This was the most original, engaging, and artistic game I've ever played. Absolutely brilliant concept. A game paced to the tempo of music with player actions creating beats. What a game.
One time on a dose of psilocybin i was playing this,had to shut it off at one point...got wayyyy too intense.The smoke detector growing tentacles in my room was enough!
If you think it. Eden, the program that we're trying to save, is Lumi (a very old version, like 1.0), because they were both made for the same thing, hold the knowledge and log of all humanity and preserve it...
everyone with a girlfriend needs to get the Japanese version of this game and buy the special version that comes with a special controller for this game look it up the rez ps2 game vibrator only available in the japanese version of the game lol
For those that have never played this game it can be hard to understand why it is so cool.
First, the music is hypnotizing, and as you target objects and destroy them you actually contribute to the music. Part of the fun is to try and select targets at the right times to sync to the background music track.
Second i think it's just as important to have a rumble controller, because the controller vibrates to the beat.
On some levels by the time I was done, i felt like I had just been at a rave.
Dreamcast pretty much failed because they made a system that could play any game (for any system) that was basically before 2000 or 20002, aslong as it was in dreamcast format, No games where sold because downloading them offline was so much easier.
@twofro11 Yes, we all downloaded them on our 56k connections. All 200gb each of them. DC burning didnt become commonplace until a few years ago, and even then, most people don't know you can straight up burn DC games.
It was competition with the PS2 and a badly timed release/marketing campaign that killed the Dreamcast.
This comment is fairly old I know, but badly timed release of the Dreamcast? How so? If anything it was more the fact that Sega screwed over the entire Saturn community as to why the Dreamcast never truly took off. Especially in Japan where believe it or not, the Sega Saturn was actually a massive success.
And the fact that you could play burned games on a Dreamcast without modding it played a bigger part in it's brief popularity than you may think. As for actually downloading and burning the games yourself at home, yeah, that was pretty much unheard of at the time :P CD burners would cost about the same as a Dreamcast back then xD
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
It's a boring game, i'm not saying is bad but just boring. Don't buy it and if you wanna get it play it on an emu or get the Dreamcast ISO like i did.
So this goes on in our computers....DANG. When virtual reality is invented shall Rez or a better version of it be the first game to be in virtual reality(4D)
Yes i know. this really was made as a *LOOK AWAY NOW IF YOUR 6-10 OR PURITAN TYPE* a vibrating dildo for guys who cant get girls that love video games. it was made to appeal to women who liked the fieling of "horny" and so the guys who loved video games could get girls.
It's only because of the trance vibrator that girls took as a sex toy...originally it was used as something like an extra dualshock 2 pack for experiencing the vibrations on other parts of the body (excluding the genitalia)...but you know how stoners and ravers are...
if you have an original copy of this game you can easily score over £100 for it already (moreso if it's sealed). that's 160 dollars. it's shit-rare, so make sure you get your untouched copies while you can!
I need an Xbox 360. Is red ring of death still an issue? Are 360's still defective, or are all the ones sold in 2009 defect-free (the way it SHOULD be)? I really wanna invest in one, for the huge game library available on XBLA, but I'm worried about the console giving me troubles.
People are bigging up the RRoD too much since it's the only way to attack the consoles reputation. If you buy it new, you get a warranty for a problem that will most likely not even happen. I had mine I bought maybe two years after launch and it didn't get a red ring error until several years later, and they replaced it for free. And they were never "defective," they just had a small design flaw which was quickly fixed.
Fanboys need to stop arguing over which toy is better. Enjoy your stuff.
You probably left them on carpet, or were doing something horribly wrong. I treat my stuff with care, and I've only had one the entire time. If you left it on for more than 24 hours or something (like for getting that achievment on Dead rising), then that may be the problem. You might just be leaving it in a hot place or on top of something that retains heat.
this one of the first games i ever played and i loved it because it makes you use almost all of your senses i also like to listen to pink floyd while i play this. it sets the mood to a herroin simulation
You can get this game on Xbox live nowadays it costs 800 points and Imo very much worth the investment. They upgraded it to a HD version of the version shown in this vid and it looks incredible on a HD tv.
Rez is for those who comprehend that a game can thrill...actually, as I started typing that, I realised it was untrue. I was going to say that a game can be thrilling on more levels than challenge alone, but then realised that Rez has that in buckets (the attempt for 100% on all levels).
I'm actually drawing blanks. The only reason why you wouldn't like this game is because it's repetitive, but then again, what game isn't the same process being applied many times in different settings?
