OK, For years I've wanted to play Galaxian 3 aka "THE BIGGEST ARCADE GAME" as it was known back in 1990 when Namco unveiled it. I first saw info on it on System16 a few years back and thought "MAN, that looks cool!" then I learned it was ported to PS1 in Japan in 1995, an early title, and so I started looking for it.......and looking for it.......and looking for it.......... I could never find it on Ebay, or on places like Play-Asia or even on Torrent sites but boom, I found a copy last week, mint condition never been unwrapped! from National Console Support up in New York! and they had it for 23 bucks!!!!

So I recieved it today and MAN, its awesome, like a freaking fully immersive ride, its like Starblade but with CGI video clips and awesome music and voice work! and its 4 players too! Freaking Namco Rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sixtoe, thank you! If it wearn't for your site i'd have never learned of this great game!!!!!!

Any time :)

If you ever get to hunt down the real arcade version it's totally fantastic.

Sadly, one of the screens was going out and the arcade operator wasn't too interested in keeping it up. About a year ago they got rid of it :(

I went in there a few years ago and it was either stuck on freeplay or someone put in hundreds of tokens, because I played it for quite a while.

I wonder what they did with that thing. Last time I was in there, there was a mountain of old game cabinets/parts scattered all over where it used to be.
