I have just fallen in love with the game Rez. I have absoluotly no idea what the game is about well apart from you fly round a computer shooting viruses and stuff but other than that?

I think it's just that hypnotic beat the developers have invented. It runs rings around your brain telling you to keep playing. I started to play and almost found it impossible to turn my console off. The colours have also got a hypnotic effect, it just draws you in. I think SEGA hired a master of hypnosis to create a game idea that people will not stop playing even though the games a load of rubbish.

Sorry have to go now and play Rez.... OOOoooh colourful.

Well, the sounds are all made by WaveMaster- formerly Sega's music department. So you expect it to be pretty good.

I'm still on the "beyond stages". I can play as a Morolian (the bad guys from Space Channel 5) and up to the final level to start. I also have the new colour mode. How do you get more stuff? Do you justr have to get a better and better score?

I'm doing the main story mode, and have opened up stage 3, I think.

However, when I "level up" to a better shape and finish the level, how do I save my new level? If I quit and then come back, I start off with the basic level again.

If you see what I mean? I haven't explained it too well...

In "play/story" mode, if you exit the game you are always returned to the 1st form. Don't really know why, but that's just how it is.

New levels, colour schemes and other bonus stuff in "beyond" mode are unlocked in many ways - but mainly by topping the high score tables.

There is also a full ending where "eden" thanks you for being her saviour. The first time I finished area 5 and returned eden to her human form I didn't get it. I did eventually though.

It's just a one-off.
The way the lock-on shooting, the psychedelic graphics, the music, the sounds & the vibration all merge together as one.
It's unique.

How did you get that ending? Is it after doind loads of "beyond mode" stuff, or just replaying the game with high scores (if so, what mode?)

To be honest, I don't know for sure, but I think I got the full ending when I completed "direct assault" (in beyond mode) with a good high score (about 900,000pts).
But like I said, it just happened one time and I didn't note how I'd done it.....
