Largest Game Of Tetris

[jumanji798]

From what I've read this was done by some Dutch students to their engineering building in 1995. So the camera and video quality is from '95.

[lenalena111]

fyi, it's a university library, not an office building. but im sure thats been pointed out already

[ixnine9]

they have tetris in building size!!! damn i just got it on my psp... if only i had known!

[rlput629]

(continued...) Someone else added the music. The original video, project description, and java simulation are at: bastilleweb techhouse org (with the usual connecting punctuation between the parts of that web address)

[rlput629]

(continued...) It was a bunch of students from Tech House who ran wires and rigged up the lights in the windows and programmed the game which could be controlled from a laptop across the street. It was way cool!

[rlput629]

It's not fake. I was there watching it and got to play for a couple of minutes during alumni reunion and commencement weekend at Brown University in 2000 when they were showing it off for one last time. That building is the Sciences Library (affectionately known as the "Sci-Li").

[zitrumacid]

that's fake, watch this in real,

watch?v=PxCQy0wHTlE&feature=re­lated

[evanesp23]

stupid video...photoshopped....

[LadyTarasque]

haha, that's just funny.. talk about good co-ordination :O

[upgrademicro1]

its not stop motion its just crappy video quality

[ResistTheClick]

Cool! Stop motion xD

[SpeedDaemon3]

Ghost at 0:34 !!!

[V4nh3llsing]

:DDDDD

[TayTay2010]

those damn MIT kids...

[ML4M]

That's Brown University, not MIT.

[sanderson]

dude, that was bad ass!

[legofans452]

I think that's only a car. I guess the camera is actually far from the building, and it's zoomed in and focused on the windows.

[xxjusstsurfxx]

Ghost at :34!!!!

[lovezfood]

Whoa! Cool! Is that real!

[krabbenfilet]

no, it's not real

[vrx2]

yes it is real our interim headtecher told us about this......"three kids around thirteen were expelled from school(i don't know where) and on night they broke into an office building and connected the lighting system to their laptop and from the park they played a game of tetris"

[ML4M]

It's not an office building, and the students were not expelled. They were engineering students at Brown, and that's the science library for the university.

[gojira930]

STOP MOTION

[rybamlooda]

better look for "P.I.W.O 2" on youtube, much better than this!

[dirk399]

this is real stuff, i found a site where you could control lights on a building once, but i dnt remember it anymore.

on the site you could also controll a house (lights and stuff) and switch it off and on, i don't wanna live in that house.

[ayreon86]

fantastic!

[realcelestialphoenix]

wow this is cool

why hasent anyone done it in vegas, on the massive casinos there??

[MartinK303]

that takes some skill!

[mariux00]

and some electricity, too...lol 5/5

[JoeBobOneHalf]

Defiantly impressive enough to leave a comment AND five stars

[asdfghjklwx3]

COOL =|

[AllanT101]

this was one of the buildings at M.I.T. i was just in that building today, boston, MA.

[hlapurocciel]

I think this is Brown.

[AllanT101]

nah i've toured each, and my sister goes to MIT, there they have that same building AND they even said that they did this, the "hackers".

i could still be wrong but im 99% sure.

[nolitafaerietale]

I just visited Brown today. They mentioned that they'd done this, and this *looks* like the building the tour guide was speaking about...but I'm not entirely sure.

Can anyone confirm whether it's Brown or MIT?

[snowsummit]

Brown

[MagnesianPhoenix]

Brown? I don't recognize the building. Where is it exactly?

[fght1111]

oh ya in RI brown did it is that it???

[MagnesianPhoenix]

Yeah, I know where Brown is; thanks though. What I meant was, where on campus is this? I'm somewhat familiar with the campus and I don't think I've seen this building.

[ashiinu37]

It's the science library

[MagnesianPhoenix]

Thanks! I guess I'm not as familiar as I thought.

[goodasnew852]

yes, it's brown

[JAXJAK218]

man walking in the street to go to work: wtf hapennd to my job LOL

[santiagoff]

COOL

[1dplover]

lol sweet XD

[HPAnimeFreak]

lol

[sergeu78]

Офигеть.

[lxoxsxox]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!

[hyrtyzly]

prelest...

[undeadXflamingXfox]

ure crap at tetris

[UberDude1337]

its actually aliens sending a message to their leader... O_o

[Pacsassin]

lol

[MagnoliaFan36]

pretty well synchronized... but bad quality.

[bprft]

this is pretty much sucks since it's stop-motion and not a real game. i believe it's either a stunt with people turning on lights or it's a fake (check out how crooked the bottom row of windows is). i think ccc's blinkenlights and the project in wroclaw are way more impressive.

[blah11blah]

way to be a noob and a hater at the same time =D

[Mikiyikiy]

I would rater attempt to stuff a skunk up yours

[beautyru5h]

u should watch human tetris, much better

[zhu511]

it's a building at brown university

[meneerrex]

boring

[calculatorwatch]

it would be cooler if the levels disappeared when they made lines

[halchadwick]

they do, he just left a gap on the left :p

[Jomb3]

It's not biggest anymore :P

[Tennisbolden]

Is that the Dunder Mifflin Scranton branch?

[elementalpowerstar]

Nope. Is the empire state building. Here's your sign. ^__^

No. The building is more horizontal than vertical. Plus it would have garage.

[nygiantsfan6]

Did you just say that that's the Empire State Building?

[FryGuy112]

and he also said: "here's your sign" numbnuts

[tluczekziemniakowy]

AMAZING

[masi4ki]

[hedgehogga]

[rhicurry]

[yorkieliam]

i bet the boss wasnt happy lol, or he could have been the one filming it :p

[zzikaro]

[Benyons1]

[roboturtle1991]

I HATE THAT FUCKIN GAME!!!!! GRR LOL

[JellyBoyy]

[throbulater]

[sintofg]

[sokoweb]

i think that is it :D:D:D:D:D

[Fajkar]

Isnt this a building of Slovak Television in Bratislava???

[keeroy]

podoba sa, ale ta ma trosku tmavsiu fasadu.

[jwhitey369]

Is this the Brown Sci-Li?

[Piro42]

I think it's that building that's been tweaked so you can call it and play tetris from your phone on the big screen.

[copyeye16]

That must have took much practice.

[jessivel]

That was classic!!! Just great... BRAVO!!!

[AquaTealGreen]

Was this a couple yrs ago? i think i heard about it and they said The WOZ was there, being a big tetris fan himself

[kissemaiasse]

omg kewl

[IamWafflegod]

lol either this actually works or some orginized people with lightswitches

[mimichen]

* GLEE * /geek

[deltajuliet]

that's awesome

[goku178]

i can do way better then that

[simpsonsfn89]

Actually, this is the sciences library at Brown. They spent 6 months setting it up, and had to get rid of all the wiring after just one game

[CeeStyleDj]

You you-tuber's think everything is fake. Get Out and LIVE LIFE. This is real.

[Truthiness231]

ROFL because life is in watching people play video games on buildings..

Whoever was playing sucked, halfway through it looked as though the guy stopped putting pieces in logically and just started throwing them in wherever.

[lucasartsss]

(Y)

[riverblue]

That is great!

[Utroll]

That's an old trick.

And not the biggest one ?

[SleepVigorously]

Nice use of MS PAint look at the bottom row it looks pretty hand drawn

[FeanorM]

http://digg.com/gaming/The_wor­ld_s_Largest_Tetris_Game

[zaipe]

Well I certainly didn't mean to lie as I knew nothing about that. And I'm not gonna google for everything I find interesting to see if it's fake or not.

Thanks for pointing that out though.
