    i only played a game of marathon (instant #2 worldwide lol) and battle yet. game feels very fast and responsive. i am happy with it.

    trophies

    master (gold) finish all variants on lvl 15 and radical
    advanced (silver) complete all advanced feats
    achiever (silver) complete all career feats
    insane (silver) in origin clean lines 20, 10 and 1 in that order
    clear as water (silver) perform a bravo (clear your matrix)
    teamwork (bronze) clear at least 2 lines with a piece swapped to your in shared (additive)
    lockpick (bronze) unlock all variants
    giver (bronze) pass 100 lines to opponents on any multiplayer mode
    next! (bronze) surpass a friend on next best score
    synched (bronze) get a tetris within 3 seconds of a friend getting a tetris in team battle
    tetrinet (bronze) finish all 3 multiplayer modes online
    trigger happy (bronze) send 12 or more lines to one opponent in under 5 secs in battle, timed battle or team battle

    there is a lot more aside from gamemodes. it keeps a lot of statistics and scores and everything has leaderboards.
    battle for example has: rank, online id, skill level, rank points.
    there is master replay which shows some pros how they play the modes. and feats that u need to achieve to get trophies.

    add me on psn: cycledance

    Only one preview in multiplayer mode? o_O
     
  4. yea...saw that. i don't expect anything from this really. i am just happy they make one at all.
     
  5. there is a trailer on psn now.
    looks promising to me cause i can't see anything about combos...could it be that they were removed from the guidelines?

    it shows what u do while playing: tpm, kind of line clears (single, double, triple etc.)
    i saw earthquake and ice powerups...
    amount of previews u get is inconsistent. but looks like 1-4 max. depending on mode.

    you can watch replays from other players.

    i want it!!

  7. yay! that's the trailer from psn. so what do u guys think? anyone here with ps3 at all?
     
  8. 6 channel audio. ahahaha....=P
     
  9. I'd care if I had a PS3.

    I have a PS3 and I'm fairly meh about this. Looks like just another shit SRS game with mediocre multiplayer.
     
  11. What if it's in HD? :awe:
     
  12. I have a ps3 and i was hoping this game would be good but based on what caffeine has said about it i'm not expecting much.

    It'd be a pretty good joke if it weren't in HD, considering it's a PS3 title.

    I have a PS3. And an HRAP3 which is, incidentally, a PS3 controller. Man I hope the controls are either customizable or forgiving of joystick button layouts. I'll probably grab it when it comes out.

    Part of the reason I didn't get much out of Tetris Splash was that it was the only game I would have played online, and on its own, it wasn't worth subscribing to xbox live for. With PS3 Tetris being free to play online, I'll almost definitely be getting this. Let's just hope they don't do something stupid with the system, like rewarding all twists...
     
  17. i don't think rewarding all twists is bad. no ones talking about how they took out the combo system...which messed up the core of tetris gameplay too much imo. i am happy about that.
    i wanna know if they use elo rating...that'd be half the deal for me.
