Tetris (Game Boy, 1989)

What you do in the game

In this game you design your own character at the start and play through the game as him, even though your character wasn't in the movie you still play major parts from it.

Note: You really need to have seen the film to understand the game.

Graphics The graphics in this game are really good (not including cutscenes as the graphics are usually good on them) life-like people walk the streets and each individual person even has their own name. Weapons also have good graphics. Main characters in the game have extra, detailed features and look even better than civillians. Each city has good graphics like the buildings etc. Though shops are heavily recycled. You will get used to it. The cars graphics aren't really good as you can't see through the windows. They have a cartoonish look to them. The cars are the thing in the game that stopped me giving the graphics 10 points in this review.

Gameplay

The gameplay is quite good, though not the best, the best thing is extorting shopkeepers and forcing them to give you protection money, thats if they don't give you it when you ask them nicely at the start, Sometimes you can push shopkeepers past their limit when extorting them and they will fight back hard. The freestyle fighting is cool at the start but gets boring when you have played the game long enough. The special gun moves are the same with the freestyle fighting, fun at the start then boring. Also the game is to easy, there isn't really a hard mission in the game. The cars are also a major problem, they actually are like a 1940's car, too slow can't turn properly etc. br />

Note: To change your characters clothes you have to gain money save the game, load it and then select ' Go to the tailor shop' .

The game is compaired to GTA, but that isn't really true, the only thing the games have in common is the map at the bottom right of the screen and the fact the the triangle button gets you in a car. I bought the game for £29.99 which is about $49.99, $59..99 in the US , I'm not sure bu It's not worth that, I think it's only worth about £20.00 which it is at a games shop near me at the moment. This game definetly isn't for everyone, I mean I love free roaming, random killing games but this game didn't give me a thrill, so you should definetly rent it first. But, I suppose it's still a good game for some.

I bought the game for a teen age youngster I know. The game arrived perfectly and I sent it along. It makes me feel good to be able to make someone happy.

Tetris bring me back shivers. I used to play this game a lot. One of the best classic games i like. Actually this was the first game i ever bought for my gameboy. I beat all the levels and on B mode. My highest level playing on A mode was level 24. Can anyone beat that?

I like this game because the items that come down, at first, fall slowly so at least I have a chance to make some lines before it starts going faster. You have to decide where you are going to fit them in to complete a line to score points.When you make a complete line it disappears.You want to keep the line low so you have a chance to turn the items around in order to make a line. As it changes to the next level the item falling comes down fast so it becomes a challenge to turn the item and fit it in to make the line complete so the line will diappear, keeping it low enough to allow the next item to come down. It is hard when you don't get the shape you need to complete a line and they just fall on top of eachother causing it to build up close to the top.If the items can't fall down because it is too high up, then the game ends. This is the only game that I love to play. It is habit forming though. It is so fun

Great for those who don't want to race or shoot anything. Very straight forward and easy to play, take out four lines at a time and receive the highest score. When you reach 100,000 points you set off a rocket launch as your reward.

the transaction went well but that was about 6 weeks ago and I emailed twice for the person to leave me a positive feedback and did not answer my email nor did they leave feed back.
I no my feed back is good.

shelly

I've purchased several game boy games on e-bay. I wanted tetris and couldn't find it in stores any longer and found several on e-bay. Make sure you read all the information carefully. I've never really had a bad experience because most sellers are pretty straight forward about the condition of their items, what's included, and have good pictures. If you have any questions, ask the seller. Use the postage calculators when available because sometimes you can spend a little more so you're not outbid when you have a good idea of postage. If you're new, bid low and get a feel for the whole process. It's fun and you can get some great bargains.

Um...you are supposed to review the game, not how long your order takes or if you get it. And the game is great, I mean its Tetris!!!

this seller is fantastic great communication fast shipping well packaged good looking product looked as described

I can't really rate the game. I thought it worked fro
the SP version, but it doesn't. It plugs in but I guess too
old of a game. I'm sure it would be fantastic fun if it
would work.

The Nintendo Tetris (Game Boy) DS game is lots of fun. It was also offered at a good price. I could not have made a better buy.

I've played many, MANY versions of and variations on Tetris over the years. I finally got around to replacing the Game Boy cartridge I'd lost so long ago. I should have just done that in the first place. This game is perfection. Buy a copy, you'll not regret it. :)

The service I received when purchasing this game was quick and reliable. I had no problems communicating with the seller and the product was exactly the same as presented in its description.

Thanks!

I bought this game ~2 weeks ago and I love it. It is a great classic game that anyone should buy. It is in great condition. The only problem I had is that it stopped at level six, the screen went blank. Not all Tetris games do this but I still play it because it is so much fun.
In the game you have blocks that fall down in different shapes and you have to match them together so that you makes lines which will disappear to get points.
This is still one of the best games out there.

i very like the tetris game and shipping faster than i think thank you for the games. the games have been cheaper than the game i buy at store and have more game to be choose than the store

Hard to top the original with the theme song. Always been a fan of Tetris, only game I can play for hours and not get bored. Gameplay is simple make lines. I remember when I got my original gameboy had to go on just with Tetris for a while which then I got hooked ever since. My only dislikes with the game is the fact that high scores dont get saved but I got Tetris Plus also. I bought this to play on my Snes with the supergameboy adapter.

The game came on time in good quality on its outer appearence. I Have not played it or used the game yet because I do not have the game system yet. It will be in next week.

its a great game requiring a lot of coordination. great tool for the aging mind plus the music is pretty catchy and soothing.

It is a Classic All Time Great game. An Oldie but Goodie. It all started with this game. The Gameboy revolution begins. This game and handheld opened the doors for todays PSP, DS, and others. The first is always the best

I LOVE THIS GAME. IT IS SO FUN AND BRINGS ME BACK TO OLD SCHOOL DAYS! THE GAME WAS SENT FAST AND SECURE. IT LOOKED BRAND NEW!!! I AM VERY HAPPY WITH MY PURCHASE AND I WOULD ORDER FROM HIM AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I appreciated the fast service and what you discribed was exactly what I got and exactly what I wanted. It was in great shape. Thank you.

Tetris is one of the best simple puzzle games in existence. With easy to use controls and quick game play it is the perfect game for anybody who wants to give their brain a workout but doesn't have a lot of time. To top it off, the music is some of the most addictive there is.

Super fast!
I ordered it and payed, and they shipped perfectly. Got it in three days!
Couldnt ask for better!
