It's a very social game. This isn't a game where you'll be talking crap back and forth, nor is it a game where you'll be taking commands from a squad leader. It's a social event/game which is a lot of fun.
The Xbox Live support is just the icing on a particularly tasty cake. So if you’re a Tetris fan, this is the version I recommend you check out – just remember my warnings when your dreams take a weird turn.
Highly addictive, partly because of the trance-like music, but mainly because it’s just so much fun. Even when it’s 3am and your eyes are bloodshot and your hand is permanently shaped like a wretched claw, you can’t help but say, “just one more time” when you finally lose.
No matter how many coats of polish they put on it, this is still the same game that's been around since Mikhail Gorbachev ruled the Soviet Union. [Oct/Nov 2003, p.87]
The new ways to play it are creative, but most of them aren’t different enough to make you feel like you’re playing a variety of modes.
Online play is good as far as lag is concerned but you'll have to have plenty of patience finding games. At the end of each game you're knocked back into the lounge where you have to search for another game.
Little more than an online update of a pretty dire Tetris update, Worlds simply isn't worth your cash, even if it's only 15 or 20 quid down the high street.

Summary Tetris is taking the next step on next-generation platforms. Tetris Worlds takes the simple, yet addictive puzzle gameplay of Tetris and spices it up with beautiful 3D graphics and six variations. In Story mode, you play each variation of Tetris Worlds until your Tetriminos hit the top of the screen. Test your Tetris ranks in Arcade mode...
