Rez Infinite

REZ is an old game, but don't get it for the nostalgia. Where this new REZ really shines is the all-new VR experience. I just got a VR headset to mess around with, and the sheer exhilaration I got blasting through the first few levels turned me into a giddy eight year old on his birthday. Born too early to live in a cyberpunk dystopia, but just in time to live out my TRON/Neuromancer fantasy for a while.

"Japanese games just suck. Except for Rez, it's so cool, I named my own game Fez." - Phil Fish, apparently, who is actually listed in the credits, for some strange reason.

It's Rez. Always 10/10.

Great nostalgia, also the winner of all these great areas in REZ, AREA - X!!!!

we need child of eden on steam like right about now this instant i say

It's Rez, a historical game and a faithful version of it with a little extra content. Aged very well and still engaging, the aesthetic is beautiful and timeless.

Well, the game couldn't detect my gamepad for some reason, so I used the ancient and reliable JoyToKey app to force it to work on my controller based off the game's keyboard controls.

absolutely beautiful.(can you add a debug mode? like when you beat the main game?)

a unique classic game with great vibes. very fun to zone out and enjoy the music while you blast stuff. also one of my favorite representations of cyberpunk style cyberspace/hacking

I love this aesthetic so much. I bounced off the game at first trying to use a controller, but it flows super well with mouse.

Rating: ★☆☆☆☆ (1/5)
A bad acid trip.

I played this solely on a monitor with a mouse. It might be a great experience in VR, but I don’t have a headset so this was my experience on a regular gaming setup. As a rail shooter it’s not fun to shoot things, the enemies never feel threatening, and the levels are just amalgamations of random 3D wireframes. Finally, I think the music totally misses the mark. I completely fail to understand how this became a cult classic.

Classic that is even better in VR. And after so so many attempts through my life, I finally got the real ending. Can uninstall and finally rest.

this game is so good that i 【ｔｒａｎｃｅｎｄｅｄ】 everywhere in my room

One of those games I really like. Not that I like playing that much (kinda repetitive) I just like that it exists. Also its cool in VR.

If you've never played this game in VR, do it. It's a trip.

A great Sega game from de DC era.

classic

OMG! I was about to uninstall the game after finishing it, ready to never play it again, then I saw the steam community posts about Area X, and thank god I did. Base game was a cool experience 7 out of 10. But Area X is something else, 11 out of 10. The idea that I might have missed that experience gives me chills. I played in a OLED 4k 144hz screen and it was the most beautiful thing I have ever seem in a game.

Think Star Fox meets Space Channel 5. That's this game, and god is it good.

I've owned multiple copies of Rez/Rez Infinite over the years. Dreamcast, Xbox 360, Playstation 4, Quest, and PC. Tonight was the first time I've ran through it in VR on PC and it's exactly what I needed after a terrible work week. I cannot recommend this game enough VR or no VR. It is and has been in my top 10 games of forever since I played it back in 2001 on the Dreamcast.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Fear Is The Mind-Killer

very underrated

I never played the original Rez but this is still a great experience in 2024. I'm not sure about 'synaesthetic' exactly, but it's been a while since I've enjoyed a game with such a well-designed and musically integrated flow. It's short, but only if you're _very_ good - and offers heaps of replayability. It's also the first game I've bought _for_ the deck rather than just happened to play on it and can happily report that it's a fantastic experience especially with (wired!) headphones.

If anyone reads this, can they tell me if the DLC soundtrack is a better mix than the one on spotify? It just doesn't hit the same as playing.

it rez

Very bad

It's like Panzer Dragoon/Star Fox meets LSD Dream Emulator. This game is pretty much an on rails shooter combined with a rave, featuring a catchy soundtrack & extremely trippy visuals. It's also very challenging, I still haven't beaten it myself. But, what I've played so far has been pretty magical, keeps me coming back for more & also keeps me hoping I can finally get past the third dang level.
