I would rather PSN get  Space Invaders Extreme like the PSP did, that looked more fun to me... at least graphics and music wise.

This is like the bastard spawn of a three-way between Space Invaders, Rez, Geometry Wars, and that episode of Pokemon that was giving kids seizures.  I might have to check it out now that it's on a proper platform.

Though I may just go play Rez some more...

@masternater27: Infinity Gene played more line an on-rails shooter than, say, SIE did. You'd go through a stage, fight a boss and then unlock more stages and modes. It also allowed you to play with your own music. Extreme had a lot more visual flare to it (as well as things like powerups) but I personally prefer Infinity Gene. It's super-different and a lot more fun. In my opinion, of course.

Felt like I contracted epilepsy during that flashing bit. 
Looks pretty cool, I'm glad it exists but I dunno if I'll buy it. Kinda got high expectations of it having that name. 
Also Isn't this the second new Space Invaders game on XBLA if not the third?

Infinity Gene remains one of the best games on the iPhone, I'm sure this will be fantastic for sure, despite being very different.

I loved Space Invaders Extreme, but I just can't seem to get myself excited for this.   Graphics and gameplay both look... odd.

I wish I had even the slightest idea how this game plays, but that was impossible to follow.
