In the age of Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto, Forza 3, and Final Fantasy, who in their right mind would want to spend any time on Tetris? I can see it as a good time killer for 5-10 minutes and that’s about it as the deep story plots and other “free roaming” games have pampered us with countless hours of gameplay.
Some still prefer the classics however. Possibly aiming to catch that older gaming market, DISH Network is beginning to roll out a new “game channel” that is quite literal in the name. Tetris TV is a channel exclusive to DISH Network viewers that allows you to play the old classic on your TV with nothing but your TV remote (that’s creative).
Anyone on any package has access to Tetris TV as long as they’re comfortable shelling out an extra $2.99/month. Think it’s worth it? Now that my eyes have been opened, there are a few other games I’d like to see pumped through such services — Duck Hunt anyone?
