    Default Your Most-Liked Tetris Game(s)

    There are a lot of Tetris games out there, both official and unofficial. However, each one is unique in its own way. Some are more aesthetically pleasing. Others have excellent music. A few have tons of modes. Most have at least one multiplayer mode. Others have much content or even, dare I suggest it, un-lockables?

    That said, what are your favorite games of Tetris?

    While it doesn't play as well as the others (no shifting between drop speeds) I really like the CD-i version for its backgrounds and music. It's one of the only few CD-i titles I like.

    I'm a collector, but only to a certain extent.
    Not as extreme as Rickstilwell though.[/quote]

    I probably played the original Game Boy version more than any other, but I'd say the one I had the most fun with was probably Tetris Blast, also on the original Game Boy.

    Tetris on the Nintendo 64. It was always a giddy feeling of making a "happy box" square piece and hearing the balloon like squeezing sound the game made when the box was formed.

    I mostly played the Gameboy or NES Nintendo Tetris versions so really either of them. I haven't played enough other versions to really say if I'd prefer anything else even more.

    As for a bare bones version of Tetris, the original Gameboy version is always a solid choice and one of my favourite "basic" versions.

    Tetris DS however is the best version I have ever played. The way all the Nintendo properties are worked into the game is fantastic and all the different original modes are absolutely brilliant.
    If a god is willing to prevent evil, but not able, then he is not omnipotent. If he is able, but not willing, then he must be malevolent. If he is both willing and able, then why is there evil? If he is neither able or willing then why call him a god?

    Tetris DS is pretty neat indeed, but it's way too easy to "marathon".

    I think NES Tetris was the last one I played. I appreciate why it's still a favorite for competitions despite the existence of hardcore things like Tetris The Grand Master. There's a narrow window in which you can punch up your score before the pieces start falling too quickly to manipulate.

    The New Tetris, to be precise. I thought the squares were a pretty neat twist on the classic Tetris gameplay. Apparently in some versions (like Tetris Worlds) it is called "square Tetris".
