Free version of "Tetris" being pulled off App Store

[Jeremy]

Tris is being pulled... So go grab it while you can... as of today it is still available for free download. But it seems the makers of Tetris worked some magic and Apple is pulling the free app.

Thanks for the heads up, little goody two-shoes.

Every time I see your avatar I think of Bert from Mary Poppins... I know it's not... but what is it from?

(ETA: Also kind of reminds me of Ernest from the Ernest movies... you know... Ernest Goes to Camp, Ernest Goes to Jail, Ernest gets a Happy Ending, etc.)

It's Bruce Campbell (actor) as Ash from the Evil Dead movies. Great movies from Sam Raimi (director of the Spider Man movies, actually the Evil Deads were his first 3 movies).

Thanks! I am a huge baby when it comes to scary flicks (even action movies freak me out because I am scared they are going to take a turn and become horror movies) so I know nothing about these movies. Just IMDBed them though.

See that's the thing... they are funny! If you have the chance watch part 2 and the 3rd. That's called Army of Darkness. Promise they are not scary. Slapstick type humor.

That was hilarious.......

So I missed the boat on tetris and I'm also sad to see there isnt a free chess app in itunes. Is there anywhere else to find iphone applications.

Official apps are only available via the iTunes App Store.

If you've jailbroken, however, you have Installer and Cydia to look at. Check out our Jailbroken Apps forum for more on those.

You discussion reminded me of old time when there were not cell-phones, and people were talking about movies they've watched, and books they've read.
