Insane Tetris player

From Youtube:

"TGM HOLiC aka Jin8 playing TGM3. He's the best tetris ds player in the world.
it's slow in the beginning. insanely fast near the end. speed increases at 3mins"

Starts of very slow but if you don't have the patience to watch that just skip to 3 minutes in. The end is even crazier.

The only way I could see that at being possible is that if the pieces are always in the same order... because there are people who can remember insanely long combinations of things like that. But actually reacting that fast to random items... surely you'd need to be strong in the force for that?

This actually isn't THAT hard. The newer Tetris' are all much easier than the old versions, namely the GB and arcade. This looks like it has the gameplay feature that allows you to slide your pieces around the bottom for a few seconds before it actually falls into place, giving you that much more breathing space. Most newer Tetris' also allow you to 'Hold' (as already mentioned) a choice Tetrimino for later use, lessening the difficulty. I'd like to see this done on the old arcade version w/near instant falling blocks.

All the new features sorta cheapen the experience if you're playing solo but going head-to-head it opens the gate for much more strategy.

This is not fake, and very very possible. He is able to see the current piece, the next 2 in a row, and hold one piece for as long as he likes.

It takes a certain kind of spatial logic and a whole lot of practice, but it's not really that hard.

Clearly this isn't fake. If you watch his hands you can see that his moves match up with what's happening on screen. This guy has some serious skills, and to anyone who says it isn't that hard.. well, you are fooling yourself. I'm a really good tetris player and I flat out suck compared to this guy. Enhancements or no, there are not many people in the world who could do what he did in this video.

why do ppl keep calling fake?

Tetris 'grandmasters' DO play this fast. And the video itself is hosted by Arika as you can see on the bottom of the videoin big blue letters. What is Arika, you might wonder? The company who MADE the TGM games.
