Lemmings (2006 Video Game)
''Lemmings'' is a 2006 video game developed by Team17 and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. It is a remake of the original ''Lemmings'' released in 1991. The game has been released in slightly different versions for PlayStation Portable, PlayStation 2, and PlayStation 3. Gameplay The PSP version featured all 120 levels from the original game, 36 brand new levels as well as expansion pack support, and a user level editor. Every level in the game was a pre-rendered 3D landscape, although their gameplay was still 2D and remains faithful to the original game. User levels could be constructed from pre-rendered objects and distributed by uploading them to a PlayStation-specific ''Lemmings'' online community. In October 2006 the game was ported by developer Rusty Nutz for the PlayStation 2 with use of the EyeToy. While being recorded by the EyeToy, players stretch and move their limbs to aid the lemmings. In 2007, Team17 produced a similar remake of ''Lemmings'' for the PlaySta ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
