The Tetris Company has dominated the mobile market and has a presence on almost every platform ever. So the only thing left is for The Tetris Company to beam Tetris straight into your brains. Or in this case, straight from your TV.
The Tetris Company and Oberon Media are working with DISH Network to bring the addictive puzzle game right through your Television sets for just $2.99 a month. You'll be able to play Tetris with your remote control and particiapte in tournaments for prizes and spots on the national leader boards. There will be two game types for Tetris TV -- Marathon mode where you'll have to work through 15 challenges and 40-Lines where you have to clear 40 lines the fastest.
I'm really liking this push for casual social gaming on large scale terms. This is the future, people.

Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
