anybody who knows me, knows that i love tetris…so here is the latest and greatest news on the best game ever!

yesterday, slashdot linked to “bastard tetris“…you know how you always thought that tetris was against you and never gave you the pieces you wanted? well, this version really is against you…it has an algorithm for determining the worst possible piece to give you at any particular time and it does! yikes!

…and BONUS tetris news! in the comments, someone posted a link to perhaps the biggest innovation in tetris in the last 15 years! 1d tetris!

*sarcasm on* i think it is perhaps the best game ever! *sarcasm off*
