    The only notable absence here is a multiplayer mode, but then Tetris always worked better as a lonely, consuming experience. At £3.99 this is one of the more expensive releases in the Minis range, but considering what you actually get, this still represents excellent value for money.

    This is a restrained and worthy modern update that keeps the essentials clutter-free.

    Tetris is and always has been fun, but when we've played it this many times and have so many avenues to get it for free, you have to scratch your head at the decision to sell this one for $10. I like this PSP version of Tetris, but it's not really reinventing the franchise or anything.

    Extremely addictive it may be, but it doesn’t move the game on in terms of originality or push the limits of what can be achieved with PSP Minis, instead, Tetris just plays safe.

    I can not imagine how it is possible to manage to mess up this simple game, but the creators have succeeded.

During the time of this game, I always found poor-quality games from Electronic Arts, and I find until now. These games represent a really ticky-tacky, shabby and terrible crafts by talentless freaks obsessed with money.… Expand
