Rez HD and Chessmaster Live land on XBLA

If you've been waiting impatiently ever since Rez HD was first announced for Xbox Live Arcade, then today is your lucky day because it's finally here. If, on the other hand, you haven't been waiting for the game with bated breath, then we'd say it's still probably your lucky day because Rez just so happens to be a good game. We suggest you crank up the synesthetic, vibratory goodness as soon as possible. If, however, all that sounds like too much stimulation, perhaps you'd rather play a leisurely game of chess. It's still your lucky day then because Chessmaster Live is also available today. Both games can be yours if the price is right. The right price, incidentally, is 800 MS Points each.

Is Rez HD really worth my 800 points?

Looks Dope. And I think you use your own music to play to. Is that right guys??

No, a big part of it is the Japanese trance music. Try it out man, you'll love it. Beat it again already this morning:)

Picked up Rez and its totally sweet but chessmaster gave me the creeps, like an old 3do game or something.

Chessmaster's been around for years and years. I can never deal with those 3D boards though - I prefer the 2D analytical board.
Magic Whiskey @ Jan 30th 2008 12:46PM
When it comes to board games, ya know what? I want a really good 'Shanghai' style Mah Jongg Live game and Scrabble...I'd buy those.

I'm going to say this, and you guys can comment. I'm having more fun with Rez HD than any game I played last year. Done. Talk amongst yourselves....
