I was raised in an era when you went to the store and bought your atari 2600 game based on the box art.

Game Review: Rez HD (Xbox 360) Perfection?
The progression of the levels, the graphics, the vibration functions, the updated sound and visuals all come together in what can only be described as a work of art. It was a good game before, but the changes and additions made to this $10 version take it above and beyond the Rez you may have played in the past. This is an absolute must-buy for any video game fan; Frank and I have been discussing what we would have done to improve the game, and we can't think of anything. This is a completely-realized experience that will take full advantage of your home theater.

Well worth the 800 points.
It's like panzer dragoon without the textures, or the fun. And it's hard as fuck to understand what the hell is going on half the time.
Take away the dragons and add Tron. I just don't understand the appeal.
Lumines pulled off the whole "trance gaming" thing a lot better. Maradon! fucked around with this message on 02-09-2008 at 11:10 AM.

Fixed.
I just don't see what a panzer dragoon clone does to warrant that kind of praise. Panzer Dragoon Orta had good graphics (with textures!), more diverse gameplay with three totally different upgradeable dragons, an awesome sense of scale, memorable and atmospheric music, and a compelling story to boot.
Not one of these are present in Rez, and yet Rez gets people orgasming over it, seriously calling it one of the greatest games of all time, and Panzer Dragoon Orta pretty much slipped by without too much fanfare and is forgotten already.
Is it seriously raver drug culture that's propping this game up? I can't see what else it could be.
simple concept and gameplay, impressive, yet minimalistic visuals, and a really badass techno/trance theme
there's no flaws in the game really, even though the game is not very deep
