Tetris Contest
I was looking at some of the other free games available and realized that people may be more interested in Tetris than Pac-Man. Since I completely suck at Tetris (not as much as Risk, granted, but that doesn't really say much), it wasn't the foremost game on my mind when I was originally finding one to play.
HERE is a link to the online Tetris version to play. Like Pac-Man, use the arrow keys on your keyboard to control the movement of the game. Left and right arrows move the block in the respective directions, the up arrow key rotates the block, and the down arrow key drops the block into place. With one attempt, starting at level 1, my score (that you will all undoubtly scoff *L*) is 3,480.

Re: Tetris Contest
That looks like a fun site...but instead of a game I get an empty box with a red X of death to play with. Anyone else having problems??? I wanna hunt duckies!
EDIT: Ericka just told me it's working for her! Not fair! I'm at work, I WANNA PLAY TOO!!!! Last edited by Morning Star : 10-13-2004 at 06:50 AM. Reason: Update |

Re: Tetris Contest
Seems like you're missing a plugin - I think it's the Java one.

Re: Tetris Contest
I dare not click on that link...Tetris is like a drug for me, way too addicting. I used to have a keychain with a miniature Tetris game on it. One semester while I was in school, I spent my whole finals week playing that stupid game rather than studying.
Fortunately, I'd paid attention in class and did well on my finals. Finally, a friend "borrowed" that keychain for about two weeks and played it so much herself that she ran the battery down, and I could never figure out how to get into the thing to replace the battery. It got lost somewhere along the line, and I'm not looking for it. Too dangerous.![]()

In the end, I really think that travel forms of the game makes a person a walking donation center for other people to play Tetris. More friends played my watch than I ever did.
