I recently purchased a "PlayTV Legends Family Tetris" game, which is a direct-to-TV unit distributed by Radica Games. The game ships with two gamepad-style controllers which hold four "AA" batteries, and connects directly to a standard television via the television's audio/video composite inputs. Quite a fun game, although the graphics are very "cartoonish".

Anyhow, my all-time favorite version of Tetris is Spectrum Holobyte's "Tetris Classic" for PC (DOS). Developed by Sphere and released in 1992, this was the first version of Tetris that I had ever played (and I still play it, even today... long live DOS!).

P.S. Watch this space... Coming soon: updates for many of the skins, my Stereo Sound Effects Pack, as well as my LockJaw Skin and Setup Selector Utility for compatibility and new features of LockJaw v0.38!
