According to a listing on the USK's (Germany's classification board for games) Web site, a game called Galaga Legions is pending release on Xbox LIVE Arcade.
At this point, all we know about the game is that it's being published by Namco-Bandai, the company responsible for publishing the much-loved Pac-Man: Championship Edition.
Could Galaga Legions be in the same vein as Pac-Man: CE or possibly even Space Invaders Extreme? We're right alongside XBLAH in hoping so.
At the very least, I think we can assume that Legions will pit us up against a legion of insect-looking aliens, whether it ends up being an innovative new take on Galaga or a collection of Galaxian, Galaga, Galapus, and Galaga '88 (Please God, no!).

"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

but if you've played pacman c.e., you know namco has the ability to take a timeless classic in need of no improving and make it better, while staying true to the classic. so i'll get my expectations ridiculously high.
I'll withhold bashing it until I see it :-)
