Re: GB Tetris
Mine is 180
Zim has 212.
(For anyone that's wondering - in IRC we've been playing Tetris GB for about 2 months. Scores are only valid from a Game Boy, Game Boy Pocket, Game Boy Light and an original Tetris cart. Feel free to use a GBC or GBA with the cart, but the game plays faster )

Re: GB Tetris
Rumbled. Feel free to delete my score/posts as I've never actually owned a Gameboy.

From memory. Used to always max out around 130 or so but I played a stormer one day and achieved that. I'd say it took me 10 years of practice as a conservative estimate.

Re: GB Tetris
167 (lines) - 167956 (high score)
I've done better than this on other occasions, but for this run it was the best I've gotten in a while.
PS - Using a GBA SP "With new brighter screen!" and original beat up copy of Tetris for the GB.

Re: GB Tetris
230 - Ive always remembered that.
I had to play cross handed the last few levels so I could sieze up my right hand to quickly tap left and right fast enough (holding a direction is too slow). I always thought level 23 was humanly impossible to pass. Well done invzim!

Re: GB Tetris
I actually fancy digging out my gameboy for a new challenge now. The day I got 230 was the day I finally retired from those long tetris games on the toilet.

Re: GB Tetris
I should pick this up again and school you all . I once got into a car, played one game for 3 and a half hours, and didn't lose by the time I had to get out of the car. Something like 500 lines. shame to give that game up.

Re: GB Tetris
Are you sure your talking about original tetris? Most of the other varients are a lot easier. For example, gbc tetris would pause while you move the shape (you could even get the shapes to roll back up if you shoved them into a wall!), meaning there was no need to ever die. BIG flaw actually because, as you say, most games would end due to boredom.dieKatze88 wrote:I should pick this up again and school you all .

A lot of other tetris games, no matter what level your on, either allow you to slide or roll the shape when it lands but before it 'locks' or they have a 1 second pause before the drop, allowing you to position it comfortably before it flies down - another big flaw.
In short: I don't believe you

Re: GB Tetris
Yes the original. I've gotten up to about 250 on TGM. The easier variants I can do farther on, but I'm really really good at puzzle games. I'm currently trying to get the world record speed to 6-9s in Panel de Pon DS.pubjoe wrote:Are you sure your talking about original tetris? Most of the other varients are a lot easier.

I start college today, but as soon as I have a day off, I'll play some tetris and put together a video or at least some pictures.John James Pacinelli wrote:We are gonna need some references son.
I do have some decent time attacks for Panel de Pon DS on my youtube channel (same username as here)
