I received this for Christmas 1998 and have been playing it ever since. I originally was hooked on the arcade game, but this CD game has an adventure game and now I am hooked on it. It took a long time and many deaths to finally defeat the queen pede, but defeat her I did and I still love to play all the levels (some more often that others) It really is great!

Disappointing if you're looking for arcade version

If you are looking for the classic arcade game, and just want to play using a mouse, this is not for you. Doesn't work well with mouse. There is an arcade game, along with the 3D version, but the arcade version has a "slanted screen" look I disliked. Also, game goes through a long boring intro without the slightest clue on-screen or in the booklet how to skip past it. This might be great for someone really into video games, who has a controller/joystick set up, etc. But I was just looking for a simple arcade version to use my mouse with, and this was a big disappointment.

Very Addictive and fun

This is fine example of how to move a console/arcade game to the PC. This version adds some more depth to the original game while retaining its fast pace. It also gives the user the option to play the original game as well which was a great idea.

I give it 5 stars because it delivers what the box cover promises, which is exceptional for a game nowadays.

Not your classic Centipede

When I bought this game, I thought I was getting the classic arcade version of Centipede that I always enjoyed playing. But this is a tricked-out 3D version that shares only the name with the original Centipede. I loaded it on my computer, played for about 15 minutes, then never went back to it. Forgot how much I disliked it the first time and loaded it on another computer, then remembered why it was sitting on the shelf. If you are looking for Centipede like you remember it from the arcade game, this is not it.

A completely new 3-d game or your favorite old classic!

The new version of Centipede is great! You can play the old Atari 8 bit version, but if you get board you can play the full rendered 3d game! Don't expect this too be a cheap cliche rip-off of your favotite arcade game, the new version is GREAT and only based upon the Atari version. But you shouldn't buy this ONLY for the Atari because if that's all you want you can download a demo version at a website like download.com but if you love the old one and you think you MUST see this new one, buy it!... WARNING: Surgeon General Warning. Very Addictive!:)

This game was kind of boring. And they expect you to beat this boring game? it got like 8 worlds w/ 100's of levels each on them. I would advise you to not waste your monet on this!

I got this game from PSP 1, and it has been my favorite game to play ever since playing Millipede off of the NES. I wonder if they are going to make Millipede for Nintendo Gamecube because that one had the bombs in it although it's similar to Centipede. Centipede can be played either as arcade or adventure mode. I like the adventure mode, which is the best game to play. The arcade is fun and it has a lot of memories. Because of that I used to play Millipede as a child and then Centipede came and I had never forgotten the title or how it is played. I think this game should be on one of the hand held games.
