The Tetris Effect announced



PlayStation is hosting a livestream full of mini-announcements as they prepare for next week's major reveals at E3. One of which is a new PS4 exclusive created by the makers of Rez Infinite and Lumines. Named after the actual "Tetris Effect", the game takes its cue from the phenomenon where players continue to see images long after rounds of playing games. There's over 30 levels to play, and the game will support PSVR and will have a graphical increase on PS4 Pro hardware.

Well, I was about to mock Sony for releasing yet another Tetris game, but that trailer was pretty great. Definitely brought Lumines to mind immediately.

it looks like it was designed by a scene girl with a skrillex haircut
Lol, true. Though that was the case for Rez and Lumines too. Just add drugs for a cheap stay-at-home solo rave.

IMO this game looks fantastic and it's currently one of the upcoming games I'm most excited for. I love Tetris and Lumines but I suck at the latter - if it's Tetris gameplay, I'll probably be able to see all the levels at least.

Pretty soon they'll have an Tetris anime or movie starring Tet. The hero we didn't deserve.
Puyo Puyo Tetris is pretty close already.

YOU'RE LATE!
Also, this is one of the most beautiful and symbolic trailers for a video game I ever saw.
If it only wasn't a PS4 exclusive, I would own it :(

I enjoy classic Tetris more than most of these spin-off's, but this trailer was pretty awesome. Mixing the classic Tetris gameplay with rhythm type gameplay may make for a cool experience, especially in VR. Be sure to take your psychedelics before-hand!!

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    You should update the 360 to newest dash before RGHing it yes. But not a big deal if you don't, you can install new dash/avatar updates after. It's just easier to do it auto online before, instead manual offline after.

    @BigOnYa I wanted to ask you about your experience with seeing south park. Most of the people a bit younger like my younger brother and cousins that are a few younger than me that saw kids found south park funny because of the curse words, kids at school, that seemed like liking the show on a very basic level.

    I could not quite have a in depth discussion of the show.

    How was it for you? As an adult. What did you find the most interesting part about it. Did you relate to the parents of the kids and their situations. Was it satires, the commentary on society. The references on celebrities' and pop culture.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I remember seeing the very first episode back in the day, and have watched every episode since. I used to set my VCR to record them even, shows how long ago.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just like any comedies really, and cartoons have always been a favorite of mine. Family guy, American Dad, Futurama, Cleveland Show, Simpsons - I like them all.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    South Park is great cause they always touch on relavent issues going on today, and make something funny out of it.

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa were you always up to date on the current events and issues of the time or were there issues that you first found out thru south park
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Most of the time yea I knew, I watch and read the news regularly, but sometimes the Hollywood BS stuff, like concerning actors slip by me. I don't follow most Hollywood BS (example: the Kardasians)

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa there were relevant issues before south park was made, that's why i think a south park prequel/spinoff would be great. Randy and his friends in their child hood

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, like them running in high school together, getting into stuff, and how they got hitched and had kids. And how the town of South Park was back then compared to now. That would be cool to see.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @salazarcosplay if they made a prequel, it would still be about current issues, cause it doesn't make sense to make it about stuff that happened 30 years ago that nobody cares about anymore
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's too late
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the older south park episodes about particular issues usually age poorly since the topic is no longer relevant
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    an exception is giant douche vs turd sandwich, that's always relevant :P
