Give me an honest-to-God 5.1 soundtrack and widescreen/HD upscaling, and this will be the catalyst in my decision to purchase both a 360 and an HDTV.
God, this is so awesome. This is the Sega I remember...

what the dogg
DAMMIT now I want to buy a 360 exclusively for downloadable games, most of which I already own. Symphony of the Night, Puzzle Fighter, and now Rez? Fuck!
Add to that the supremely amazing N+ and I might be scrounging together some hundreds of dollars for some unreliable hardware.

Holy fuck YES.

Fuckfuckfuckfuck. I'm gonna buy a 360 SO HARD, my money's going to leave marks in the cash desk.
I wish I was kidding. That really seals it for me. And I can't even afford it right now.
Worst timing ever, for the best news ever. :lol

Probably... any time I can download a game and have it readily accessible is better than driving down to the store and buying a hard copy. This game is a perfect fit for XBLA.

Cult Classic Shooter Rez Comes Back To Life
On the Xbox LIVE® Arcade
Tokyo, Japan (Sept. 12, 2007) Tokyo-based video game developer Q Entertainment, Inc. today announced that the critically acclaimed video game title Rez is being developed for the Xbox LIVE Arcade with a target release date of Q1 2008. Originally released by SEGA in Japan in 2001 for the Dreamcast and PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system, followed by a North American release only for the PlayStation 2 and European release on both platforms in early 2002, Rez was developed by SEGAs United Game Artists (UGA) division. Tetsuya Mizuguchi, former president of UGA and current chief creative officer of Q Entertainment, conceptualized and produced the fast-action shooter, which is known to be one of the most unique, offbeat and eccentric games ever released.
We are excited to announce that Rez will be given a new life, this time in digital form, said Mizuguchi. The game will be presented in hi-definition and will be accessible to those who did not have a chance to experience Rez the first time around. Personally, Rez has been and will always be a lifelong concept. I hope to take what I learned from the experience of creating the original game and look forward to taking it to a whole new level in the future.
Carrying the slogan Rez will open your senses lets go to synaesthesia, the dynamic, total integration of visual presentation, sound and players input provided a rich aesthetic experience that was difficult to describe in words. While the basic gameplay was simple, critics called Rez the ultimate audiovisual experience and emphasized that it must be seen and heard to be fully understood. The old-school vector style graphics, sensory response and beat synchronization presented by the game set aside the title apart from the rest of the games that were released during that time.
Rez consisted of five different levels, each with its own unique visual theme and style, musical track and a boss battle at the end. The game also featured several different modes and plenty of unlockable elements, giving it a higher replay value. To further enhance the Rez experience, artists including Coldcut, Adam Freeland, Joujouka, Ken Ishii and Keiichi Sugiyama (SEGAs Wave Master) contributed tracks to the game.
Rez HD (title pending) for the Xbox LIVE Arcade will be a direct port of the original, delivered in hi-definition and 5.1 surround sound. Further details on Rez HD for the Xbox LIVE Arcade including pricing will be revealed at a later date.
