Screw Meteos! Tetris DS reviewed!

Quote:
Even with the evolution, Tetris DS is still Tetris at heart, and this dual screen portable version is a fantastic continuation of the classic puzzle game. The small evolutionary changes may be a turn-off to the stubborn purists out there that just want Tetris left alone, but most of the changes work to the benefit of the original game's design. And you haven't lived until you've played ten player Tetris complete with rotation-freezing lightning bolts and piece-shifting banana peels flying between the systems. And the addition of internet play, while nothing new to PC Netris gamers, is a fantastic option, even if it's just a little minimalist in options. Once again, Tetris, you do handheld gamers proud.
9.0/10

I'll be getting this, along with Metroid.

Meteos rocks far too hard for IGNs comprehension. Oh well, this still looks great.

Will never better Meteos.

I'm DEFINATELY looking forward to this one though. I haven't played Tetris properly before and now, since I'm a "big" puzzle fan, seems a good time to try it!

Tetris (the original anyway) is simpler, so more people wouldn't be afraid to try it for the first time, my mom used to play it all the time on GB and I don't think she ever played much if any video games before then (now it's mostly puzzle games online). It's also a classic, while Meteos isn't. I get the feeling Meteos won't keep the popularity over time as Tetris has.
