  Joystick control unusable. Too bad because game looks nice.

  Horrible controls.

  I love classic games, centipede is one of the best. these controls are a little tricky like others have said, but not too bad and still very fun to play. If you're a fan of classic games and 80's nostalgia then you must have this!

  Had to up my rating since servers are actually working again.

  You can change controls but screen is too small

  This could be a great game ... Could be , except everytime I play I want to throw the phone across the room . I love the game played it since I was a kid . It's time for someone to figure out how to make a better controller so the game can actually be playable , and it's playable you can't help but love it . It's a classic a worth better than this .

  Can you have any worse controls than this??? Actually all of these "Game Room" games that attempt to capture and bring back the greatness that was these classic games, suck in the controls department! Stop remaking, because your just killing the name and reputation of these games, and giving all first time players, the thought that "all ol school games suck, im never gonna try another." Centipide is amazing... Real version that is.

  Does not control well.

  Microsoft needs to get unification down between Games for Windows Live, Xbox Live and Xbox for Windows Phone. Why should I have to purchase the same game on each platform under the same Live hopefully Microsoft will fix this soon.

  Blaarg ... Controls :'(

  Game room games suck
• by WonderingWendy8/27/2011
  Yeah the controls suck. =(
• by EHOZoon8/22/2011
  The controls do not translate well to the phone at all. Pretty frustrating to play. Too bad, one of my favorite games. :-(
• by Kurai Freedan8/21/2011
  Trackball controls do not translate well to a touch interface. Extremely easy to hit the back button and interrupt the game. Pick it up on Xbox Live Arcade Game Room instead.

  Can't turn music off until you start game
• by EdRoc2137/15/2011
  Good retro feel of the game but trackball is difficult to move quickly across the board
• by StyxBoatman7/5/2011
  If you played/liked Centipede before then you'll feel at home with this version. The Game Room games always do good in maintaining that "feel.". This does very well in that sense with the trackball feeling right. Problem I had was that after many years of playing video games my left thumb does not move as smooth on the surface making play a bit unresponsive. It would be nice if you could swap fire and trackball. The tilt functionality is good, but didn't have that "immediate" feel. My biggest gripe comes with wishing they kept their cost model. On 360, you can purchase a version that works across PC and 360. Would be nice if this covered all platforms. Played on HTC Arrive.

  Just love retro games. Controls aren't bad at all, you just have to get used to them, looking forward to a lot more Game Room games.
• by daftpunx2346/20/2011
  I love the game but absolutely hated the controls, it is basically unplayable
• by Pointblank256/11/2011
  I wish they'd fix the twitchy controls; it'd be an awesome game otherwise.
• by xoxKASSxox6/9/2011
  Love the game ... Hate the touch play (I have a case on my focus so I can't quite get to the edges).
• by ArcticReconn5/23/2011
  Great game,especially for on the go. Pricing needs to be adjusted to $1,99. Hooah!!
• by Player1484325715/14/2011
  Plays clunky and yes I know how a trackball is supposed to control.
• by Mr Rick Smits5/12/2011
  The best Game Room title to date for wp7. Trackball is very nice.
• by Stoneware5/12/2011
  Too expensive. .99 cents for all games or my next phone will not be WP7.
• by RIOTdoc5/12/2011
  Its bad...
• by wutangfan815/10/2011
  Classic :)
• by bnielander5/10/2011
  Awesome game! From the other reviews it sounds like most are ignorant concerning how this classic game is supposed to be played. I hope they release millipede. Also, none of these crybaby idiots know what a trackball is or how to use it and most seem to not be able to spell as well. Don't leave a review if you can't spell. Don't leave a review if you are an ignorant goof. BTW, the sod you are laying needs to be green side up! Also, pro wrestling is fake, it's a show, sorry to spoil it for some of you.
