I've always loved Tetris and probably always will. The only 'puzzle' type game that has ever kept me entertained. This game is a pretty good deal for 500 points (5$). Local Play, you can chat using the microphone between games. I don't see the point of that because if you are LOCAL, you are NEXT TO EACH OTHER. So that makes no sense... A cool addition was put in, but It's completely useless. The online play is really good, considering were even getting all this for 5 bucks. Instead of grabbing a Tetris from the shelves, go ahead and pick this one up, guys.
