Earlier on, I was lying on my bed, gameboy in hand, awaiting for my brother to get off the pc. For a change, I put in Tetris and happily played away for about an hour.

"Hey, you can use the pc if you want now..."
"Nah, I'm alright..."

Talk about addictive. This is the way games should be.

Yes Tetris is simple and in many games simplicity is the way to a good game, I still fire up Rampage (PS1) every so often and play it round one of mates houses.

However in this day and age playing Tetris for an hour is extreme boredom. It's fun for a bit but then it gets too repititive

I play it for a couple of days, then stop playing it. Then, a few months later I pick it up and continue.

Wash, lather and rinse.

Best compared to 'Slip, Rip, Brush ... ah!'

However Tetris is really a very overrated game. The story of its creation was infintely more interesting than the game itself

gr13ve, you're right

Pong does pwn, especially the new-er version that they brought out on to the PS1 a few years back.

I remember playing it over my friends house, it was stupidly addictive and ruddy bloody good fun (you know you love that word combo)

Coupled with South Park : Chefs' Luv Shack it was an amazing party game suited for sleepovers. Good times, for which I weep

Tetris is just one of those games that everyone has, and when you play it, even if it is once a year, you enjoy it. Sort of like Mario on the SNES
