Today, tetris turned 25. As expected, google even had a theme for that.

I always loved tetris. Join me in celebrating one of the greatest games in history!

Good old tetris. That game will never get old, no matter how old it gets.

Tetris DX for GBC is the best tetris, hands down.

The original is the best. Newer revisions may sell more, but they wouldn't exist if not for the original.

Had no idea tetris was 25 today. I saw the Google banner today and was like, eh its Google, they do what they want.
