Holy crap. The highest one I reached was 26! Admittedly, I did it by continuing. I was just going through to see what the levels were like. I should have stuck with it one further. OK, gotta fire up S ...

Wait, they still haven't wiped the leaderboards? I got my 360 a few weeks after the game came out. I assumed they wiped it only a few days after it was released. That sucks, but I guess it's not like ...

OK, dumb question but please help me out:

I knew I'd find some folks into this game here at TGQ. I don't have a PS3 but am really interested in this game. I can't seem to find any reviews so far today.

So please, give us some impressions. ...

It's taking the PS3 nearly a year to get its legs with HS and Motorstorm being about the only good original titles.

These short-but-sweet games should have been launch or launch window titles.

I need to get back into Rez. Like Shaper, I haven't beaten it and unlocked the other modes. My problem is if I play it for more than an hour straight my thumb starts hurting. Maybe I'm must a wimp.

Huh. I hadn't heard that. Thanks for the tip. I definitely want a second wireless controller, but those things are expensive these days. I'm not buying a wired one, though. F wires.
