questions on some classic remakes for ps1

[mas]

I was thinking about getting some of those classics remakes of asteroids, galaga, space invaders and other for the ps1. I have credit at my local game store and they have asteroids and space invaders. Has anyone played any of these games? How are they? Is there a list for me to know what "retro" remakes are out there?
Thanks very much

I played the Centipede and Galaga remakes. Neither of them are good, although they're not insufferable. Don't pay more than a few dollars max for them.

Are these the Hasbro remakes? Most were meh, I do like Asteroids though. If you see Galaxian 3 in the pile snag it. A crappy game but an interesting footnote in history. Its based on the mini theater sized arcade.

I would hit the Arcade compilations, the PS1 versions has a wide range of settings options not found on later releases. DIP Switches and even programing player 2 stick to operate player one as a co-op or duel stick game.

Yeah they were the ones i'm talking about. I know ps1 has plenty of the actual classics but I saw the back to asteroids and i thought it was a new look to the game and hopefully it has the classic feel still to the game.
I found this so far,
asteroids
frogger
missle command
galaga
space invaders
pong
centipede

I liked Asteroids, Frogger and Space Invaders a lot as a kid. Frogger is probably the best of the bunch.

Frogger's the only one I tried; it's definitely good, but only pay single digits for it.

I can't imagine any of them are particularly rare or sought-after. Maybe Tempest 2000 and Xevious 3D.

GOOD GOD! Leave now and get it!

The gameplay and music is killer, be sure to have the TV hooked up to an external amp and speakers.

I had a panic attack. Try to hunt for Tempest X, a remake done very well. Since it is a Pre-Duel Shock game, an Arcade stick works beautiful!

There is the PC Freeware Typhoon 2001 to give you a taste.
