IGN;Having just reviewed the HD re-release of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure and previewed a new Dead or Alive title, revisiting Jet Set Radio has been nothing short of surreal. Had you told me back in 2000 -- when these three games were spinning in my Dreamcast -- that I'd be writing about them 12 years down the line, I'd probably have thought that was awesome (and it is!). But I'd also wonder why. Why would anyone still care about these games over a decade later? For JoJo's, I'd say the reason is novelty, and for Dead or Alive, it's iteration. But the reason people still care about Jet Set Radio is entirely different.
Transmedia boss Justin Scarpone explains how the gaming giant is planning to become an entertainment juggernaut.
I think this is the first time anyone working for sega has actually confirmed it’s being made. There has just been a lot of rumors, speculation, and leakers, but nobody working for sega said specifically it was being made until now.
New screenshots and a video of the in-dev build from the supposed reboot of Jet Set Radio appear to have made their way online.
More environment interaction, and some parkour elements, that's what I wanted to see. Artistic style is different, but not necessarily bad.
Looking forward to seeing more.
"Would you stop playing with that radio of yours. I'm trying to get to sleep. Yay!"
Bring it!
Crazy Taxi and Jet Set Radio reboot rumours are heating up again as a new SEGA survey points toward a next-gen makeover for these iconic franchises.
I want to see a new ESPN Extreme Games, that first game on PS1 was so funny, and the video segments with that woman mocking you.
