  • Summary: [Xbox Live Arcade] Launch yourself into the intense space-shooter Aces of the Galaxy, a non-stop, old-school arcade thrill-ride for the twenty-first century and beyond. Utilize an impressive arsenal of upgradeable weapons including high powered missile launchers, devastating torpedoes, and the ever-reliant chain gun to annihilate the ships of the wretched Skurgian Empire.

Classic retro-arcade shooter action mixes with stunning next-generation visuals to bring the action up close and personal. [Sierra Online]… Expand
