In case you weren't aware, Rez HD just went up on Xbox Live Arcade. My full review was posted earlier tonight, but I'll summarize it for you here: Rez is one of my favorite games of all time, it's been upgraded to HD, and it's now available for $10. It really doesn't get any better than that.
To people that owned the original (which is not many of you, as apparently only 40,000 copies of the PS2 version were ever released in the U.S.), this version is absolutely worth getting if you own an HDTV. HD makes such a difference.
And to those of you who've never played the game before, now you have no excuse. But be warned: as an on-rails shooter, it may not seem as impressive as it should at first. Give it time, though, and you'll truly revel in its complexities. As an experience, it's simply unmatched. Level 5 is where the whole thing comes together, and if you're not fully entranced by then, you have no soul.
Rez HD may not be for everyone, but to those who appreciate what's been attempted and largely pulled off by the game, you're in for an absolute treat.
