Vocals might get old, but I could totally play tetris to that tune.

I'd echo lilshawn. This is where you find out how much you suck at Tetris. Well, made it to rank 3 after several games (got close to 2) and I think I won't be getting much past that.

Rankings so far:

Ex_mosquito - GM - 11:34:53
yamatetsu - S1 - 4:27:18
epetti - 3 - 3:37:00

pbj: Guess you won't answer my question, I give up.

With only one more line clear to reach level 200 (you need a line clear to go from level x99 to the next section), the gravity would have decreased to almost nothing for a while, giving you time to recover and to reach rank 2. If you keep going at it, you will make it, no doubt.

Thanks for the tip. I assumed it just kept getting faster. So where's your score? I'm guessing it'll be pretty up there.

Same here. After being told I couldn't possibly be playing this game on my Xbox, I posted a pic of the title screen and got an awful lot of *crickets*.

Boring crap. I'll be happy when this one is over. Whoever picked this title is bad and should feel bad.

Let's not mince words. tell him how you really feel, Jim.

Haha, I'm actually not that good, despite having played for quite a while and loving the game.

I got S4 a bunch of times, but not during this competition so far. I'm trying to get it again before I post my score.

So in the meantime, have a secret grade I got recently:

(You get that by making a > shape)

No idea why you are so hostile. I already admitted being wrong about you playing TGM ACE. I'm terribly sorry that I didn't know about Coinops. Anything else I can do to make you feel better and soothe your ego?

About this game being "boring crap": To each his own I guess. Some might enjoy a challenge, others might not. Rest assured that I don't feel bad in the slightest.

Can someone please confirm I am playing the right game? I got something like 298 lines.

Vigo · « **Reply #51 on:** February 18, 2015, 02:39:21 pm »

If you are playing the game you pictured, then no. The game is called Tetris: The Grand Master. You have Tetris: The Absolute Grand Master 2.

WakiMiko · « **Reply #52 on:** February 18, 2015, 02:39:39 pm »

The screenshots you posted are from the second game in the series, this thread is about the first.

pbj · « **Reply #53 on:** February 18, 2015, 03:06:09 pm »

Is Tetris: The Grand Master that one that isn't boring crap?

epetti · « **Reply #54 on:** February 18, 2015, 03:11:34 pm »

The title screen is the same picture that's at the top of this thread.

Got S5 in 6:56:98!

By the way, the TGM series has become quite popular on the internet recently, after it was played at the Awesome Games Done Quick 2015 charity marathon:
