Tempest X3
SCORE: 63
Tempest X3 is one of those original
Playstation games that has some good going for it and some things that
could have been better. We play Tempest X3 in Tempest, Tempest Duel, or
Traditional. There are ninety-nine levels in Tempest X3. The graphics
can get wild in some of them too.
Did you enjoy the gameplay video I did of Tempest X3 on the original
Playstation? If you missed it please go here immediately. This game from
1996 is shown quite well. I also learned a strategy in how to play
Tempest X3 on the original Playstation. I held the D-pad on direction
and shot. My guy went around the structure and usually tagged the
enemies coming up the pipeline. It was not perfect since I did
eventually lose.
The controls in Tempest X3 are touchy. I had all kinds of issues
properly targeting before I figured out an insane strategy (mentioned in
the previous paragraph) to survive. There are different shapes and
structures in Tempest X3. That is something that makes Tempest X3
interesting to me personally. I loved seeing the different shapes. The
power ups were generally helpful in Tempest X3 as well. I loved
collecting them after shooting enemies.
The issues families can have with Tempest X3 is the violent content. We
are blowing away something. I am not sure what they are. I am also not
sure why we are blowing them away. Two family members can play Tempest
X3 on the original Playstation at the same time. If you can handle the
controls then you might enjoy Tempest X3. This is not a game I plan on
going back to anytime soon unless I am being paid to play it.
