How Tetsuya Mizuguchi was inspired to make Rez Infinite on PlayStation VR - The veteran creator explains why he’s re-inventing his classic action game

One of his influences was Xenon 2! :wub: :lol: :P I am now officially interested in this.

Going back a bit, but I swear that font is just the Dreamcast font. I swear a good number of games on DC i've played have had that exact font.

It reminds me somewhat of Electroplankton.

So far this year, I have eaten NO mince pies.

I really hope this is good in VR, I've ordered a copy on disc from the US, but I'll probably buy it digitally too.

They really need to market the game a bit more though, not sure many of the people I know who are buying a PSVR even know the game exists.

It's apparently the best game for PSVR on launch also.

His may have just tipped me over the edge. Apparently if I order from John Lewis before 8pm I can get it, the camera and the move controllers for 2pm tomorrow collection.
God. Want.

I caved. This game is a lot harder than I expected it to be. Took me like 6 attempts to finish the first boss area haha.

Yeah, I found it relatively easy to get through to the boss - albeit I don't know if leveling-up along the way to 10 is a good or bad thing to do? - but I wasn't sure where to shoot the boss.

At first I thought you had to shoot the bright button bits but I think you're better off shooting the moving arm bits that splay out.

I've played the game so many times that none of it is really a challenge to me, though having said that it did take me a couple of attempts to beat the Boss Rush mode.

For a high score you are best of having 8 lockons every time you let go. Some items won't give you a score but you can still use them to increase the multiplier for stuff that does score points.

Of course the issue with that is that if you are waiting to get 8 every time you might get hit by something in the meantime. If you are getting swarmed then just use single or double lockons (or an Overdrive if you have one).

Oh and I'm not sure what control method people are using, but in VR I'd recommend not touching the analogue stick at all.

Seeing as this is out on PC now this topic really needs to be on the front page.

One thing I'm not sure I've seen mentioned about the PC version of the game is that they've brought back online Leaderboards. Along with the extra graphical options the game offers on PC its a good reason to buy this version even if you already have it on PS4.

Comparison of all the different versions of Rez, well worth a look...

strawberry float me did they make the game harder? I cannot beat Mars (Tera) on PC for the life of me, and I've been playing this game for nigh on 10 years now.

Urgh.
