Namco Museum Virtual Arcade: 30+ games. Namco Arcade game series: 1 game
"First appearing in arcades in 1981, the masterpiece GALAGA finally comes to Steam!"

Wow! But...uh...Why is Namco suddenly piecemealing Namco Museum for PC that they released in 2005 for Steam one game at a time now? Why not release the full Namco Museum that comes with 30+ games?

Did we as a community do something to anger Namco? Or did some market executive on drugs think that the old "game collection" model was outdated and people only wanted to play one game?

I guess we all bought Pac Man Championship DX in Humble Bundles instead of full price!

Wake me up when Namco snaps up a port of Galaga Legions or something. I'll buy that for a few dollars!

This new run of "Arcade Series" releases is for the newer consoles, the PC release is a bi-product of that.

Ah, I see what this is. It's the let's sell every single game individually as DLC treatment.

According to their press release, "Each arcade-classic release will feature HD resolution and have support for leaderboards as well as trophies/achievements," the publisher said in its statement."

What exactly is HD about these games? The sidebar graphics?

honestly i'd want to see a PC port/version of the Galaga 30th collection from the iphone, as it was one of the best pocket Galaga games. It had the original, Galaxian, Gaplus, and Galaga '88. it was pretty sweet.
