Tetris Effect coming out November 9 - time limited demo out NOW
- Thread starter Kyoufu
- Start date
I'm a huge Tetris fan, but I'm actually going to wait and see what kind of options there are when you're playing on a TV. In the footage I've seen, the game field takes up wayyyyy too little of the screen for my liking.
I understand the reasoning is that the visual effects need space and are an important part of what they're going for with this game, but that might make it a pass for me, personally.
I think it goes without saying that the playfield will be a LOT bigger than that. That screenshot is trying to convey the view in VR, and includes a bunch of peripheral vision.
We can assume this will eventually find its way onto Vive right? Rez Infinite eventually came to Steam; Sony isn't shelling money out for this one are they? I'd just rather not dig out the PSVR if I don't have to (but all these reviews for Astro Bot are making me consider picking it up)
Holy fuck does the theme play the song? I need to see it in action. Cause there's so many games on my plate I can't get to TE just yet, BUT I could just buy the theme until I get the time to actually play the game.
As long as the title track is there I'm good. Just preordered. Wish I could download the OST now, lol.
PS store page says there's 7 tracks in the sample soundtrack. Really wish it was all of them but it should be like Lumines and you can easily put them on your phone.
$40 is pretty steep, but I'll pick up a physical copy. Hopefully Best Buy gets it so it can be one of the last GCU games I get on discount.
Game says 30 stages, so guessing there are going to be at least 30 tracks in the main game. Also, they want to sell that OST, which I'm down for. 7 track sampler feels like a nice pre-order bonus to me. I was expecting 40, so it coming in with a pre-order discount means I'm buying this, this week, probably with Red Dead 2.

It's certainly a legit Amazon placeholder page made by... someone? Your guess is as good as mine though that's maybe some evidence? I know I'm gonna wait, or at least try to...
Speak of the devil. PHYSICAL CONFIRMED!

I prefer download for a game like Tetris.
Don't want to switch every time the disc for a few Tetris rounds.
Need to see/hear a video.
Pre order theme looks good :)
Though it should be good if it is like the Rez ones.
Remains to be seen if it's a Tetris with staying power. Axis, my current "Tetris of choice," was definitely a game I shifted from physical to digital on (bought both) without regrets. So I hear ya... as someone who has played Tetris just about every day since 1989. :)
I am confident it should have a lot of staying power on my hard drive :)
Was looking forward to it. But i don't have VR and 40 bucks for a Tetris game is too freaking much. And Tetris needs to be portable to be truly usefull to me.
Speaking of which, wonder if they're gonna make a Daydream / Oculus Go version like they did with Rez Infinite.
It's 10 percent off on PSN now if you pre-order. Unfortunately it also looks like all the extras are unavailable until release.
I couldn't care less about PSVR, but this game is from the guy that made Lumines, so he gets my money.

Only the soundtrack is available now. Guess theme and avatars are on release day.
£34.99/£31.49 PS+ UK .
Too expensive for me for a Tetris game. £25 would have been day 1. Ah well...

Link above makes mention of some sort of demo, though it might be a trade show thing:

£35 for this is borderline farcical, which is a shame because everything about it looks so good, including...
...maybe one of the best damn box arts I've ever seen.

That box art is beautiful! Best Buy GCU will make this an easier pill to swallow.

There will be, although it sounds like a limited time thing:

This was the most fun game I played at E3 this year (but I have a strong preference for Puzzle Games and Mizuguchi, so yrmv), so super excited to play it. The VR definitely added to the element, but I don't think I'm gonna get a VR system just for this game... although it is tempting.
Yeah, that price is too high for Tetris, VR or not. I'm hyped for the game, but I'll get it on Sale when they can go nearer to £20
Cool, thanks. I'll keep my eye out for it. I think vr demos are really important, I won't buy most games without trying it first
Insert a USB stick (Fat32 or ExFAT formatted) into your PS4, make sure it has a folder called MUSIC on it, and that the PS4 recognizes it under storage devices. It needs just under 50MB of free space.
The app on PS4 just copies the music onto your USB stick in MP3 format so you can listen on the PS4 or on your other devices. It worked for me. Sucks that the USB ports on the front of the pro can't fit thick USB sticks, so make sure you use a stick that actually fits. I suppose a USB hard drive would work too, as long as it's not one that you're using as external storage for PS4 games.
The sample tracks fill 20 minutes 4 seconds. The artist on all of them is listed as Hydelic, the same in-house group that did the Rez Infinite Area X music.

Was hyped for this game but worried they would fuck up the price and they did. It's almost $60 in Canada... for Tetris. If it was half the price I'm game but now I'll have to pass until a sale and considering how stubborn they've been with Rez sales it's going to be a long wait.
