When I was taking an interactive arts class where we dissected and analyzed video games back in college someone did a paper on Tetris as a religion. Turned out there were people in our city that even made a church and a religion for Tetris. Basically just like this article states, you sort out your life as many things come barreling down on you. Haha Tetris as a religion, whatever.

I loved the MS paint art. I thought if you complete Tetris you launch a rocket?

This article is symbolism at it's best. It also foreshadows all of our fates. We'll all die and be buried six feet under, or be cremated, or be mutilated, etc. If I wrote this, I'd struggle after two or three lessons.

The only things that was not mentioned was the fact that with tetris being a game, u can choose to play it whenever u like. Not so much the case with real life. Btw, has anyone seen the movie "Gamer" yet? Thought it was relevant.

Only Gamesradar can take a simple game like Tetris and make it deep. And that is why they're the best f**king game's site on the planet. I feel sorry for the fish though, I didn't know they didn't like tequila.
