Tetris Worlds
Review by Critic Man
"Games that were originally for the Gameboy, should stay on the Gameboy."
Being that this is one of the games that came with the Xbox value pack, this game could have very well been Xbox's fall. This is an arcade game. It shouldn't be one of those games with really good graphics and high tech visual affects. IT'S TETRIS!!! It's better off staying on the Gameboy as an arcade game.
WOW!! The guys who made this gave it a story. Once again, IT'S TETRIS!!! Oh, and by the way, it's a really bad story too. "You have to play tetris and do good to save the galaxy." That's about it. Of course when you do good, nothing happens. The story is just a random old plot that's really just there. You can never beat this game, since your only goal is to get a high score. Of course, it's an arcade game and that's the way arcade games are supposed to be, but sadly, they had to give it a pointless story. Tetris was cool, when it originally came out on the Gameboy. But Why? Why did they have to ruin it?
Playing this game is the biggest waste of time you could ever experience. I mean, who on Earth plays it. There is absolutely no one on line. And I stopped playing it a week after I got it because, I realized I was being such a fool by playing it. The fun factor is so low. This game is so incredibly boring. Honestly, I think when they made this game, they tried too hard. It's not addicting like they say. I would even say, there is a little too much hype for this game.
The game's only strength would be the graphics. They are pretty cool. But who needs graphics on an arcade game. You don't really see the good graphics really well. They are only in the backgrounds. I mean, what else are you gonna make smooth, the blocks? THIS IS TETRIS!!!!! GOD! I think they worked a little bit too hard on the graphics and everything else I just insulted. An arcade game needs to be fun and addicting. Tetris Worlds accomplishes neither.
SCORES
Story- 1/10
Graphics- X/10-who needs them in a game like this?
Gameplay- 2/10
Fun Factor- 2/10
OVERALL-2/10-If they thought that this was an improvement on tetris, they were wrong.
BUY, RENT, OR NEITHER: Don't bother doing anything. You better off pushing this game aside. It's not worth it. You would regret even renting it. Oh God, what a waste of money this game is. If you already have it, or even rented it, then I don't know what to say. If you bought the Xbox value pack, and you still have this game, I don't care is Star Wars was on the same disk, just return it and get your money back.
