So has anyone else tried out that new Tetris by EA on PSN? I ended up downloading it yesterday and playing for over an hour and a half. What sold me were the remixes of the original music which I haven't had in any Tetris I've bought since the original Gameboy Tetris. It's still "broken Tetris" but that's just something I realize I have to live with.
I tried all the different modes, some I can see revisiting and others like "treadmill" and "split" have a learning curve I'm not sure I feel like going through. But the online support and ranking level up system will probably keep me hooked for a long time. I just wish that "next piece" window was at the bottom of the screen instead of the top. I don't know about anyone else, but my eyes are on the bottom all the time. Also, getting to 4-player online battle mode, the windows get kind of squinty small even on a large TV.
The presentation looks very slick and I like the sound effects and the Playstation controller feels a lot better in the hands for extended periods of time than the DS so sufficient to say I'm hooked!
