A few months ago, my family got a little hand-held Tetris game. Everyone in my family is a genuine Tetris adict. Now, we all play the mode where you try to get as many lines as possible in two minutes. They get 23-27 lines. I can now get 41 lines...

Two questions:
1) Is that really absurdly high, or is my family just not as freaky at Tetris as me?
2) Does anyone know a computer version of Tetris that has the two minute mode? I want to see if I'm better than the board peoples.

1) probably the latter
2) you may have better chances getting someone to write a tetris clone for you than finding a multiplayer one with a two minute mode...

X will have fun with this thread.

I'm decent but...I know I can still get my ass knocked around...it's definitely not the same thing as Tetris Attack...and even then there are the opponents out there that are tougher...

...like...world record holders...but he's a different story.

My exgf got over 1,000,000 on my Tetris DX not once, not twice, but THREE times. The highest I could ever get was slightly higher than 600,000

On the NES Tetris, the highest I got was 90-something lines total...after that point, the blocks just come down too fast.

Used to play Tetris, when I was really young. Got tired and bored of it, mostly.

I played it a few weeks ago at the arcdae, read above, and then I stopped playing and went on to something different.

Maybe it was, because at the time, my mother and older people were playing the game. *shurgs*

My parents can play tetris and tetris like games for hours...

Heh, my dad did borrow my old GB (which I don't use anyway) just for playing Dr. Mario and Tetris plus.

I prefer other puzzle games like Puyo Puyo or Panel de pon/tetris attack thought.

My mom would play it when I was younger, since I never knew how (being only 4 years old at the time) I should se ehow I fare at it now that my skills have...improved, to say the least

*tries the 2 minute rush in Nintendo Tetris*

1st try: 35 lines, score 23100 (Level 9)
2nd try: 38 lines, score 19061
3rd try: 39 lines, score 19350
4th try: 38 lines, score 32850 (Level 15)
5th try: 40 lines, score 30590
6th try: 44 lines, score 75471 (Level 18, scored 2 Tetrises )

41 is good, but definitely beatable

But I used to be even better at Tetris, way back around 1990 when it was still fairly new ... my mother played it a lot too

We only had Nintendo Tetris (on NES), but also played Tengen Tetris before it ...


I also remade Tetris in QBasic in 1997, then in Pascal later that year, it's not that hard to code

Ace; I still have that game XD (*Tetris QB)


And that's not even my best... we're talking 800++ liens... hehe.

Later tonight I'll try Ultra mode... 3m time limit.

And in the NES Tetris [not the crappy TENGEN version, the real Nintendo one [FROM RUSSIA WITH FUN ]] I got 200+ lines (201 max I think) with 490000 or so... hehe...

And in Marathon I was interrupted by SOMEONE [glares at dad]...

My Record in Tetris DX is 1131 Lines with over 1'000'000 Points, but it was a one time experience. Now I'm usually at 250 Lines, but when I breake the 300 barrier, it's no problem anymore.

Need to play more Tetris DX.. but Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Picchi Pichi Pichi Picchotti Live Start doesn't want to let go.

I think the farthest I ever got in Nintendo Tetris was around 215 lines (Level 21 anyway), while my mother once got around 220 ... but I also managed to get 70-80 lines once, starting from Level 19

Also, if someone is ever good enough to get all the way to Level 29, a nice surprise awaits there ... the block speed doubles once more to make the game nearly impossible, as I found out one day while playing the game slowed down


I liked Tengen Tetris, maybe because of its 2-player mode ... My best in it was 805 lines, did about 300 in the last level (17) alone ... and one thing I noticed in that game (when cheating to get over 1000 lines) is that the score resets to 100000 after 1 million

I like plain Tetris.

As a matter of fact, back in 1996, I had received an Original Gameboy that was bundled with Tetris, I didn't know what it was at first, but as I kept on playing it, I managed to overcome lvl 9 - 5 in type B, and I only made it up to lvl 15 in type A.

I still have the two lying around somewhere, but I really haven't touched it in years.

Tetris Attack is no Tetris (Just a word to sell it better), it is called Panel de Pon, and is a great game.

Not to go off topic or anything, but that 1131 I bolded used to be my old user ID way before I became 1738 at the old board, then 124 here when the board restarts here.

I just found my old Original Gameboy and Tetris game for it, and I still do just as good as I used to, I'm going to attempt to beat lvl 15 on type A later on.
