Figured I'd start off, with my Galaga scores as Galaga in all of it's incarnations are probably my favorite games of all time. Digdug is a close second, but Galaga has always been my first love.  Unfortunately, I'm at work, so, I'll post pictures later today.

Galaga 88: 120510 <=== Most recent.
Galaga: 320430 <=== Most recent.

You are a rockstar. This is the best I could do. Probably my most intense Galaga game ever.

I used to have a cocktail Galaga that I got around 350,000.  But then I sold it and got it in Jamma in a stand-up cabinet.  Now I can only get about 130,000.  So, I guess the cocktail was set on an easier level.

I tell you one thing...I can't get CRAP on Galaga 3.  It's about the hardest game I've ever played.

These are good scores. I am lucky to break 100k on Galaga. Great work!

I was able to barely break 100K on Galaga. I got 120K recently so I consider that a huge victory!!

I also had around 120k recently. My highest score ever at Galaga  Embarrassed
Always trying to shoot the bigger aliens while they are entering or coming down at me to get more points but this is often a risk vs. reward thing when the smaller ones are dive bombing and circeling around my ship.
I guess that´s one of the reasons why the original Galaga is still my favorite shooter.

I F'in love Galaga, but so far I can just break 100k. It was cool seeing the bugs change colors the first time around. I was like "ooh I never made it this far"

I can score 300k max, but there are guys that are scoring millions of points, I have no idea how they do it

Try playing Gaplus, I have video of CrazyKongFan on my YouTube channel playing my Gaplus, he is insanely good.

I went into an arcade that had three Galaga's next to each other, my friend looked at me and said "galagalagalagalaga..." it was funny when I was 13.

I got into a huge Galaga kick and was playing a lot.  My best is 1,419,650 using TG settings.
