Classic Tetris World Championship final
I have been watching Tetris videos on Youtube. :blush:
This is the final of the World Championship in December 2018. They play it on 1989 NES Tetris. Amazing play. |

Classic Tetris in the news.

First time a game crash level has been achieved - possible using the rolling technique. Unfortunately, some of the top players quit playing after that technique was developed because they weren't competitive anymore. |

Is getting a game to crash really ‘beating’ or ‘completing’ it ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |
Surprising that no one managed it before if a 13 year old can do it in half an hour
I don't really understand how this 'hypertapping' thing works tbh |

Sounds like they are simply overloading the processing system .. . like when you click too many times with the mouse on a PC. ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |
Hypertapping is just pressing the left and right button really quickly (more than ten times a second) to get the pieces across - as opposed to holding down left or right.
The new technique is rolling where they are strumming their fingers on the back of the controller to get it to vibrate, and cause the buttons to press even quicker. |

I just watched a video of rolling and even though that's supposedly less strenuous on your hands than hypertapping it still seems bloody difficult. It's funny I always thought of Tetris as an old game my Dad played and yet it's all brainy teenagers playing it now |

BTW, the kid that got the first game crash has just got banned from Twitch because they found from the media coverage that he created his account before he was 13. :umm2: |

…the presenter’s name is Jayne Secker and I do think that her view/comment is very narrow and not well thought out…she used the words of speaking ‘as a mother’ in feeling that this was not something of much achievement worth or value etc…and yet as that same mother, she’s downgrading what is an incredible achievement of a child and the praise that deserves and how important it is to encourage something that builds confidence and to recognise their own excellence…gaming is also something that could help build confidence and help children to ‘go outside’ because it’s helped with fears and insecurities with interactions etc…I’m probably overthinking this…:laugh:…but I do feel for that child who is obviously thrilled with their Tetris achievement and rightfully so…and a TV presenter display such criticism, while not balancing it… …I don’t know anything about Twitch tbh…. |
