34 years later, someone has beaten NES Tetris by reaching its "True Killscreen"
I think a link is missing:
When I was younger and possessed good eye / hand co-ordination along with a better ability to concentrate I got the Space Shuttle launch ending in one of the Tetris modes. These days? not even close.
There were some games - Nebulus on the Amstrad CPC6128 which would crash on completion.
Not quite what is meant these days when they say "Breaking the game"
