 I was hoping for some sort of improvement. August 25, 2004

"Tetrisphere" came out for the Nintendo 64 back in 1997. In my mind, it is still the gold standard for Tetris games. H2O tinkered with the extremely addictive puzzle game and took a big chance with it. The developers made the game 3D and risked alienating a lot of video game enthusiasts by tampering with a proven formula. Instead, the title was a big success and showed that a popular game can be dramatically changed without losing any of its fun factor.
With that said...this game plays it too safe and is only fun for a few hours. Three of the Tetris variations included have already been seen before and the other three variations are nothing to get excited about. THQ's big contribution to the world of Tetris was their attempt to have a Story Mode. The Minos' sun is going to "go nova" and it's up to you to save their civilization by using Tetrions to open gateways to other worlds. Oooohhhh...how enthralling!
What it all comes down to is this: the player plays six different versions of Tetris. They have to achieve Rank 11 in each of the Tetris games. That's it. There is an opening and closing FMV and that is the whole story. What's the point of that? Yeah...I don't know either.
It goes without saying that the only people who should have bought this game are those who absolutely, positively needed a Tetris game for their Xbox. Otherwise, please be patient and see if a developer out there actually has the courage to revamp the Tetris platform and come out with another winner like "Tetrisphere".

Why would you want a tetris game for Xbox when you can play it on NES or download it for free? Nothing wil beat the gameboy vers.

I HATE THIS GAME WHY DID THEY MAKE THIS GAME WHY!THEY PLAY TO MUCH MUSIC FOR SUCH A BORING GAME!THE BACKGROUND IS COOL FOR SUCH A DUMB GAME!WHO WANTS TO SAVE THEM NOT ME!PLEASE DONT WASTE YOUR BUCKS ON THIS GAME; THIS GAME SHOULD BE FREE!
 NOT IMPRESSED! But this game came free with our xbox October 22, 2004

I was really excited when I purchased our xbox to see that Tetris was one of the free games that came with our system. This was the first game I played on the xbox and I was not impressed. I have played tetris on just about every console that made this game. I always liked it and loved to play Tetris. My expectations of this game was the graphics would be great and it would have lots of new things added to it....wrong! The game is very hard to see, they have a tiny screen for the game play and a background on the sides- why??? If they would have made this game full screen I might have given it a better review. I have a 36' tv and I can hardly see to play this game! My husband also complained about this. Not a good choice, but it was free, so who can complain too much?
I bought this used and still not worth it November 23, 2005
This game is super lame. I played it for all of 5 minutes and then put it in its case and haven't looked at it since. It's really boring, and the levels suck. It's just tetris, there's nothing more, and it's really easy and boring. I bought it for 1/3 of the price listed on amazon and I still hate it. Go with something else.
