Tetris: then and now...

Before: This game was just played in a handheld console fashion. It was called Brick Game back then.

Now: Tetris has now invaded our consciousness. Through the social networking site Facebook, it hit the internet world by storm.

Before: The objective of the game is to manipulate these blocks by moving each one sideways and rotating it by 90 degree units, with the aim of creating a horizontal line of ten blocks without gaps. When such a line is created, it disappears, and any block above the deleted line will fall. When a certain number of lines are cleared, the game enters a new level. As the game progresses, each level causes the blocks to fall faster, and the game ends when the stack of blocks reach the top of the playing field and no new Tetriminos are able to enter. Some games also end after a finite number of levels or lines.

Now: aside from the same objectives as above, the unique thing about this new tetris is that you can play it with your friends or with some people who wanted to defeat you with this game. Being in a multiplayer set-up,  you can not just play mano y mano with one-on-one set up, but you can do it with three of your friends, four of your friends and even five of your friends!

Even I can't decide what to choose.


The classic one, or the New one.


how about you?


you choose.
