 The final title was meant to be a contraction of "Resolve", but during a studio visit from "Edge Magazine" staff, he was inspired to connect it to the concept of "de-rezzing" from the 1982 movie "Tron".A different source is given by Kobayashi, who stated the title came from the word "resolute".The first concept for the gameplay of "Rez" was that the player shot something down, and it created a sound in synch with background music, coupled with a vibration through the controller.
