I was disappointed to find out that we pretty much had all the tetris's that were on the CD. In fact the CD says that the contents of the CD were previously released on Public Domain. What would of been worthwhile is if the games on the CD were not shareware but the full games. The CD cost me $15.00 USD and we did get like 8 games that we didn't see on Aminet, so that's something anyway. There's about 70 tetris's for the Amiga on the CD, and I'm not sure about how many different Tetris's for the PC are on the CD. So If you have a PC and an Amiga and you have a wife who's been bored with the same old tetris's then it's not so bad. But in my honorable opinion you're not missing much, hell I can't get some of the games to work. There is a variety for different specced machines, AGA, ECS, and 020, things like that. Really, my wife isn't that impressed with the CD, either am I.
