Galaxy supports multiplayer lobbies, chat, achievements, game updates and rolling back to previous versions. Galaxy updates are a day or two faster than patches, since developers can upload directly, but that doesn't matter if you are waiting anyway to get feedback on updates, and if you are keeping the patches you can effectively roll back by uninstalling the game and re-installing (or reverting to a backup of the game folder made before updating).
The
next version of Galaxy supports managing games on different platforms, and they are planning cross platform chat and some other features.
