The new tetris is a good mind game in my point of view. YOU have to know where to put the shapes at fast enough to continue playing. Another thing I like about it is you can dump garbage on your apponent if you are playing with someone. I do not own this game, cause I cannot find it any where i rent it from the video store every time it is in. This is a really cool game.

If you like Tetris, you will like this new version.
First the good stuff:
The multiplayer option for up to four friends is excellent, if you can get four people together who like to play. There are two new game modes which make the game more fun. On top of the classic get as many lines as possible, you have a race to a certain number of lines and most lines in a set amount of time. Stats are kept historically for each player, another plus, although I haven't figured out the inane way it ranks players.
There's new ways of getting additional lines. You are able to form a 4X4 large box out of 4 pieces. Forming a box with the same piece yields a gold box and high bonus, forming it out of different pieces yields a silver box and less bonus. Excellent idea.
Now the downside:
Playing alone gets old quickly. The computer AI is pitiful at best. I EASILY mastered beating the computer at the highest level in all three different games. In fact I have yet to lose to the computer.
Probably the most annoying thing about this game is the pathetic interface. First the controller. The controls are preset, and unchangeable. You push left and right to move the piece, down to speed it up, and up to force it down immediately. This leads to obvious problems where the piece is suddenly at the bottom when you meant to move it to the right or left. It boggles my mind that as many buttons are on the controller, and as far as gaming has come, that the idiots who wrote this game couldn't allow you to change the control settings. Second, the game start. When a game ends, you lose all your game settings. For example, when I play with another person we have to select our account and what game we want to play AFTER EACH GAME! There's no memory of what we did before. It's almost as if the morons who wrote the game NEVER PLAYED IT!
All in all, I like the game, and will get over the flaws. I may have to buy more joypads and disable the 'UP' direction :)

I really enjoy this game....er...ONLY when I can actually get a hold of the N64, which may I remind you is almost impossible with my mother around. I don't own the game, but we rent it as much as possible considering that we can't find it anywhere in this town. The graphics are great, and the music really gets me going....

I do not own this game but my frind does and she let me borrow it. As soon as I started playing it I was addicted, and it wasn't just the game itself that had me hooked. The game has different settings like ancient Rome or Egypt or Japan and has lots of exoctic-sounding music that at the same time has a techno sound. Although the basic play is still the same there are some changes. You can see up to four future pieces and can put pieces on hold or switch pieces in play with those on hold. You can also create gold and silver blocks which each creates a higher line value for each line. (If you create a line with the gold, that line will have a value of 25 lines) There is also a new objective for creating lines; when you have earned a certain number of lines, a wonder is created. One is Mayan, one is Japanese, one is Egyptian,one is Russian and there are many more. You can also play marathon, where you just keep building lines, you can play sprint, where you create as many lines as you can in three minutes, or you can play ultra, where you play until you reach 150 lines. You can also have multi-player play and challenge the computer or up to three of your friends. Also, you achieve rank by the number of lines you create each minute. If you like the original tetris at all I can almost guarantee you will love this new version. But I highly suggest you play it late at night, for some reason fatigue seemed to increase my friend's and my skill. (?) Hope that helped! *^_^*
