Rez HD Priced, Uses Extra Controllers as Trance Vibrators, Due Out 'In a Few Weeks'
by Chris Faylor, Jan 08, 2008 8:58am PSTThe Xbox Live Arcade remake of the cult classic on-rails shooter Rez will hit "in a few weeks" and sell for 800 Microsoft Points ($10), developer Q Entertainment has confirmed.
Originally developed by now-defunct internal Sega studio United Game Artists, the update, which is being overseen by Rez creator and Q Entertainment founder Tetsuya Mizuguchi, enhances the PlayStation 2 and Dreamcast original with high-resolution assets and 5.1 sound.
Though the downloadable title will not support the USB
Trance Vibrator that accompanied the PS2 release--supposedly meant to enhance the game's bass-heavy soundtrack for those unable to crank their subs--Joystiq reports that gamers will be able to utilize up to three Xbox 360 controllers to provide additional vibration feedback.

How do you redeem the 'free Xbox game' or whatever?
Is it possible to redeem this? Because I want Rez more than I want life.

My main question is - why is this coming out for the 360 and not for the Wii? The controls are basically perfect for the Wii mote as all you do is move a large cursor around the screen to fire at objects. Its a little tedious with an analog stick, but would be awesome on the Wii. How the heck was this overlooked?
