My first true multiplayer game love affair was with Tetris on the original Game Boy. My mom, dad, brother and I all took turns pummeling each other via the link cable and good times were had by all. Fast foward nearly 20 years, and that love affair is threatening a roaring comeback. Tetris Splash will be available for download this Wednesday and it features all of the greatness of the early Tetris games along with some cool new features such as 6 player free-for-all or team matches over Xbox LIVE and local split-screen matches. I got a chance to check the game out last week and it looks and plays better than any Tetris game in quite a long time.

More info can be found on the Tetris Splash game page on Xbox.com and the press release.
