If you're looking for pure, classic arcade Centipede gameplay, check out Atari 50. However, if you're interested in a faster, modernized take on the essential fixed-screen shoot-'em-up, Centipede: Recharged hits the spot. It does include a "classic" mode, which doesn't quite feel like the original because of its horizontal orientation and vector-style graphics, but the Recharged and Challenge modes round out an entertaining package anyone can enjoy. Recommended!
