VGS Reader's Poll Results

In last week's VideoGameSpot Twitch poll, we asked you what the best puzzle game is and I'm delighted to say that 62.5 percent of you agreed with me: Tetris is it...and so I do win my lunch after all.

A little more than 12 percent of you thought Tetrisphere was the best puzzle game and 25 percent of you named other games from Baku Baku to Tetris Attack as your favorites.

Read on for comments.

"I think that Tetris is the best puzzle game ever. That other game looks confusing and stupid. Hope you win that lunch thing." -Paul Crolley

"Are you kidding? Asking a Russian what is the best puzzle game of all time? Well, Tetris, of course. The game is unbelievably addictive, transferred to any and all platform existing and known in this world (including, but not limited to watches, calculators, teapots, irons and so on and so forth). What could be dropped on a 360K disk together with a bunch of work documents and played during the lunch? After the lunch? Before the lunch and instead of it? Tetris, of course! What had this nice 'escape' key feature, instantaneously closing the game screen and calling some kind of worksheet simulation to fool the boss? Tetris! And what was the boss doing in his room? Tetris, of course! What the heck is Nintendo64 anyway? I think you've won the lunch. E-mail me the desert. :)" -Timothy Osin

"To put things in proper perspective, if there first wasn't Tetris, there would never have been a Tetrisphere! I'll put my vote in for Tetris! I do have *all* the respective versions too! Tengen's (5 sealed copies), Nintendo's, CD-I's, and of course, I do have Tetrisphere!" -Michael

"My vote goes to Bust-A-Move." -Jose Guiterrez

"I would have to agree with you, Tetrisphere is the best game in that category." -Scott Dillingham

"Tetrisphere is by far the best puzzle game." -Ryan Strutin

"Sorry, Tetrisphere is better! More involved, more variety. I played Tetrisphere, and it kicks Tetris into a bucket that's headed on a 1-way trip to Otto, my trashman. Sincerest Apologies" -Bradford Lafleur

"I'd have to say Tetris mainly because I've made similar bets & had to buy lunch myself. I want you to get it because hey, there is such a thing as a free lunch." -Ahmed

"Tetris Attack is the best puzzle game ever! You can put down two votes, because my friend and I both agree on this." -Mike LaBrie

"Tetris really is the best puzzle game of all time, although I wouldn't exactly say that the puzzle games are good. Nevertheless, out of all those puzzle games that are out there, Tetris is the best." -Ilya Gordon

"tetris, if u give me ure desert :)" -Chris Roberts
