There is no doubt that the original Centipede is one of the most insanely addictive arcade games ever designed. The Playstation release of Centipede includes the classic game plus a newly updated 3D version. The new version of the game is interesting, allowing you to move anywhere on the playfield as you blast away at centipedes and mushrooms. Although I love the classic game, the new version just didn't hold my interest for very long. Having said that, because of the simple objectives involved, I do think this game might be enjoyed by younger and more casual game players. Incidentally, the classic version of Centipede in this package plays brilliantly with the Dual Shock controller. All in all, a good but not great effort.

challenging, fast paced game remake of the origional. Suprising, twists and turns of the bugs that you battle. The only drawback is that you can't save progress after every sub level.

The old classic arcade game Centipede; truly one of the greatest games in video game history. When I heard of the Playstation title coming, I immediatley had to buy a copy of it. As soon as I got my hands on it, for a very low price, it was the first thing I did when I got home, only to play the greatest disappointment I have ever seen.

As my eyes met the screen, I viewed the most boring ... color-textures I have ever seen in a video game. A dorky little 7 year old, with way too large glasses and freaky haircut, who was the chosen one to rid the world of the centipedes. Not much of a storyline; it was more amusing to play Centipede without a story in the arcade. And like I said, the graphics were terrible. All was blocky, untextured and really showed proof that it was carelessly animated by a group of amateurs.

Getting past the horrible graphics and boring storyline, lets move on to the term they call 'sound' in the game. It has to be a cold day in hell when squeaky, toneless, flarvorless bits of crunchy tunes and smushed talking has to be looked at as sound. Besides the crunched up sound, the boring gameplay consists of rescuing tiny pipsqueaks and 'protecting' their houses from the jumping spiders (which also look and sound incredibly [weak]). Parts of the game also consist of driving around aimlessly, so do yourself and your money a favor...don't waste a penny on this game.

altho this game was popular in the 80's I and my family still Love to play this game

excitement, adventure and skills. Anticipation of what is going to happen next. The graphics are extrodinary. Fast pace.
