The processing power of the PS3 takes the classic game to a new dimension, from detailed environments to richer animation. Danger is only a step away for the little green-haired beings, so it's up to you to guide them through all-new puzzling levels of digging, climbing, bashing and building. With new features like teleporters and cloning machines for fiendish puzzle possibilities, collectible abilities adding a whole new layer of depth, dynamically-lit levels for heightened tension, and find-your-way-in-the-dark play, there's more challenge than ever before. Only you can save the Lemmings, so what are you waiting for? Global Online Rankings enable gamers to check their rank versus the world. [SCEA]… Expand

    A careful and luscious conversion from the PSP, Lemmings does little to warrant derision. [Issue #151, p.67]

    The concept of guiding your suicidal buddies through obstacle-laden levels has aged a bit, but it's still compelling, especially when you have to multi-task like mad. [Apr 2007, p.61]

    What is truly disappointing, though, is not the end of nuclear warfare in puzzle games, but the fairly heavy graphical reworking that Lemmings has become victim to. Good graphics don't make good games; so bad graphics shouldn't necessarily make bad games. But what defined the success of the original Lemmings was the enormously irresistible character your tiny sprites projected.

    It's just a little annoying to know that SCEE and Team 17 are holding back on us, that this game could have been so much more.

    To dig up this old fossil may even be considered insulting when we are now firmly in the world of next-gen gaming. [May 2007, p.67]

    It's very old-fashioned, very familiar and very frustrating - much like it ever was, then - but at least you can still enjoy blowing up all the lemmings for fun. [May 2007, p.76]

    Lemmings has been fully restored to modern times. One more time boys. It's worth it. It also challenges older audience to think about Lemmings has been fully restored to modern times. One more time boys. It's worth it. It also challenges older audience to think about how to guide all those awfully cute lemmings back to home. For younger people it might be bit hard to play but small changes in game mechanics make it easier to solve some really nasty challenges.… Expand
