Have some Vodka LUSH
So we have another birthday to celebrate. That fun lovable stupid arcade game that stole more quarters from me than Radio Shack. Tetris. The game was created by Alexey Pajitnov a Russian programmer (explains the funny looking building) in 1984. An actual classic that came along after I did. wow. We’ll Tetris is 25 today.
Pajitnov loved puzzles so it was only natural he would develop a puzzle based game. He got the name Tetris by combining the Tetromino, and Tennis. Both loves of Russia. I know I love some Russian Female Tennis players. Tetris was first release for the IBM then in 1987 it was released for the rest of the world. When Tetris was released for Gameboy and then it was right to the moon. Tetris actually has a checkered history filled with lawsuits, even involving the Soviet Government. Were not here to dig up the past. Pajitnov is back in control and is more than happy with the success. He gets more enjoyment that people all over the world enjoys the game daily, than he does from his large sum checks I’m sure he also receives.
Well Happy Birthday Tetris, we’ll see which one reaches 225 first. Game on.
