon us, and for the first time in six years Microsoft hasn't kept the release schedule moving with its annual Summer of Arcade promotion. Part of that is no doubt due to the promotion's title. It's named after a delineation between downloadable "Arcade" games and larger retail games that Microsoft readily acknowledges isn't as relevant in the modern market. However, this summer passed us by without any similar promotion, even as Sony continued its PLAY program. Why? We can glean part of the answer by looking back at how the promotion developed over the years.
