Before you ask "What did Trey think of TETRIS EFFECT?" or "Why does he play SO SLOW?", here's a second video where we answer those questions. Enjoy! th-cam.com/video/0j_fp5L8Si8/w-d-xo.html
it was the first time he was playing with a diferent controller than the nes, so he had to play to get good and stuff. but then he played in the vr version and he did a tetris made of 12 erased lines. he thought it was great.
i have a question, have you ever made anything with your hands or preformed with an instrument? because that is another way to get that flow state you were talking about and i wonder if that mentality is more prevalent among some people causing them to be better puzzelers or musicians?
Giant fan of VR (on PC for years), 100% it was only the latency due to their TV likely not being optimal for gaming (or outside game mode) and the profi player being used to playing the NES version likely on a CRT. But the player even directly said it was the latency so Nick saying the immersion played a role seems made up to fit the theme.
oh right, screaming like a man-ape when opening a slightly fancier looking version of cardboard for a living is what you expected of life. but a video about tetris, catching your interest, is fucking ridiculous.
true. the foresight and planning is something to behold. Also (less related) nice timestamp, I appreciate it when people back it up a second or two for context
For a fast player ( 80 dpm+ ) that shouldve been a zone start and easily a potential Ultimatris, but for someone just starting on the game its impressive, specially since the leap from classic to modern can be confusing.
That “flow state” is really fucking crazy. I’ve only had while playing Tetris. When it happens to me it’s like an athlete that is in the “zone”. You just start playing without thinking and it feels like there is nothing else other then the game. It’s a really crazy feeling.
... ITS CUZ ITS THE SAME THING, flow state is the real term, it was discovered in musictians, who would enter a state of hyperfocus, it requires (for consistant) being highly skilled at the thing, and also Fighting harder "enemies"
@@davidbanan. yes flow state is a very real and studied phenomenon, it doesn't just occur when playing games, it can happen during all sorts of activities
@ I got it for Oculus quest and eventhough I can't do the "everything has it's place and you instantly game over once you mess up once" method I became quite good at since the blocks don't have different colors, I have become way better at "spontaneous" gameplay
@Thiago Moura low latency is REALLY important in NES Tetris, which is probably why he noticed that. They can’t even play on newer TVs in NES Tetris, they HAVE to use old CRT TVs to play a lot of the higher levels.
"Wait guys, how do you play?" Trey has drawn first blood! Trey is on a killing spree! Trey is on a rampage! Trey is unstoppable! Trey is dominating! Trey is godlike! "Don't guys, I figured it out."
Man, as a pro it must have been so refreshing to see the game you mastered receive a complete makeover, music update, visuals, mechanics, on a way that fells respectful and loving to the original
exactly! I felt the same from someone who's first experience with Tetris was on original gameboy back in 1990, then being utterly addicted to the #1 version which is NES - I think Tetris Effect is a masterpiece in every way, shape, and form
@@yarshmellow2323 Does it really matter what name it has? "Tetris 99" is the official name, and "Tetris Battle Royale" is just a fan nickname derived from the game's concept.
What's interesting is that Tetris Effect added Classic Mode as part of the Connected update. This is meant to emulate the feel and gameplay of the NES title. I'd be interested to see Trey return and see it himself.

shout outs to this video for getting me into tetris 5 years ago. ive met so many new friends through tetris and now gone to 3 different lan events. thanks for making this masterpiece of a video.
Not only that, you can tell he loves it by not saying a damn thing and just taking in the magic of it all, Dude found a different world inside that VR set lol
Not only that but also he played this new version with respect, showing you don't need to hate the new just because you play the the old. This guy is a true gamer and a true lover of Tetris. AND he rocks it
Exactly, therefore I think that "headphones for your eyes" sounds like a bad analogy. Well, of course there are great headphones today. But when I hear the word "headphones" it doesn't resonate (lol) with me, in association to this much more limitless and "future" technology.

fully caught myself holding my breath during the vr attempt on the decahexatris, and i'm not sure if it was because of the game (very beautiful) or the play (very good) or just because it was very cool to see someone make history. a good video
After playing a single version of tetris for 30 years many people would have had nothing but petty criticism for every aspect of the new game that defied their expectations or put them outside of their comfort zone. Watching the world's greatest player pick up a completely foreign controller, rapidly adapt and proceed to eagerly flog those blocks out of existence is both a testament to his freakish talent and love for the game as well as the stunning execution of design realized by the games developers. You've done a beautiful thing by introducing the classic tetris champ to the next generation of the game he loves so much. Much respect to you for taking this great idea for a video, making it a reality and sharing it with all of us. 👌
Well he's not the world's "greatest" but he's definitely really good at the game. I think it's worth saying that no matter what version of tetris you are playing - you're still playing tetris. All the skill built up and the understanding of the game doesn't just go away. So of course he's still good at it.
Connected Forever IS the theme song to Tetric Effect for me, and to hear this guy say "I've never heard something like this" while its playing and he's doing the decahexatris its magical.
I believe it's one of the dude's in the room talking about the sounds the game was making while in the "zone" because he was doing so well, not referring to the music, no?
because it's refreshing to see someone play a game because they enjoy it, not because it's the "hype" game or the most popular game atm. Being a common person in a crowd or being a sheep simply because everyone else is playing that one game is boring. Play what you like or what is most fun to you is what's important.
Same. Between my PC and PS4 Pro I already have Tetris Ultimate and Tetris Zone and I figured there's no way I want another Tetris game, but these guys have sold me on it.
I wanna share something: When I was a teenager, I used to play a specific Tetris version called "Tetris Cascade" (2003) on my Motorola flip phone. It's basically Tetris with gravity. So if you would have hole below your soon-to-be-cleared line and a tetrimino placed above said line, it can fall into that hole after clearing and create another finished line. That way I could do 12 lines in one go. Very satisfying. Also I would do symmetric builds with a lot of those fall-in-holes up till the top of the window, and then activate that cascade. Oddly satisfying to watch the tetriminoes fall symmetrically until everything got cleared till the bottom. I loved that so much. More than classic Tetris. I still have the software copy on my PC but nothing to run it on. I miss it to this day.
This is such a well made video and I never felt bored while watching and I’ve never had any interest in Tetris but I just couldn’t stop watching, you have earned yourself a new sub
Trey is more suited to pushing down pieces and taking his time to calculate the next best move. I don’t think Trey would be able to last a minute with the competition. But in CTWC? He’s one of the organizers for that event for a reason.
Thank you so much for making this video. Seeing moments like this really elaborates on what gaming means to people, and how varied it's audience is and can be. Side note: I found a new appreciation for tetris.
Came into this video really not expecting much as I've never been a Tetris fan... this video was absolutely awesome! That decahexatris bit was so good!
i got a video recommended that was just a japanese guy playing wii sports tennis and breaking the wall all the way from left to right so that it defyed gravity. I enjoyed it lmao. Nice recommend
It always amazes me how smart NES tetris players are with decision making... but they're so slow on any modern tetris system. Regardless, awesome video. Excited to pick up Tetris Effect later this year >:]
I remember seeing this video before I really got into Tetris and being amazed and now that I've played a lot of Tetris Effect this seems so simple now. It's wild how much it puts into perspective how much better I am now. I'd be really interested to see a follow-up on the 20+ line clears now that Kirby managed to get 23.
Like everyone else, I think this video is VERY well done. You explain things but don't talk in circles OVEREXPLAINING things. You keep it simple and I really enjoyed this video despite not caring about Tetris.
This was a really uplifting video. To see Trey as a child loving Tetris and still loving it now makes me think of the Charlie Kaufman quote along the lines of "You are the not the people who love you, you are the things you love".
I really like Trey, so many other people would have gone "ew, this is different. I'm not playing that". But he actually gave it his best shot and seemed to be hoping that he enjoyed it.
The year is 20XX, Every Tetris player at the Tetris Championship uses a Playstation VR Headset with Tetris Effect. Competition has exceeded skill level and is instead based on the latency of their respective VR headsets.
Tetris Effect is SUCH an underrated game. I just spent about 6 hours straight with my Soundsystem cranked up, speakers on either side of my monitor, and 2000W Infinity subwoofer in the corner across the room just killin it. sooooo much fun and super addictive. I'll be trying multiplayer soon, which sounds like a total blast. I've been playing Tetris since Gameboy and they really outdid themselves on this one. the amount of care and attention to detail in this game leads me to believe that the devs ACTUALLY LIKE TETRIS. imagine that. Anyhoo, highly recommend this game. 9.5/10 easily and it is rather inexpensive at that. goes on sale on Steam pretty regularly, too. 😎😎😎

fully caught myself holding my breath during the vr attempt on the decahexatris, and i'm not sure if it was because of the game (very beautiful) or the play (very good) or just because it was very cool to see someone make history. a good video
wav Right? I didn't even realize I was holding my breath until I suddenly breathed out.
Saw this video maybe 20 times on youtube when I loaded it up. Finally I was like "Fine, I'll watch it." Glad I did.
Lol same with me lol, I actually found that kinda intersting
Allen Rounds same! :)
well the same here
Same thing here

The chimes when he reaches the top still give me chills
After playing a single version of tetris for 30 years many people would have had nothing but petty criticism for every aspect of the new game that defied their expectations or put them outside of their comfort zone. Watching the world's greatest player pick up a completely foreign controller, rapidly adapt and proceed to eagerly flog those blocks out of existence is both a testament to his freakish talent and love for the game as well as the stunning execution of design realized by the games developers. You've done a beautiful thing by introducing the classic tetris champ to the next generation of the game he loves so much. Much respect to you for taking this great idea for a video, making it a reality and sharing it with all of us. 👌
Being paid for it by the game creators would help, I imagine ;)
This isn't smash
Well he's not the world's "greatest" but he's definitely really good at the game. I think it's worth saying that no matter what version of tetris you are playing - you're still playing tetris. All the skill built up and the understanding of the game doesn't just go away. So of course he's still good at it.
"headphones for your eyes" i have never though of vr that way
so cool!
And then there's me, whose Skyrim saves are so loaded up with mods that immersion is a foreign concept
Randy Savage and Thomas the Dank engine? Yes, I feel you.
Connected Forever IS the theme song to Tetric Effect for me, and to hear this guy say "I've never heard something like this" while its playing and he's doing the decahexatris its magical.
I believe it's one of the dude's in the room talking about the sounds the game was making while in the "zone" because he was doing so well, not referring to the music, no?
@@BIG_PASTA I belive you are right.
Idk why but seeing this man playing his favorite game touches my heart look at him having fun 😊
because it's refreshing to see someone play a game because they enjoy it, not because it's the "hype" game or the most popular game atm. Being a common person in a crowd or being a sheep simply because everyone else is playing that one game is boring. Play what you like or what is most fun to you is what's important.

Same. Between my PC and PS4 Pro I already have Tetris Ultimate and Tetris Zone and I figured there's no way I want another Tetris game, but these guys have sold me on it.
Awesome to see a legendary Tetris master experience this fun and beautiful version of Tetris. PSA, check out the dynamic theme for this game!
Not on ps5 😰
@@pandaketamine yea sadly not on ps5, forgot to mention
I was gonna make a "Boom.Tetris for Jeff" joke, but one was already made in the first minute of the video.

The name checks out!

Don't tell this guy about the new Tetris Battle Royale, he'll break the game
New Tetris is so different, go watch some new Tetris monsters start crushing tspins in their sleep
Wumbo is the king of Tetris 99 for now.
I'm not sure he would enjoy it honestly
Having blocks appear out of nowhere for basically no reason is so different from what he's used to

The Ninja/Tfue of Tetris 99
I wanna share something:
When I was a teenager, I used to play a specific Tetris version called "Tetris Cascade" (2003) on my Motorola flip phone. It's basically Tetris with gravity. So if you would have hole below your soon-to-be-cleared line and a tetrimino placed above said line, it can fall into that hole after clearing and create another finished line. That way I could do 12 lines in one go. Very satisfying. Also I would do symmetric builds with a lot of those fall-in-holes up till the top of the window, and then activate that cascade. Oddly satisfying to watch the tetriminoes fall symmetrically until everything got cleared till the bottom.
I loved that so much. More than classic Tetris. I still have the software copy on my PC but nothing to run it on.
I miss it to this day.
Tetris worlds has a game mode called cascade which is the same so maybe you could check that out
This is such a well made video and I never felt bored while watching and I’ve never had any interest in Tetris but I just couldn’t stop watching, you have earned yourself a new sub

Woah woah calm down Aristotle
Imagine this guy playing tetris 99 on the switch.
Oh ho ho that would be a BANGER
NO NO NO I DISAGREE
Trey is more suited to pushing down pieces and taking his time to calculate the next best move. I don’t think Trey would be able to last a minute with the competition. But in CTWC? He’s one of the organizers for that event for a reason.
Why
Wait if you have a seizure you can’t remember anything.
You really help narrate and contexulizd the story! I love this video
Thank you so much for making this video. Seeing moments like this really elaborates on what gaming means to people, and how varied it's audience is and can be.
Side note: I found a new appreciation for tetris.
Came into this video really not expecting much as I've never been a Tetris fan... this video was absolutely awesome! That decahexatris bit was so good!
“Allowing you, for the first time in Tetris history, to clear more than 4 lines at once.”

It always amazes me how smart NES tetris players are with decision making... but they're so slow on any modern tetris system.
Regardless, awesome video. Excited to pick up Tetris Effect later this year >:]
SimpleFlips
Them small differences are big I tell you.

SimpleFlips What are you doing here!? xD
I expect that the first thing you try will be a filthy 4 wide setup decahexatris speedrun.
Shoutout to TetrisFlips
I remember seeing this video before I really got into Tetris and being amazed and now that I've played a lot of Tetris Effect this seems so simple now. It's wild how much it puts into perspective how much better I am now.
I'd be really interested to see a follow-up on the 20+ line clears now that Kirby managed to get 23.
i just re-watched this for the first time in like 2 years and had the some thought.
shhhhhhhhhhhh
Like everyone else, I think this video is VERY well done. You explain things but don't talk in circles OVEREXPLAINING things. You keep it simple and I really enjoyed this video despite not caring about Tetris.
Ahh, thank you! That's very kind.
This is just so cute. I love how open he is to the idea.
Watching him achieve the dechexatris literally made my hair stand on end. Incredible.
The fact that they have footage of 13 yr old Trey is just amazing!

Well this was a fascinating video to show up in my recommended videos... first time in over a month, but good job TH-cam. And you too, Mr. Robinson.
I see interesting stuff in recommended videos literally all the time. Every single video I watch has at least a few interesting related videos.
For the best
Same thing just happened to me lol thanks TH-cam for a good video
This was a really uplifting video. To see Trey as a child loving Tetris and still loving it now makes me think of the Charlie Kaufman quote along the lines of "You are the not the people who love you, you are the things you love".
This guy: dexahexatris
Ultimatris: pathetic
Impossibilitris: y'all hear sum
I really like Trey, so many other people would have gone "ew, this is different. I'm not playing that". But he actually gave it his best shot and seemed to be hoping that he enjoyed it.
"how do i play"
**Proceeds to get first ever decahexatris**
"nvm i figured it out"

The year is 20XX, Every Tetris player at the Tetris Championship uses a Playstation VR Headset with Tetris Effect. Competition has exceeded skill level and is instead based on the latency of their respective VR headsets.
And people will still probably be playing TGM1
iblobtouch by then it will be TGM3
Hubismal 4 wides IN VR
nah man itll be puyo puyo tetris effect
At that point you wouldn't use a headset. Any PC gaming monitor worth its money usually has a 1ms response time
just wanted to come back 3 years later to say thanks. this video is pretty much the reason I got in to tetris
hell yeah :>

This video reinvigorated my joy of Tetris, and also helped me make a great purchase for my switch.
The analogy that "vr can be like headphones for your eyes" is one of the coolest ways that vr has ever been described.

Great work on the video and it was very wholesome to watch it play out. :)

Tetris Effect is SUCH an underrated game. I just spent about 6 hours straight with my Soundsystem cranked up, speakers on either side of my monitor, and 2000W Infinity subwoofer in the corner across the room just killin it. sooooo much fun and super addictive. I'll be trying multiplayer soon, which sounds like a total blast. I've been playing Tetris since Gameboy and they really outdid themselves on this one. the amount of care and attention to detail in this game leads me to believe that the devs ACTUALLY LIKE TETRIS. imagine that. Anyhoo, highly recommend this game. 9.5/10 easily and it is rather inexpensive at that. goes on sale on Steam pretty regularly, too. 😎😎😎
