Seems like this is a completely new Tetris game app. I already spent $4.99 earlier on the original app and AppStore isn't prompting any upgrade. Upon searching, it's another $0.99 for a "revamp" Tetris. Nice move EA.

Where the hell do you live that's charging you $4.99 The original game was 99 cents and so is this one. I too agree that this is a brand new game and actually prefer the older version better.

When i first got my 3GS 2 years ago it was $4.99. I'm pretty pissed that all other apps provide straight update and this does not. If its Tetris 2 then I understand. I tried to search for Tetris in the AppStore and this is the only search result. They probably pulled the old app off from the store so this should be an update, NOT a new app so they can charge again!

You're "pretty pissed?" You spent $4.99 two years ago. This is a brand new version, totally redone. And it's now $0.99. Don't be "pretty pissed" over a game that costs less than a buck. Life's too short.
