I think it is. I've always been a tetris addict since the original gameboy and still can't get enough of it to this game. I even downloaded it to my phone. (Don't leave home with out it ) Tetris DS has more games to choose from - 'Push' is great, and the mario background is awesome. I even went to bed the other week with the theme tune in my head with visions of shapes floating downwards before my eyes. Scarey thought but as The Archmeister says, "Sad but true"!!
And tetris evolution has been released for 360 now! made by THQ though I never liked the THQ versions of tetris allways liked it better being backed up by it's home maker NES
