If you want a song that is nigh-impossible to stealth, and have some way of getting, by all means play Son of A gun [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pz0TuTN6h6k] by KMFDM. Pretty good song too, I might add.

Rez is an old-ish PS2 game. There's a Rez HD for DreamCast and XBox Live arcade.
Eh, Rez on the PS2 is an inferior port of Rez on the DC, but neither of them is HD.

The XBLA version is the definitive Rez experience, though.

But even so, Audiosurf is more like a playable visualization plugin for Winamp than anything that tries to compete with Rez. Rez is specifically designed to give a certain type of experience but Audiosurf is more about seeing what'll happen when you throw a certain song at it.

I had to play it in the naughty way because Steam won't take debit cards but I would buy it because it was very cool.

Well I'm also using a Maestro card too but every time I put the card number in it just tells me to piss off and enter a valid card number. =/

Audiosurf is a pretty cool concept that plays well, but I have to say that taking videos of Audiosurf gameplay to major artists' songs is just a flimsy excuse for illegal music distribution. I mean, turn the volume off on any one of those videos - is that really something worth making a video about? No? Then you're basically just redistributing the song. Don't be too surprised if YouTube pays you a visit some time between now and 9 months from now shutting you down for uploading those.

Interesting for a time, though gets repetetive relatively quickly and I usually have better things to do while listening to my music.

Do you have any idea how many music videos are on Youtube? Tons.

There's tons of starving people in the world, too. It doesn't mean it's right.

My main complaint is just that making an audiosurf video isn't very impressive on the grounds that it's 2% audiosurf and 98% take credit for somebody else's music.

I wish. I'm actually John Bonham. Also, that was a lie.
