Rez for PS2 $24.99 at ToysRUs (YMMV)

[rebthor]

They had several at the TRU on Flatbush Ave in Brooklyn, NY. Recently clearenced at this price. Don't know about other TRU, so YMMV

[Mr Peanut]

I already picked 2 up when that CC deal came up.

I wonder if I should get another?

[jousley]

rebthor...you have any you want to trade? Or would you pick one up for a fellow CAG?

[sm04as]

Is that the one behind King's Plaza?

....If it is I'll see if I can get some....any orders?

[rebthor]

Yes that's the one.

Sorry I can't pickup any for anyone else as I just happened to be working in that area today and stopped to get a gift for my kids.

[waxHead]

anyone willing to sell/trade Rez for something? I've looked all over for this game, but I at this point, I don't think I'm gonna find it.

[Masterkyo]

waxHead

You can PMs "rebthor" ask him/her to pickup a COPY For YOu. Rez $24.99 + Taxe = $27.XX + 3.50 Shipping (Media Mail) + Gas = Around $35 $35 Ship.

Still better deal compare to EBAY .

[metroidkiller9]

just picked up a copy at about 6:00 pm est. thanks for posting rebthor. sorry guys, i really wanted to pick up extra copies but i only had exactly 28 dollars on my credit card. its a good thing i didnt buy that pack of gum the other day.
BTW, only 2 copies left. hurry folks.

[waxHead]

I'd drive to the store myself if I had enough time over the next few days. I fear by the time I'll get to the store, these will be gone.

anyone able to pick up an extra one?

[sm04as]

I called them....kind of think they're gone already. Or they wised up and just took it for themselves.

craptacular :?

[sm04as]

I know....they kept putting me on hold and transferring me around...and then putting me on hold again. If I had known about this just a few hours earlier, I would have gone there in person.

[jt2k3]

Can someone pick me up one? Thanks in advance.

[metroidkiller9]

I called them....kind of think they're gone already. Or they wised up and just took it for themselves.

if youve ever been to that TRU before you'd know that they would have no idea what this game is worth. they arent very pleasant either so they probably just didnt want to check for you.

[sm04as]

I've been there a few times. I guess you're right...they seem annoyed if you ask them to price check things.

The guy who I ultimately was able to talk to was telling me to come "every day" so I could see if the game was in because they were always getting games....yeah, like I want to see them everyday.

[metroidkiller9]

well if i can get some money together ill be making another trip in a couple of days.

[jkam]

You know....I kept wondering what this whole REZ thing was about. So I got my hands on a copy of the dreamcast version. Now I understand...I can't put it down. I HATE THIS MUSIC TOO but for this game it is really cool how it works. If anyone can grab me a PS2 copy at this price that would rock.

[Theenternal]

JT2K3, I am going to TRU this weekend, If i find one ill pick one up for you. Im not a big fan of Rez, i played it when it first came out on DC...IMO i think that the fact that it has a lower print run+Druggies like it+shooter fans like it, are supporting its higher price.

[sailorchrono]

Hey, Eternal, can you pick up one for me to? I'd be more than glad to add any extra for shipping you need through Paypal! ^_^

[drone8888]

Yeah, I'll pay $35 for a copy.

Thanks.

I'm still looking for a copy as well. if there are any extra, please grab one for me, thanks!

[doraemonkerpal]

i'll checkout my tru tonight as well. if i see any, i'll buy up the whole bunch and let you alls have dibs. CAG rocks!

[jousley]

I had first dibs at the begining of the thread!! ;)

[SneakyPenguin]

my cc has one, marked at 50, dont know how much it actually costs. imo, its my fave ps2 game. i think its an incredible experience. not much in terms of gameplay, but its just beutiful. my dad called it art.

[waxHead]

was anyone able to find new copies of this game?

if someone found an extra copy, please PM me, I'd be happy to buy it.

thanks!

[MadFlava]

I agree, I finally found the game finally for $28 new and it's one of the most interesting games in my collection. I've been into Trance/Progressive House music for about 6 years now (no longer go to raves though, too old now) and this game seems to fuse the music I love with some of my favorite games of all time (Space Harrier and Panzar Dragoon). I've been playing it all weekend and find my self replaying the levels I have completed just to listen to the music. The visuals are also very unique. They remind me of some of my favorite movies when I was in elementary school like Tron and the Last Starfighter. Maybe I can seek in another round of Stage 3 before I go to work today....

I heard about the music in this game, one of the biggest reasons I want to try it out. I spin my own trance & prog trance/house, so I'd absolutely love to hear the stuff in this game. being a big shooter fan also plays into it a bit as well :D

[doraemonkerpal]

nope, none at my TRU. :(

[SneakyPenguin]

the music in this game is incredible. for a small sampling go here (http://www.ocremix.org/detailmix.php?mixid=OCR00694). its soo good im gonna get the cd from videogamsdepot.com. its a bit simple for a shooter, but its soo damn fun.

I would love to play REZ, but it is still $75 here in Finland, and I only have a PAL PS2 :(

you have to be kidding me... the music f$#*in ROCKS! fairly slow bpm, almost down-tempo in style, but it's DAMN GOOD.

makes me wanna head home and fire up my mixer and decks right now... :D

SneakyPenguin, thanks for the audio link and review, this is great ;)

EDIT:

you want to hear a great breakbeat/trance song? check out:

www.graylabel.net

then wait for the site to load. on the right side of the page, click on the GrayRadio button, which will open a Flash audio player. find the song remixed by Grayarea in my sig, Blackwatch & Greed's "Gentle Rain (Grayarea's Dismembered Mix)". click on it, and it'll load and start playing. good stuff.

heh...

also check out "Emerald (Grayarea's Speakeasy Mix)"... 8)

[Renzokuken]

ill also check if theres any copies at my TRU.

[SneakyPenguin]

most of the songs are fairly high tempo, more techno/rave. fear (the one that was mixed) is imo the best. its slow, builds on itself, and is just plain awsome.

[Steggy]

SailorChrono my store has a few left... I could be willing to go get you one in exchange for a certain game.... lol

Hey thanks for the link to www.ocremix.org. These remixes for videogame music is awesome. I finally found a place where I can download songs from my favorite videogame composer of all time, Yuzo Koshiro. For those who don't know him, he did the music to Revenge of Shinobi, Streets of Rage 1-3, Actraiser, and most recently Shenmue. It was this videogame music that really got me hooked on electronic music in the first place. I definitely recommend the Streets of Rage remixes on this site. They are awesome.

[MauMauProductions]

Comack Toys R US:

I got one....I think I'll eBay it since I dont like it much.

[eXiT M4]

[waxHead]

I'll do my best to make it worth your while 8)

slightly off topic, wax head, grayare rawk. i'm seeing shadow in two days in beantown. you might be familiar but i just watched an incredible film using various songs from entroducing, psyence fiction, etc. dark days http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0235327/. i don't suppose you found this site via the old naughtybooth, hah :)

Yea, that's the OC remix w/ the stuff from Dune. That remix is in my main playlist on my iPod. ;)

resident,

yeah, I love Grayarea. both their own tunes and their remixes are amazing. they're definitely one of the better producers doing breakbeat/prog trance at the moment. they just released a promo 12" on Hope called "Gravity", haven't picked it up yet. hmm... think I might do that right now ;)

about the Shadow show, is that the Quannum tour w/ Blackalicious, Latyrx, etc? I'm seein him down in NYC on the 19th at Irving Plaza, probably the fourth or fifth time I'll have seen him in NYC. he always puts on an incredible show, caught him during his Private Press tour a few times about a year ago.

I've never seen Dark Days, always meant to rent or buy it. I do have his 45 that was released about the time the movie came out, might've guessed that by my screen name 8) heard it's a terrific film, just haven't caught it on dvd yet.

as for cheapassgamer.com, I started goin to fatwallet.com after I used slickdeals.net for a while. then I kept wondering where the v-game stuff would come from, and found a post where someone mentioned this site... now I find myself here, a billion unopened games and a few systems later, but not much poorer :D

RIP naughtybooth, it cornered the market on NYC nightlife sites, too bad it went down.

[waxHead]

resident,

if you're interested, here's a clip I made from one of the songs in my sig:

Sauna - Mirage (partial mp3 link) (http://www.waxhead.org/audio/sauna-mirage.mp3)

[resident]

nice! i'll check it out when i get home. i've seen shadow's last tour and it was ace, i'm looking forward to this even though it's more the hip-hop style. (btw, dark days is available for ten bucks from the same rez link. i can not stress to you enough how much you will love this movie, seriously)

back on topic, no rez to be found in framingham, ma. i might pull the truigger on the $50 link if still available :o

so I received a package from BestPrices.com today, opened it up, and found... Sega Bass Fishing Duel for the PS 2 :evil:

suck.

I already called customer service, they're suposedly sending out Rez and mailer to return SBFD, but I fear the remaining copies of Rez are already gone.

anyone else receive Rez (or some wonderful replacement) from BestPrices?

[SneakyPenguin]

best prics actually is pretty good. i ordered 3 dvds, noramlly 90 total, for inly 55 shipped. came quick too. its not their fault rez is so damn rare. thats why i love living in the sticks. i was able to get sealed rez for 30, plus theres one at my cc, and i havent even checked TRU yet. i will this weekend.

[YoshiFan1]

I ordered from BestPrices a few years ago. They had Super Monkey Ball for $33 before Gamecube came out and I had the game 5 days before the Gamecube launch and was very impressed with both their price and fast shipping.

This just sounds like it was a mistake and if they take care of the problem, I still would think they are a reputable comapny.

Oh, I was impressed w/ the speed. But I'd also be more impressed if they fixed a problem on their site that they've known about (according to the phone rep) rather than continue on w/ a trail of lost customers in their wake.

FYI the new Naughtybooth is www.Rhythmism.com

thanks cheapy, i was wondering that.

wax, i saw the show last night, very good a little of everything, but it's mostly straight hip-hop just so you know, but well worth the price of admission (shadow on a dvd turntable :D )


back on topic, REZ link on best prices is bunk. they sent me bass fishing instead and said it was an inventory mismatch. luckily they have a customer service chat.

[cag1000]

hey cheapy ever go to nasa in 93
i just looked at that site u sent and they had a rewind of it last week think the buildings going down
dam i missed it
Nasa turned me and many others on back then to the rave seen just isnt the same with legit parties these days

[eXiT M4]

damn, i had the same problem. i got sega bass fishing duel. what a bummer. i sent them a email asking for a refund.

[mrtoki]

lol, sega bass fishing duel here too. and i thought that i finally get to check out rez. :?

[jeremyh]

Haha, Sega Bass Fishing Duel here too... :roll:

[eXiT M4]

did anyone get their full refund back on the mistake yet?
