    Leg-A-Rama

    One of the greats of the arcade era. If video gaming culture had its own country, Centipede would be on one of the bills in the currency of this great nation (my vote is for the 100 bill. I mean, it just fits perfectly).

    I love how the centipede on the box art is all cute and smiley, when in the game he's a horrific, giant, multi-legged monster that needs to be destroyed at all costs before he lays waste to civilization as we know it! Or maybe the centipede is the hero, and it is YOU who are the monster. See? Centipede is deep like that.

    Also, 50 points if you can tell me (without looking it up) what movie the title of this review is pulled from. ;)
