Great Moments in Games Journalism by Ice Cream Jonsey 12/08/2009, 11:22am PST Joystiq is on my RSS feed, and they had the following article today: http://www.joystiq.com/2009/12/08/where-does-the-next-tetris-block-really-comes-from/ In a post-Digg world, the URL is usually enough to look at, but I thought - wow. Years after Alexey Pajitnov released Tetris, someone decided to write an article about the engine that selects the next block. Maybe it's just random, and sort of uninteresting, but was the same routine used for the arcade, Spectrum Holobyte and Gameboy versions? Did they differ at all? This is going to be a great article. Yeah, it's actually a link to a skit from CollegeHumor.com. ICJ
