Rez/shamen. Dawn run thoughts...

[andygates]

I swear, the designers of Rez are Shamen fans.  Running in the dark with traffic and dawn-glow, Librae Solidi Denari from Boss Drum could be straight from the sountrack.  I was even chasing an eye-cursor over the kerbstones to the sound of the hi-hat.

ravenbait introduced me to the joys of Rez while I was visiting.

I've since purchased it (yay Ebay!), and in his typical cyborg fashion, Martin crunched through the game and unlocked most of the extras. He really likes it, and I'm a fan of it too. I love the music - though in Beyond and the 5th level some of the music is a little too chilled out for what you're supposed to do.

Have you seen the Wikipedia entry, and the bit about the Trance Vibrator!

Martin and I actually sat through a Google Video of Area 5 game footage, which shows 100% Shot Down, Support Item and Analyzation! It was obvious from the video that the person must have completed Level 5 hundreds of times to get such perfect timing. It's also a great way to pick up some strategic tips for that section.

Wow. And you can get them on ebay!

(Of course for real perving you get a USB vibe that syncs to your Second Life Excite! branded genitalia; the internet is for porn)

Excuse me while I get a bit excited by the idea of a Wii synaesthesia game which might sync movement as well as sound effects, music, visuals and thump. Something between DDR and t'ai chi? Squizzle, goes my inner geek.

Last I heard Tetsuya Mizuguchi, the design genius behind Rez (which I have been telling people forever is one of the best pure video games ever made) is working on a new Rez for PS3 and Wii.

With the castration of the Yak Minter's light synth madness into a game free fiddlestick, I thought such persuits were a thing of the past.

Dreams do come true.
