I really want that game, but I'm wondering if its really worth the trouble of trading or buying it. Is it really a gem or is it over rated? I love shooter and niche titles, but some are over rated.

I'm a bit biased though, but I do honestly love the game.

Let me put it this way.. look at my collection of games. Seriously, click the link. To this day, this is the one game that I consistantly pull off of my shelf to just play a game and chill out. My brother says it is "meant to be played on acid", but I dunno about that.

Ditto on that point. My dad even went so far as to call it "art". I'm pretty sure he's right.

I think I need to get that game now. The closest one in my area is 100 miles away. (fu@k that) I might have to ebay it. I hate trading or selling my games. I did that with my NES, genesis, and PS1 games and I hate myself to this day.

It's short, but in the same vein as Ico, it's definitely worth experiencing.

i am forever in debt to rebthor for trading me his sealed rez for my sealed la pucelle tactics & $8...and la pucelle was from the $19.99 target deal....thanks again rebthor

I was actually playing it today on DC and it is still simply mind blowing. It's basicly Panzer Dragoon on acid. And yes, it is art. It's more of an experience than a game.

if you like shooters you will like this. It is a little bit short tho, and what ever you do, do not get a used trance vibrator, you dunno if the grrl using it had any stds.

The best thing was the music, but I have to ask you, do you have a base? Because the game is infinitely better when you windows are shaking from fear (best song in the game).

Still wish I hadn't lost my copy. :( How much is it going for nowadays, anyway?

great game, but I can see how some people may not like it. I'm a Dj so I love the music and I love the gameplay. It's short but if your the type that must score 100% perfect on each level then it does have replay value.

Having worked for TechTV, I wrote this a few years ago for Extended Play (as well as helping produce the TV review).

Though I can't seem to see the rating in this G4TechTV version, I did give it a 5 out of 5. Here's the Metacritic listing to prove that:

To this day, I feel quite proud in giving it the highest rating among the gaming media.

I should go on a man hunt for this game. I love old school rail shooters.

From a gameplay point I'd say it's a stripped down Panzer Dragoon. Fun? sure, but the real draw point of rez is it art-like graphics.

So its not as fun as panzer dragoon. I love my xbox version, best game I've ever played. (shooter wise)

I did not say that, I said stripped-down, as in simpler. It's up to you whether it's better or not. Personally I liked Rez and resent returning it for Tekken 4. I have a REALLY bad problem of getting rid of rare games for next to nothing.

Is Rez hard to find in general or hard to find at a cheap price?

is this the game with the Trance Vibrator? if so, can anyone get me a good review of that? if they used it? jk jk, but really, any review of the REZ+TRANCE?

this is my review of Rez (from when i did a stint on GAF)... I've been told that it's fairly accurate: http://www.gamesarefun.com/gamesdb/r...hp?reviewid=90
